Cheeky weekend accumulator

By the way, on Bet365, a 2-1 win to Newcastle and the first goal from Enrique nets you 195/1 odds. Could be worth a quid.
 
I can never bet on Newcastle. Too much emotional attachment to add a financial one as well.

I did win big predicting Sunderland to finish a season with 18 or less points though <whistle>

I bet a mate at work (who was a neutral supporter) that the Toon would finish above Sunderland, we got relegated :(
Bastard still wanted his £10

An Everton supporting mate of mine said that Newcastle would get relegated in 2001 so I told him to put his money where his mouth is. The wager was £20. I said that Everton would get relegated and offered the same wager.

A month later we're a bit drunk and bravado came to the forefront and the wager went to £50.

A while later during another Friday after work session we raised it to £100.

Then it went to £200.

£250

£500

£1000.

Everton did look like they were possibly going to go down. He panicked, the wife forced me to relent and it went down to the original £20.

Everton survived and we spent £40 in the pub to celebrate.
 
Anyone got anything going this weekend?

I've gone for -

1 Arsenal v Sunderland (Backing Arsenal @ 1.43)
2 Newcastle v Everton (Backing Newcastle @ 2.62)
3 Man City v Wigan (Backing Man City @ 1.35)
4 Birmingham v West Brom (Backing Birmingham @ 2.35)
5 Cardiff v Ipswich (Backing Cardiff @ 1.82)
6 QPR v Leicester (Backing QPR @ 2.17)
7 Norwich v Preston (Backing Norwich @ 1.55)

£2 down to win £146.90. Not bad but slightly favouring the home teams!

Anyone else?

I live in Cardiff and they are not playing great at the moment. I'd say that games a draw all day.

I also think that Wigan will get a draw
 
1) brum vs baggies- draw
2)Bolton vs Villa - Draw
3) Fulham vs Blackburn- Draw
4)West ham vs stoke - Draw
5) Scunthorpe vs swansea- Swansea
6) Yeovil vs Hudders- Hudders
7) Cheltenham vs chesterfield- Chesterfield
8) Hereford vs Bury- Bury

50p --> 977.31
Here's hoping for my bank balance and newcastle's league position
