    Hot Shots

    I’m going to pick a player or players and they get 6 lives each the first 3 lives will be bet 1pt and the last 3 lives bet 2pts a total of 9pts bet on 1 player if all lives are lost. Any odds lower than 4/1 will be NO BET.

    If a player scores the 1st goal they start again at the 1st life.

    With the resurgence of ward 7 thanks to the return of old silly Billy and his Son MrE I thought I’d stick something up for you all to laugh about… :rose:

    The conundrum is how to pick the selections..??
    Trainer.?
    Jockey.?
    other system selection to fit staking plan.?

    Due to it being a points system I’m going to have to do a maximum of only 1 bet per day on days I’m working
    Billy boy hasn’t done a days work since 1937 when he retired from grave digging at the ripe old age of 58
    I’ll get there but until then can only do so much… :wacko:

    Rachael Blackmore seems a jockey in the good books so I’ll tinker with her for now
    She has a few rides at Punchestown tomorrow/today in 2 minutes at around the minimum price I’m after and the one that I’ll play is

    Kupatana 11/2 bog
    12.40 Punchestown
    1pt win

    I think you can find jockey and trainer form tables on the Skybet site.

    Hello Young Nathan.

    I know you like a footie bet and see you have started some “Six Lives” posting which has prompted my post to you or maybe others too.

    I like a small Saturday acca, small as in stakes, I do not set selection numbers, maybe, 3-4-5-6-7-8 etc.

    It has been proving overall a losing interest because I am not really very good with footie.

    I have tried the WIN DRAW WIN predictions betting only those thought to win 3-0, which is not that special. The Sporting Life acca of 4 has been a bit better and provided the occasional return.

    Can you provide an easy system or site which may see me through to the end of season?

    Thanks Purwell although I still can’t find anything
    Bill I don’t really use sites as such because I watch alot of it anyway live or highlights. Twitter can be useful for news regard injures and starting line ups are quicker on there.
    There are some good sites about though. One was very good but I’m sure it slowed down my pc after every time I used it so gave up on it. Elcareto did put forward a good stat based one which had a lot of info to play with regard systems.

    Today’s bet didn’t go well drifted out to twice the price and one of the others Blackmore was riding Burrows Saint just won at 13/2.

    I guess a Bank Holiday footie programme is much about the same as a busy Saturday.

    New Years Day Sporting Life Footie acca: –

    Birmingham – Wimbledon – Colchester – Northampton = 14pt. return BetVictor

    Oooppps!

    It sounds as if you do not want your main thread cluttered with other unwanted clutter Nathan.

    Sorry.

    You did mention I never step outside of Ward 7, there was a reason for this, sorry if you think I am going off subject but finding things, forum wise, that is, all became a bit too much for me to keep track of and so I took a break, quite a long break and it remains so, keep dodging from this place to the next trying to keep abreast sends my bran into a bit of a spin and so I thought a thread about football would be OK to post the Sporting Life acca and ask if anyone could provide a simple acca results system.

    I am sure you did not intend a rebuke as I read it, but it did make me think about the exclusivity regarding keeping threads clean and simple whereas I am very much used to living in a muddling sort of way, it does drive poor Daphne a little bonkers but you would think having been together for 62 years, yes we met when both of us were 15, anyway you would think she had become used to me by know. I don’t mean any harm.

    Make pots of dosh in 2020.

    Doesn’t look like to be any Irish Jumps meetings until Sunday
    So I’ll rack my head around the stats and stick in multiple jockeys
    It could get ugly, not quite as Ugly as seeing Bill in stockings but messy enough anyway..

    Thanks Bob
    I once had a whole season of profit on the football with this
    not convinced it’ll work on the horses but no harm in giving it a go
