First bet I've had for ages and won again, £10 on Wednesday to beat Blackpool at 7/2.

Think I might get a new set of Guitar Hero drums with that... My Rock Band ones are kaput.

Nice! I have made a few bob betting on Exeter away as the odds are often very generous. That was last season, mind you. I probably wouldn't bet on them away this year!

I'm thinking of doing Inter and Real Madrid (-1) in a double, and a sizable single on overs in the Milan derby. Anybody else getting on these two games? If so, what are you going for?

The wife called me away to lift boxes and by the time I came back Inter were already 1-0 up. I'd have lost on the overs bet but the double would have easily covered that and then some. Why didn't I just put them on before letting her sidetrack me? :hat:

City are 9/2 (5.50) to win tonight and 11/4 (3.75) for the draw. Look like decent odds to me

Also, Villa are 11/4 (3.75) to beat Arse at Villa Park

I've gone for Drogba MOTM today as well as a few other small stakes Chelsea singles, and one live treble. I also stuck a tenner each way on Torres to finish top scorer in the league. Obviously Rooney is miles ahead but if Torres can stay fit once he comes back I'd expect him to bag another 10 goals at least, which would surely give him a shout of finishing in the top two, and 25-1 was too good to turn down.

Pah. I am on a self-imposed exile at the moment. When B'ham were 1-0 down I checked the odds on them turning it around: 9/2. Normally I would have popped some money on that.

I also messed around to see the odds for Chelsea today and almost broke the exile to go for 2-0 with Drogba to score first. 20/1.

I need another goal to go in...!

I've done all right today. Drogba will surely get MOTM which was a tenner on at 13-2. My live treble of Chelsea win, 12 or more corners and 45 points (disciplinary index) or less came in, too. I also had Drogba to outscore Arshavin at 15-8.

That's probably the happiest I've ever been with a Chelsea win.

That's free money. Who would offer such stupid odds? And did Drogba bag MotM?

Nice one! You on anything tonight? We always seem to draw 1-1 with Arsenal away so I'll probably stick a bit on that. I'll also go for over 3.5 goals because it's often been a case of one or the other when playing them. I'll also back Arshavin to perform his obligatory 'goal for every shot' routine. :(

Can't see much tonight that I fancy.

Am tempted with Wolves to beat Spurs...

Hmmmm I should have gone for that.

I have gone for a few accumulators on the lower leagues.

Soton v Pompey has some good odd and no clear favourite.

I've stuck a few quid on Utaka to score.
