Mug

Have realised it has been a while since I posted a bet, so for that I apologise. I saw J's post earlier this week and that is just the sort of thing that I feel has been happening to us since the start, good solid reasoning leading to a sensible bet that goes completely tits up. So enough of sensibleness and let's go for some wild mug punts. Arsenal are priced at 3.6 to beat Utd tomorrow. We are currently playing like a load of headless chickens and I am pretty sure that based on recent performances the fans would not have noticed had the Arsenal team been swapped for BFTD, they even have an injury list that can only be matched of BFTD of old Adebayor out injured (James' dislocated finger) Walcott out injured (Lawrence' broken finger) Sagna out injured (Gary's bad knee) and not forgetting poor old Eduardo from that horror tackle last year (Kieron's completely fucked knee). Utd on the other hand having been playing some good football and come into the game with a near full fit squad. Everything would lead you to the suggestion that Utd should walk it so that is where the sensible money is. I'm not doing this and gonna lump my first £10 bet on a home win.

I am also going to do another silly bet and bet on Davydenko to win the Masters Cup. He is undoubtedly in the easier of the two groups (avoiding both Federer and Murray) and with opposition such as Djokovic, Del Potro and Tsonga who like Davydenko all have had very mixed results this year it is worth a £5 punt at 30. Hopefully he might be able to sneak through or alternatively I will ask around the Russian maffia to see if he is likely to throw any of his matches so to lay him at a later date.
