Jenkins is a fine player and one of the best players to not win a major title, despite being in lots of semi's and finals, normally getting beat by phil taylor. He is around 33-1 to win the whole tournie, that seems a good price, one for scrotes outsiders thread, me thinks.

He wins, I celebrate. Back to £8.25 now.

OK last time I post ITT today. Put the remaining £8.25 on Nantes to beat Angers at home tomorrow at 5/6. Nantes home record is 5-3-1. Angers away record is 0-3-5.

[Dice Man]

10 minutes in, Nantes are up 1-0. Come on Les Canaris!

[Dice Man]

Bastards have equalised. All to play for now.

[Dice Man]

FML. They're losing 2-1 now! This is what happens when you employ a woman to be the 4th assistant.

[Dice Man]

Officially busto now. Epic 4,444th post.

Well this weekend sees some very intresting games and some good and bad prices from William Hill (online) as prices vary from online and in-store.

Good:

West Ham (EVS) v Portsmouth
As much as both sides are struggling I can aonly see this going one way, as bad as it sounds Portsmouth maybe bottom of the league, but for me they are still overachieving. They have a poor squad. I think the price is very good to be fair. I would have personally put this at 4/6.


Wigan (23/20) v Blackburn Rovers (15/8)
Probably the dullest game on the fixture list and if it's not postphoned, then I imagine Wigan will ease to victory as Blackburn are poor away. I also seem to think that Blackburn's price is piss poor.
Fulham (7/4) v Tottenham (5/4)
This could be a dodgy one, but the odds on Fulham to win are very big in my view, after a fantastic result over Manchester United. This could go either way, but home advantage and the fact that Fulham are fantastic at home, points me in their direction.

Reading v Swansea (13/8)
In my view these are two poor sides, but Swansea are more clinical, whilst Reading just go foward with nothing pretty much. I don't think these are good odds, but I think I'll back Swansea this weekend.

Port Vale (6/5) v Burton Albion
These two teams are both sat in the middle, but Port Vale are a very good team and could be doing a lot better than they are now. I think home advatage will see me backing these.

Bad:

Arsenal (4/7) v Aston Villa - I think 4/6 is suitable. I imagine that they are 1/2 on coupon.
Cardiff (2/5) v Plymouth
Leeds (3/10) v Hartlepool - You'd think that Leeds are Premiership and Hartlepool are League two from that price. Pretty appauled by this price.

Those smiley face things are supposed to be 8! I will be backing West Ham massively tomorrow.
