Feb 2011 w/e 2 Results & w/e 3 Predictions

Once again I have been somewhat abject at updating this blog.  Perhaps it was because I was trying to get over last weekends unsucessful wager?  With about 20 minutes left to play I was only waiting on two teams to score, but as you can probably tell from my tone this did not turn into a champagne moment.

With funds a little tight at the moment I was down to a single £2 Goal-Rush bet.  Last weekends Goal-Rush coupon, and results, are as follows;
Blackpool 1-1 Aston Villa
West Bromwich Albion 3-3 West Ham
Bristol City 0-2 Leeds United
Norwich City 2-1 Reading
Watford 1-3 Burnley
Walsall 0-1 Bournemouth

Amazingly it was two home teams that let me down!  And I would also like to note my displeasure at ladbrokes removing Peterborough United's games from the coupon!  Highly unjust and unfair I feel!

That leaves me at £42 staked and just £18 won.

And so onto this weekend, which is F.A Cup weekend.  There are lots of Rd4 replays though, and nothing is really taking my fancy.  However non-leave Crawley have reached the fifth round and have an exciting tie away at Manchester United!  With it on TV I've stuck a couple of pounds on United to win 3-1 at odds of 10/1. 

I also have a single line Goal-Rush for todays football, none of them are F.A. Cup games though, with the following games chosen;
Ipswich Town v Hull City
Leeds United v Norwich City
Portsmouth v Barnsley
Reading v Watford
Colchester United v Walsall
Hartlepool v MK Dons

My friends at Ladbrokes also run a free bet on a 5 game accumulator each week.  They chose the 5 games, you guess the results.  Get all 5 correct to win £5000.  I have had a stab at this this week and chosen the following results;
Birmingham City 2-1 Sheffield Wednesday
Stoke City 1-1 Brighton Hove Albion
Nottingham Forest 1-0 Cardiff City
Ipswich Town 2-1 Hull City
Manchester United 3-1 Crawley Town

Here's hoping for champagne!
