    What non-English club would the Circus recommend for the Champions league then? (Assuming the English clubs are overrated)

    Looks like the Magpies aren’t going to ruffle their feathers unduly on that soft sticky pitch. We need a going report in football as much as racing :-( Maybe fatigue will grease the goal machine in next ‘45

    Befair would know a lot more about GAA than I do but I’ll offer a call on the GAA Football Club Final (3.40) for what it’s worth!

    St Brigids of Roscommon look like a clever Mayo outfit (compliment) and they should give the more senior members of the Dingle team plenty to think about. But their semi-final looked weaker than that of Dingle. I think therefore the athletic prowess of several of the Dingle forwards may just tilt the pendulum in the Kerry team’s favour. The outright or -1 h/c bet is a lot safer because some GAA refs seem to like draws!

    Magpies played last four games at home, failed to score v Citeh Utd and Blackcats
    Playing PSG and Liverpool shortly so need goal practice!

    2 Magpie goals!

    Dingle / Magpies x 2 = 9/4 + Double Chance!

    Ended up having a look at first half of Tricky Trees v Gunners after all

    Struck by how relaxed and direct the Gunners are and they have had several great chances already. Even Money looks fair enough for them to take all three points in 2nd half for the purposes of this coin-tossing experiment!

    Citeh did look a little off colour
    We should have paid more attention to that injury list!

    Late game of little interest
    I’ll try a 45min Challenge again

    Chelsea v Bees 2 1st half goals
    Leeds v “Beavers” at least 1!

    2/1 + Double Chance!

    Everyone expecting 1-3 or say 2-4 on form but Carrick is now a fly in the ointment

    Citeh may be spending more time cooling the jets and will find easier matches to yank up their goal difference

    So it’s just an idle coin toss from me!

    Citeh score 2

    Tractor Boys and Hatters register on the score-sheet

    11/10 Treble Chance!

    Goal tally will depend on tactics especially of new Brom manager but changing tactics against Boro will be risky.

    Visitors can be lax and static at back judging by recent evidence so Brom counter attack may manage one or two. But Boro attack can look Arsenalesque so they should edge it

    Couldn’t get the online 5/2 + Over 3.5 so took a Boro Win BTTS as a 9/2 boost interest bet

    Competition best left alone but worth a fiver double Chance for 45mns interest tonight

    Magpies Win @ H/T v Citeh

    Chelsea v Arsenal tomorrow BTTS

    With their other commitments can’t see Mags giving much more than 45 mins intensity to these legs

    A couple of idle bets for the FA Cup

    Presumably Forest will be employing a fairly straight bat

    Could Wrexham win the Corner match @ 7/4!

    Paddy offering
    A goal in each half
    4 Corners each half
    1 card in each half

    100/30 – hope it’s alive at halftime!

    A damp squib would be easy for Arsenal to orchestrate but would be of little benefit to players with big games ahead

    Arsenal Win Over 2.5 goals 6/4

    In the hope of a half decent game
    Minimum stakes!

    That 7/1 about Pool scoring in first 15 mins might tempt Nathan! May be the only time they score!

    Tricky Trees, it’s either a dog fight tonight or a bigger dog fight in a months time! I’d take tonight!

    Forest Win BTTS 7/2

    Was going for Coin Toss 2 Forest Goals but they decreased the price :negative:

    Foxes were playing better opposition in December than Baggies of late. Need to make their passing game count against this big name crosses and breaks opposition. Time to put the skates on if they want to be in play-offs. Took the Leicester Score first and Win @ 2/1 to pay for my pint! Chasing wouldn’t suit their game.

    Fulham Beavers build a goal if not a dam against Redskins!

    St Brigids Qualify v Scotstown in 2nd GAA Semi Final

    Is todays Double Coin Toss!

    Games at Newcastle and Citeh Under 4.5 would have been my non GAA alternative Treble

    That Chelsea car crash on Saturday obviously too much for the manager too!
    If you had doubts about the Premier League that pathetic Liverpool header on goal in the first half would do nothing to dispel them!

    What I had in mind for Citeh tonight against the Blackcats before I was gobsmacked

    Foden to score 7/4
    Diaz to score 12/1 Long shot

    The recent handballs of Van Dijk and O’Brien as well as the late self-destruct in defence by the Chelsea globetrotters on Saturday will inform what football bets I entertain in ‘26. One final chance in ‘25!

    Magpies score at Burnley

    Irons v Seagulls Over 2.5

    Red Devils bag 2 v the Wolves

    7/4 Treble Chance!
