    Bit of an Arsenal fan but used to be a Wigan fan (not in the real sense of fan of course). Wigan are fighters and Arsenal on the slide. So, I'm going to be bald (reckless) and have £2k on Wigan.

    I think we are going to get battered on this one Ron. Normally my previous bets have been pretty confident with Wigan, but Arsenal...nah just can't see it, so i expect to lose my £500 although the 500 notes on a draw could be a far better chance.

    I fancy Sheff Utd getting something against Hull though, only 2 defeats in 15 games. Nigel Clough might pull off something special here.

    Cheers Ron, not sure how I made that mistake.
    Can I just check the rules, I assume that a draw is the result after normal time? Therefore for a win does that need to be after 90 mins or after extra time/pens? Or could I possibly win on both my bets if both games are draws at the end of normal time and then arsenal and hull go on to win?

    The rules are in the thread header CW. Scores are as at 90 mins.

    I'm happy my £500 on Wigan draw came in :)

    Just need Sheff Utd to do me a favour now.

    Closing Balances. Please note that the Opening Balances shown above were calculated and posted after the bets from brb and Ron had been posted and recorded and are therefore £2,000 and £2,500 below the true opening balances.
