    Good luck! Would be mad if you won. I can see QPR possibly edging Villa but both could easily be draws!

    Same to be honest.

    Bound to be one of them which cocks it up though so I ain't holding my breath.

    Have you covered yourself in them? Better to be guaranteed a little bit less.

    I can't see how I can guarantee them?

    Outside of my bet predictions there are four other possible results:

    Villa win
    QPR win
    Norwich win
    Sunderland win

    If I covered myself with bets on these, then I'd still have to win my original accumulator bet, otherwise the win from any of these bets wouldn't be as much as the money I'd placed on the four bets, so I'd just lose out.

    I'm probably missing something incredibly obvious here.

    OPR Win
    Norwich Draw

    Won 20 quid off a £2 accy yesterday and i was buzzing after that, i'd end up humping strangers if i won anything above £1000.

    Well the idea is you cover them by betting so much that you would win the same amount of money as the original bet. In this case though you have 4 results which can **** it up which might not make it worth it.

    Well the original bet was only £4 (these last two games are part of a 10 game accy with massive odds), so if I lose that I'm not really arsed.

    QPR down to 10 men with three mins or so left. OH WELL it was a nice thought.

    It's gutting when you get so close. I prefer all mine to **** it up rather to getting within one match.

    Doesn't he still need a Norwich v Sunderland draw? If so he's getting close...

    Now you could think about covering yourself. 750 win on Sunderland and 750 win on Norwich and whatever happens in the game you leave with roughly £1500profit. Just a thought. Would be bittersweet if it ended a draw though....

    Both sets of teams would be happy with a draw I imagine so that's to his advantage.
