    It had been getting a bit boring of late Sparkey. Nice to see a return to red after a spell in green.

    Admit that the blue shorts with the green shirts was a bit of a clash.

    Still over £211 profit if you cash out.

    Weighing it up daily Dai - trouble with me is I can't get that potential £566 profit out of my head. <laugh>

    In the words of The Clash - should I stay or should I go? Take what I'm offered or stick it out?

    Going to hang in there over the Xmas period and have a look then.

    Don't blame you Sparks £566 not to be sniffed at, if it was me I don't think I could take the pressure £300 profit and I'd go.

    Cash in the top 6 bet to cover your outlay then let the rest roll.

    Bloody good shout remote!! Do you think it'll get over the ton if we beat Hull on Saturday and is it worth waiting?

    I know it'll depend on other teams' results over the next couple of weeks but we've got 3 home games in our next 4 fixtures and the away game is at Bolton.

    I'll make a commitment now to pull the plug on that one if it reaches the ton in that time, and leave the rest in place for later. <ok>

    Always full of good ideas when it's other people's money.

    Or cash in the top two one if it rises a bit more over the next few weeks. Top six will always be a safer bet. Not so much fun though!!!! Ah! Sod it! Keep them all going. It's not my money as CCFC says. Although, it seems to be OUR money already!!!

    Yep. Definitely a team effort now. :1980_boogie_down:

    One word of warning though Sparks. If Barry Tiger offers you advice ignore him. The bookie under the Ninian Stand beams in anticipation when he sees him making a bet. <doh>

    My mother always said 'blue and green should never be seen' - she was right.

    I liked the green strip when I first saw it but have gone off it since.

    Sparkey, there were plenty of Leicester fans who cashed out, but think of those brave souls who stuck to their guns. They were rolling in it. Question is are you as brave as them? Mind you, you don't stand to win as much as some of those much publicised fans. :emoticon-0164-cash::emoticon-0164-cash::emoticon-0164-cash:

    Don't quite understand this, the "to finish top 6 cash out" has gone up overnight from £92.05 to £93.75 for no apparent reason.:emoticon-0138-think:emoticon-0138-think

    What do they know that we don't - have we signed somone?.....<laugh>

    Either that or the star striker of one of the chasing pack pulled a hammy in training yesterday.

    ......or maybe one or two of our guys are back?

    All we've got to do is win our games to stay there, but they must factor in other fixtures as well.

    With Villa playing Derby and Preston playing Sheff Utd on the weekend, someone is going to drop points.

    I've said before, the big betting guys have someone sneaking around all grounds and picking up little knocks, arguments or whatever and they feed back to the central office with all this stuff, where someone analyses and comes to a conclusion. They earn big money at the centre and are even allowed to bet, based on their knowledge , with competitors. Like CCFC says, someone somewhere has seen something.
