Not sure how the odds would work out but I feel like
Liverpool 2-0 or 3-0
Arsenal 1-0 or 2-0Covering all 4 possibilities would pay quite often, unfortunately I doubt the odds would make it worth it.

Charles Darwin to conquer the World
Not quite back but had an amazing summer homeless for three months and worked everyday.
Spent more time outside than ever and as it was summer appreciated the fresh air and proximity to nature particularly the time between night and day where wildlife are at their most comfortable with no fear from us…
I found myself able to write poetry and kept it up throughout my time without permanent accommodation.
I kept it all on my phone and of the fifty or so pieces that I wrote this one,
The Perfect Rose 🌹 is one of the best (imo) I’ve got a book deal! I’m producing my own paperback Anthology of my work whilst homeless June, July and August.
I’m producing a show on Friday in Felixstowe along with a fellow poet Paul Charlton and a brilliant unplugged musician Acoustic Guitarist Ash Carr who is seeking a recording contract. We’ve even got a fashion show going on in the midst of all this with the local vintage clothes shop run by theatre director Sally Broatch, Sally B’s parading her collection of vintage dresses 👗 during regular intervals. There’s a ten per cent donation from the ticket sales for the night to SHELTER.
This all takes place this Friday September 27 th at the Orwell Hotel Hamilton Road Felixstowe at 7 pm and for good measure, it’s my birthday.
so it’s happening for me for real and I’m at peace and in good order and happily single.

“The perfect rose”The perfect rose would fit in your hand .
But in a cut crystal vase is where it could stand.
On top of a pedestal for all to see.
A frangrance not obvious, but smelt subtley.
It’d stand on its own,
all alone, so aloof.
If played at a theatre, It’d bring down the roof!
This elusive rose so hard to find, real, not imagined, no trick of the mind .
The grower so happy that this is his year.
He’s nurtured this one so tender and dear.
And finally this is it . It’s actually here.
Hes happy, he’s excited, can’t hide his delight.
All his clients he’s invited to its opening night!
Ten years of planning of sweating and toil.
Adjusting the texture and changing the soil
All of the chemicals he’s had to hand.
Then he’s gone organic.
He finally understands.
The critics acclaim him,applaud him and laud him.
They now jump to his whim, but can they afford him?!
He’s no ordinary Joe now, that’s perfectly clear.
This genius of a gardener’s raised the rose of the year!
The money men confront him and offer a deal.
We’ll pay a kings Ransome, if you’d just reveal, the formula of your success.
Just give us a feel!
We digress!
We’ll pay you a fortune and do it ourselves.
In the space of six months, it’ll be on all our superstore shelves
We’ll grow it in great numbers we’ll export it too.
Sell us your name and we’ll credit it to you.
We have the marketing that you cannot do.
That is why we’ll take over from you.
We might adjust your methods to account for our needs.
It’s all well being organic, but our need is speed .
Our modern methods will help us ensure that we can produce more more and then sone more!
Your organic ways are noble and fine, but we deal in markets where money is time.
Sign on the dotted line,
we’ll take it from here.
You’ve been a tad subtle but our intentions are clear.
To turn beauty into a beast And become billionaires!
If we cut a few corners,
just here and there, it’s obvious to us, you are going nowhere.
Sign on the dotted line.
Give in to our plan.Well the man of the moment stood up and spoke.
It’s true what you say
I’m just a small bloke.
But what I’ve produced what I hold in my hand,
is something so perfect, you wouldn’t understand.
You see I’m a gardener a son of the soil.
To make this great rose I’ve had to toil.
I had great ideas and like you I’d cut corners .
Like you I ignored when natured tried to warn us.
I’d fight the fight and just wouldn’t listen.
The battle against Mother Nature was a war of attrition.
But finally Nature won over me.
I threw out my potions and worked organically
And finally the method revealed itself to me.
If only I’d reasoned,
I must have been nuts.
Nature has its own cheats, it’s own shortcuts.
Now this formula you speak of, I’m afraid it’s not for your eyes.
Your intentions aren’t honourable, and that’s no suprise .
As for all your plans,
I’ll do it myself.
My wonderful rose won’t grace your superstore shelf.
My plans for my plants are not for shopping tourists.
I’m staying in my town and taking them to my own local florist’s.70/1 Sheffield Wednesday v West Brom 2-4

😮 .. so close
I could have gone 3-2 either way in the Brentford/Bournemouth game. Decided on Bournemouth as they had the momentum of beating Arsenal and City recently. The prices were the same but could have gone Brentford had they of been the underdog in the market.
The main thing is City lost…😅
