Tottenham vs Portsmouth As soon as it's out there in the ether there's no going back, but I'll say
it anyway, Portsmouth at 10/3 to beat a badly struggling Spurs? Bet
of the weekend, I'd say. Of course Sod's Law dictates it'll end up a
Tottenham romp but there's nothing beyond the world of jinxes and
superstitions to offer any hard evidence for this. Spurs have scored just twice in the league, both of which were against
bottom side Sheff Utd, and when you can't put the ball into an empty
net from 2 yards out you're really going to struggle. Unlike Bolton, Spurs aren't the type of side who can sit back and allow
the opposition to come on to them, they need to put the opposition on
the back foot. Portsmouth could feel a little unlucky to have lost the
game on Monday after conceding their first of the season and then
laying siege to Bolton's rear guard. To Portsmouth's credit they continued to pummel away and forced a
number of good saves from Jaaskelainen and on the evidence of the
season so far they shouldn't just beat Spurs this Sunday but should also
be looking down the table at them come May. Verdict
BET365 Weekend Preview
Bolton are 11/4 with bet365 to continue their 100% home record against
Liverpool and it could be a price worth taking.
The Trotters are difficult to beat, especially at home but if you think Liverpool's
mini-revival is set to continue, they can be backed at 10/11 with bet365.
There's four other Premiership matches on Saturday and bet365 will be
covering every one of them "Live In-Play", so you can bet on each match
as the action unfolds.
Arsenal are 4/7 to continue their winning streak at Charlton, who can be
backed at 9/2 for their second win of the season. Many bet365 customers
will fancy Villa at a tasty 17/2 to grab a shock win at Stamford Bridge -
Chelsea are 2/7.
Meanwhile, Everton are 5/6 to take all three points at home to City (3/1),
while bet365 can't split Sheff Utd and Middlesbrough - they're both 6/4 to
win their match at Bramall Lane.
Reading are a massive 3/1 with bet365 to grab all three points against a
lacklustre West Ham outfit. They'll certainly be out for revenge over their
former manager after he left in acrimonious circumstances.
The Hammers are 5/6 to get their season back on track, while there'll be
support for the draw at 11/5. Meanwhile, bet365 make Blackburn 10/11
to continue their winning run v Wigan (13/5), while Man Utd will feature in
a lot of bet365 accumulator bets at 4/11 to beat Newcastle (15/2).
In Sunday's televised clash, Spurs are 10/11 to get their season back on
track, while Pompey look big at bet365's 13/5 to bounce back after
Monday's home defeat to Bolton. Monday's televised clash between
Watford (11/8) and Fulham (7/4) could be brilliant for In-Play betting
and bet365 provides a first-class service for all customers wanting to
get involved.

The Bedding Zinger
I'm not the sentimental type. The only time I've ever cried as
an adult was when the wife threatened to leave me; I was absolutely
devastated when she changed her mind at the last minute.
Somewhat embarrassingly, I have to admit to being moved by
the story of 'Beenie', the little furry horse that saved Stuart Pearce
from the chop. I can only imagine how embarrassing it must have
been to have a little animal beside you on the touchline, but Beenie
coped with the situation remarkably well.
The only way that Man City will get a result at Goodison Park is
if Beenie can persuade possible relation Ruud Van Nistelrooy to
offer a helping hand; get involved with the Toffeemen at a beatific
5/6.
Paul Jewell's decision to spend the majority of his summer transfer
budget on Emile Heskey is proving to be the most outrageous rick
since 'The Young Ones' first aired. Blackburn have never lost to
Wigan in a competitive match, the Rovers are a confident call at
even money.
Robbie Savage stripped down to his pants in Blackburn's win over
Boro last week; that type of behaviour should really be confined
to the caravan. Savage's name has gone into the referee's book
in exactly half of the Premiership matches he's played this season;
the 6/4 on offer for another yellow is quite tempting.
Liverpool always struggle when they travel to Bolton, they've only
taken three points on one of their last six visits. There's more
chance of Sam Allardyce paying his license fee early than there is
of the Scousers taking liberties at the Reebok. Bolton are worth
a nibble at a perm-flattening 3/1.
It's an unwritten law in football that players always score against
their former employers. I think El Hadji Diouf netted in this
fixture last season, (I'm not 100% sure as my notes are in shorthand;
I don't even know why i got Jeremy Beadle involved.) the Senegalese
hitman is a 4/1 shot to repeat the feat.
With only one win under his belt in his managerial career, Gareth
Southgate has taken to his new role like a duck to slaughter.
Boro face a tricky looking trip to Sheffield to face the Blades;
I like the draw at 9/4.
The last time these teams met in the league, Dean Saunders
netted the winner for United. It's fair to say that in his prime,
Deano would be a greater goal threat than Ade Akinbiyi. In fact,
feel free to remove 'in his prime' from that sentence. This one
has nil-nil written all over it; back no goalscorer in the match at
a truly delightful 17/2.
One complaint often levelled against Arsenal is that they hate to
win ugly, poor old Iain Dowie has literally no choice. Ashley Cole
claimed that there was a lack of team spirit in the Arsenal dressing
room, it appears to have improved dramatically now he's gone.
The Gunners are the weekend nap at 4/7 to leave the Valley
victorious.
It's widely believed that Isaac Newton was inspired to formulate
the theory of universal gravitation as a result of an apple falling
on his head. However, I prefer to believe that he saw a mediocre
Watford team win last season's play-offs and declared, "Wat goes
up, must come down.' Fulham struggle to win away as a rule, but
that's only against Premiership teams. Back the Cottagers at 2/1.
With a three point deduction hanging over their heads after the
Ashley Cole shenanigans, the Chelsea board must have been
literally cowering throughout Panorama. (Even Seth Armstrong
didn't poach this much, allegedly.) The Champions have only won
two of their last six meetings against a David O'Leary led Villa; an
unbeaten Martin O'Neill team should definitely be backed at 11/1
to pull off a shock.
It's all going wrong at the Lane. Spurs have only scored in one
league match this season, their supporters are booing the players
off the pitch and Jermaine Jenas missed the easiest opening since
Helen Chamberlain. Portsmouth can leave North London with
a point at 12/5.
Call me a mad conspiracy theorist, but is it simply coincidence that
Wayne Rooney's dip in form has coincided with KFC introducing a
new spicy chicken range? I fear not. Looking on the bright side,
the big lad enjoys playing against Newcastle more than he enjoys
socialising with antiquated ladies. (United have completed a
double over Newcastle for the last two seasons, with Rooney
netting in all four matches.) I fancy the round one to return to
form as United romp in at 4/11.
The acc of the week:
This week's accer is so attractive; Pete Doherty is considering
binning Kate Moss as a direct result. Pete may have quipped,
"Sure, Kate's a looker; but this acc is absolutely gorgeous."
Arsenal, Everton, Blackburn, Man Utd and Fulham are the
pretty young things; the payout is a colossal 20/1.
The weekend specials:
"A little Scotch" - Paul Dickov to score with a header 7/1
"A Johnny Walker" - John Terry to be sent off 50/1
"Jim Beam please" - Beattie to score the last goal 11/2
"A large Bells" - Craig Bellamy to score with a header 6/1
"A double JD" - Jermain Defoe to score two or more goals 13/2
"A wild turkey" - Robbie Savage to be sent off 20/1
The quote of the week
"I'm enjoying being at Arsenal, it's great to be in a side which plays
such an attractive game."
Big Willy Gallas embraces subtlety.
The lay man:
There are exchange customers lining up to back Watford at 13/8.
In the immortal words of Sammy Jackson, 'It's our duty, to snatch
that booty'.

There are some great betting opportunities this weekend and
Walker's Word now brings you verdicts on three betting markets
per game! Saturday should see Arsenal continue their winning
ways at The Valley and a first win of the campaign for Sheffield
United. Reading are an excellent price on Sunday while Manchester
United should also return to winning ways at Old Trafford writes
David Walker.
Saturday 30 September
Bolton Wanderers vs Liverpool
Another lunch time kick off for Liverpool, their sixth of the
campaign. This time there are up against Bolton Wanderers
who forced Portsmouth to concede their first goal of the season
and in turn suffer their first defeat. Following a stern test
against Galatasaray in midweek, the Reds will not relish a trip
to the Reebok Stadium as they have not won there since their
3-2 victory in September 2002. Liverpool could also face a
former player in Nicolas Anelka in a match which has ended
2-2 in two of the last three played.
Walker's Word
1x2: Draw @ 9/4 (VCBet)
AH: Bolton +1/2 @ 33/40 (Bet365)
OU: Over 2.5 goals @ 6/4 (VCBet)
Charlton Athletic vs Arsenal
Charlton, with five defeats in six Premiership games, are bottom
but one in the Premiership and will not want to face an Arsenal
side who are stepping up a gear. The Gunners have won their
last four in all competitions, including a defeat of Manchester
United at Old Trafford and breaking their Emirates Stadium
duck against Sheffield United. Arsenal have won five out of seven
Premiership encounters at the Valley, including four of the last
five so confidence will be sky high. Despite this match ending
low scoring more often than high, with four out of seven Premiership
matches finishing with two goals or under, there is a fear Charlton
could collapse as things go from bad to worse under Iain Dowie.
Walker's Word
1x2: Arsenal @ 4/7 (Ladbrokes)
AH: Arsenal -3/4 @ 4/5 (Bet365)
OU: Over 2.5 goals @ 11/10 (Bet365)
Chelsea vs Aston Villa
Aston Villa have been something of a surprise package under
Martin O'Neill but their unbeaten record will face a stiff test at
Stamford Bridge. Chelsea have won eight out of 14 Premiership
encounters against the Villains at home, but more recent seasons
have seen them win their last four and seven out of eight. This
has often been a tight encounter and that is likely to continue with
both sides possessing a mean defence. One goal could settle this.
Walker's Word
1x2: Chelsea @ 1/3 (Ladbrokes)
AH: Aston Villa + 1.5 @ 4/5 (Bet365)
OU: Under 2.5 goals @ 19/20 (Bet365)
Everton vs Manchester City
Following a 1-1 draw against Newcastle last week, Everton will
see this match as an ideal opportunity to return to winning ways.
Manchester City may have beaten West Ham last weekend, but
prior to that have been awful, losing 13 in 16 before victory over
the Hammers. Everton have won three out of five since City
returned to the Premiership in 2001 and five out of nine overall
since the Premiership's inception at Goodison Park.
Walker's Word
1x2: Everton @ 4/5 (UK Betting)
AH: Everton -1/2 @ 37/40 (Bet365)
OU: Under 2.5 goals @ 8/13 (Bet365)
Sheffield United vs Middlesbrough
Two struggling teams meet and home advantage could be the
key to success. Middlesbrough have won just once in the Premiership
this season, ironically against Chelsea but have failed to win eight
away trips stretching back to last season. The Blades are not without
their troubles either, just two draws and as many goals in six
Premiership matches, despite Neil Warnock having eight strikers
on the books. It's a tough one to predict, but I'm going to side with
the home team. Just.
Walker's Word
1x2: Sheffield United @ 8/5 (Ladbrokes)
AH: Sheffield United level ball @ 19/20 (Bet365)
OU: Under 2.5 goals @ 6/10 (Bet365)
Sunday 1 October
West Ham United vs Reading
Sunday's earliest kick-off sees faltering West Ham take on improving
Reading. The introduction of Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano
appears to have done more harm than good, culminating in a defeat
against habitual losers Manchester City last weekend. Reading
performed well against Manchester United last weekend to earn a
creditable draw and could go one better at Upton Park.
Walker's Word
1x2: Reading @ 4/1 (UK Betting)
AH: Reading +1/2 @ 4/5 (Ladbrokes)
OU: Over 2.5 goals @ 23/20 (Bet365)
Blackburn Rovers vs Wigan Athletic
Improving Blackburn earned a morale boosting win at Middlesbrough
last weekend, but with just one win in three Premiership matches at
Ewood Park, are not full of confidence on home soil. Wigan find
themselves in the lower reaches of the league table but are battlers
on the road, earning draws against both Watford and Everton in their
last two away matches. This is a local derby which will give proceedings
and extra edge and a repeat of last season's 1-1 draw is the sensible call.
Walker's Word
1x2: Draw @ 12/5 (VCBet)
AH: Wigan +1/2 @ 9/10 (Ladbrokes)
OU: Under 2.5 goals @ 4/6 (UK Betting)
Manchester United vs Newcastle United
Despite a sound start to the season, Manchester United have
wobbled, losing to Arsenal and only managing a draw with Reading.
They have a great chance to make amends against Newcastle who
are traditionally iffy on the road and a bit suspect in defence.
Recently, United have been dominant in this fixture, winning six
out of the last seven meetings at Old Trafford and eight out of 13
home encounters since the Newcastle arrived in the Premiership
in 1993.
Walker's Word
1x2: Manchester United @ 1/3 (Betfred)
AH: Manchester United -1 1/4 @ 31/40 (Bet365)
OU: Over 2.5 goals @ 5/6 (UK Betting)
Tottenham Hotspur vs Portsmouth
Tottenham have played well in recent games but have had no
reward while former table toppers Portsmouth suffered their
first defeat of the season against Bolton on Monday. Former
Spurs defender Sol Campbell will have his work cut out when
he return to North London because in three Premiership meetings
at White Hart Lane, Tottenham have won twice by a 3-1 margin
and once in a 4-3 goalfest. It could prove profitable to back goals
being scored in this match and the odds represent real value given
past meetings.
Walker's Word
1x2: Tottenham Hotspur @ 10/11 (Betfred)
AH: Tottenham -1/2 @ 7/8 (Ladbrokes)
OU: Over 2.5 goals @ 5/4 (VCBet)
Monday 2 October
Watford vs Fulham
As predicted, Watford are at the wrong end of the table early on
but they have an opportunity to climb out of the bottom three
with a win against London rivals Fulham. Chris Coleman's side
were dire on the road last season and Hornet's manager Aidy
Boothroyd will hope that form will show itself at Vicarage Road.
Walker's Word
1x2: Watford @ 6/4 (Coral)
AH: Watford level ball @ 4/5 (Bet365)
OU: Over 2.5 goals @ 6/5 (UK Betting)

A Bung, Bung, Bungalow in Baghdad
I'm not the type of man who makes disparaging comments about
a person's individual beliefs, but anyone who visits a psychic
should be institutionalised. The wife is a prime example, when
I questioned why she regularly throws her money away on such
an obvious scam, she screamed, "It's not a con, Zelda doesn't
even charge, she just asks for a voluntary £10 contribution."
If she was any slower she'd stop.
I'm a huge cynic of all things 'supernatural', although I have to
admit to being slightly nervous when I received a videotape that
was accompanied with a warning: 'Watch this, and within 7 days
you will die'. It turned out it was an entire episode of Soccer AM,
and boredom related deaths were a genuine possibility.
There are a few people like the wife who believe that Arsenal's
new home is cursed. Even if the Emirates stadium was built on
an Indian burial ground, with a tribe of Indians actually visiting
at the time, there's only one possible result when Sheff U roll into
town. Back the Gunners at a spooky 1/5.
If anyone should be charging for psychic visions, it's Roy 'I see
dead people' Keane. The former United hard-man announced
before the Arsenal match that Rooney had done nothing in the
game; Wayne's performance placed an exclamation mark at the
end of his sentence. The tubster will be looking to regain his
form when United travel to the Madejski stadium to face Reading;
Man U will win at a knee-shattering 8/15.
Steve Coppell famously completed an economics degree while
playing for United; a hugely impressive feat, most modern day
footballers can't count to 21 without thinking of Maria Sharapova.
(I get to 20 1/2.) Even the numerically gifted Reading manager
could have a problem keeping score, United are a worth a nibble
at 5/1 to score four or more goals.
Jose Mourinho's decision to play Ballack, Lampard, Essien and
Makelele in the Chelsea midfield has even upset the wife, I
overheard her on the phone to her mother complaining about a
serious lack of width. Ballack's suspension for marching over
Sissoko may be a blessing in disguise for Chelsea, I fancy the
Champions at 4/9 to leave Fulham with three points.
After claiming the press were wrong to criticise Lampard, Mourinho
then stripped him of his penalty taking duties. The last time a
Lamp was rubbed up the wrong way in a similar fashion was when
I had a small part in Aladdin. We'd both had a few. With Ballack
out of the frame, Lampard is a 6/1 shot to score from the penalty
spot.
You can't fancy Tottenham to leave Liverpool with anything but
a beating. Spurs have only scored in one league match this season,
yet Popeye look-alike Martin Jol refuses to start goal-getter
extraordinaire Jermain Defoe. Tottenham haven't won a Premiership
match at Anfield since '93, a bet on Spurs to reverse that trend would
be the costliest mistake since Chris Tarrant offered a school teacher
a 4th lifeline. If Tottenham win this, i'll give up betting and move to
Iraq; the Pool are the weekend nap at 4/6.
It's a bit of a lottery for first goal scorer bettors, but the answer
my friend, is blowing in the wind: Kuyt is a tasty 5/1 shot.
Blackburn played Boro three times last season, and won them all.
(Two of those were at the Riverside.) Be warned though, much
like with women, previous results should not be used as a reliable
indicator for future prospects. I'm happy to make an exception
with Blackburn at a huge 5/2.
McCarthy looks the call in the first goalscorer market. At the age
of 29, you could say that Benny's at a crossroads in his career;
you'll get a decent run for your money at 8/1.
Glenn Roeder had to apologise to West Ham fans this week, and
surprisingly, it wasn't for relegating their team of superstars.
Everton have conceded 18 goals on their last 6 visits to St James'
Park; another Newcastle win appeals at 5/4.
I feel a little bit sorry for Harry Redknapp, he's been the subject
of more enquiries than the 118-118 guys, but it hasn't affected
Pompey's start to the season. Bolton have left Fratton Park with
a point on their last two visits, another draw should be backed at 9/4.
It's confession time; I've backed the USA to regain the Ryder Cup.
I'm not a great fan of the Yanks as a rule; their national sport is
rounders, they call British Bulldogs 'football', and most annoyingly
of all, their sportsmen have a tendency to thank Jesus 37 times
whenever they put a ball in a hole or run 100 yards without falling
over.
For all their faults, it's an undisputable fact that American golfers
are superior to European golfers. Europe are favourites for the
Ryder Cup thanks to recent history; but if school has taught us
anything, it's that history is unimportant. The USA are still
available at 11/8; that's the actual definition of value.
The acc of the week:
The accer this week is so indisputable; Ian Paisley, Gerry Adams,
George Galloway and George Bush are considering uniting to voice
their support. Liverpool, Aston Villa, Chelsea, Blackburn and
Man Utd are the chosen five, the payout is an eye-catching 20/1.
The quote of the week
"To be 13 points behind United after 4 games would have been a disaster."
Lee Dixon shows off on MOTD2.
The lay man:
If you can't score, you can't win. The exchanges were invented
so we could lay Tottenham at 5/1.

This could be the weekend Arsenal break their Emirates Stadium duck while
it’s also a good opportunity for both Liverpool and Manchester United to get
back to winning ways. Expect Manchester City's dismal run of form to continue
and there could also be a shock on at Crave Cottage writes David Walker. Saturday 23 September Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur
Liverpool have a great opportunity to follow up on the midweek win against
Newcastle United at lunch time on Saturday. Opponents Tottenham Hotspur
have had a poor start to the season, winning just once in their five Premiership
matches so far and Liverpool’s record in this fixture speaks for itself. The last
time Tottenham won at Anfield in the league was during the 1993/94 season
and since then it has been eight wins and four draws for the Reds, including
eight wins in the last 10 meetings.
Walker's Word: Tottenham's misery to continue at 8/11 (UK Betting) Arsenal vs Sheffield United
Arsenal won their first match of the season last weekend against Manchester
United and are set to continue in that vain against rock-bottom Sheffield United.
The Gunners will not get a better opportunity to win their first match at the new
Emirates Stadium against a goal-shy Blades side who have scored just two
goals in five matches so far this season.
Walker's Word: Arsenal to break their Emirates duck @ 1/5 (Coral) Aston Villa vs Charlton Athletic
Unbeaten Aston Villa tackle a struggling Charlton side languishing in the bottom
three. This fixture is usually a close affair but the Villains have enjoyed the best
of the results, winning five out of the last six meetings, the other being a goalless
draw. Under Martin O'Neill, Villa have won both games at Villa Park so far this
season and there is real confidence at the club. Juan Pablo Angel also scored
two morale boosting goals in the midweek Carling Cup victory at Scunthorpe
United.
Walker's Word: Villa's 100% home record to continue @ 4/5 (Bet365) Fulham vs Chelsea
Chelsea are the overwhelming favourites for this match, but you should take into
account Fulham's record against the Blues in recent years before ploughing your
money in favour of Jose Mourinho’s side. Last season Fulham won this match 1-0
and indeed Chelsea have only won two of their last five encounters at Craven
Cottage. After a solid win over Liverpool last weekend, a slip up against Chris
Coleman's side could happen.
Walker's Word: Fulham to nick a point @ 10/3 (Paddy Power) Manchester City vs West Ham United
Both teams have struggled in recent weeks but City more than most. The midweek
Carling Cup exit to Chesterfield saw Stuart Pearce's side lose their thirteenth match
in 16 played – relegation form by anybody's standards. City have the better record
in this fixture, winning four out of six in the Premiership but that just makes the
odds on an away win even more appealing.
Walker's Word: A Hammers win @ 9/4 (UK Betting) Middlesbrough vs Blackburn Rovers
Middlesbrough suffered the humiliation of being dumped out of the Carling Cup
at the Riverside Stadium by League Two outfit Notts County in the week. That
result saw four matches without a win for Gareth Southgate's side following their
magnificent victory over Chelsea in August. They may fall deeper into trouble
against an improving Blackburn side which has won on three of their last five
visits to the North East.
Walker's Word: An away win at good odds @ 13/5 (Totalbet) Wigan Athletic vs Watford
Wigan have had a mixed start to this season with their only win so far a 1-0
victory over Reading. Win number two should come against another promoted
side in Watford who are struggling for goals and have managed just two draws
since making the step up to the top flight.
Walker's Word: A win for Wigan @ 5/6 (Totalbet) Reading vs Manchester United
The evening offering pits newcomers Reading against former champions
Manchester United. Alex Ferguson's side were poor against Arsenal last
weekend but should have too much for Reading, especially if Wayne Rooney
decides he wants to play.
Walker's Word: United to get back on track @ 4/7 (UK Betting) Sunday 24 September Newcastle United vs Everton
Everton are flying high in fourth place at the moment and are capable of staging
a smash and grab raid in the North East. The loss of goalkeeper Shay Given is
a major blow, especially as stand-in Steve Harper was beaten from 60 yards by
Xabi Alonso in midweek. Everton have not won at St James' Park for six seasons
bar a League Cup victory on penalties in 2002 but may be able to take all three
points on Sunday afternoon.
Walker's Word: Everton to shock @ 21/10 (Totalbet) Monday 25 September Portsmouth vs Bolton Wanderers
Typical Monday Night Football fare if ever there was. Portsmouth sit proudly at
the top of the Premiership but could run out of steam against a stubborn Bolton
outfit which could be galvanised further by the bad publicity surrounding manager
Sam Allardyce this week. The last two meetings at Fratton Park have ended as
1-1 draws and more of the same is expected here.
Walker's Word: A third low scoring draw in a row @ 9/4 (Paddy Power)

| PREMIER LEAGUE Weekend PREVIEW by Gerry McDonnell (Thursday, September 14, 2006) |

It ain't over 'til the fat laddie swings
To be successful in life, you have to be a positive thinker. Every
night I say to myself, "You are Gerry McDonnell, and you can
achieve anything." It's equally important to remain level-headed
though, so I always add: "Yes, but you're still a tool."
Wayne Rooney also has confidence in abundance, but he's
struggling to keep his feet on the ground. Luckily, he can't see
the problem. The dark side of the Roon has led to simultaneous
banning orders from domestic and international football, his
return to Premiership action coincides with the visit of old foes
Arsenal, talk about a recipe for disaster. A Rooney yellow at 7/4
is a tasty investment, a Rooney red should be eaten up at 12/1.
It had been reported that Rooney had kept himself in shape
during his enforced sabbatical, unfortunately, that shape was
a circle. Wayne's lack of sharpness on Wednesday night was
evident; it looks like the only real exercise he'd undertaken
during his layoff was when he floored Blackburn's Michael Gray
for suggesting a threesome with Coleen, an offer which presumably
enraged him as no money was set to change hands. The Gunners
are a great bet at 9/4 to leave Old Trafford with a point.
I'm a huge fan of Cesc Fabregas. The young lad is still a teenager,
yet he's shone in a World Cup, dazzled in a Champions League
final, and perhaps most impressively of all, he's thrown pizza
over Sir Alex Ferguson. It would be absolutely Fabregas if
Cesc opens the scoring at 20/1.
Chelsea and Liverpool have gone to war more often than George
Bush in recent years. The stats are quite deceiving though, the
wife is backing Liverpool because Chelsea have only won two of
their last eight meets, but on the other hand, Jose has a 100%
record in the Premiership against his arch nemesis. For me, the
other hand is always preferable to the wife; i'm tipping the
Champions at 5/6.
There's probably more chance of Stevie Gerrard and Robbie
Fowler singing 'We are family' with the Neville brothers than
there is of Jose shaking hands with Rafa once the match is over.
The hostility between the managers could well be matched on
the field of play, a red card appeals at 11/4.
Jose has criticised the press for giving Lampard a raw deal after
a series of poor performances. One theory raised is that he may
have something on his mind; my guess would be 'dinner'. The
Lamp is as short as 11/2 to net the opener, the way he's playing,
I'd rather be a layer than a player.
You have to fancy Portsmouth to take three points at Charlton.
Pompey are yet to concede a goal this season while Charlton's
defences have been penetrated every 45 minutes, an average
that would make the wife's eyes water. (She's a big Charlton fan.)
Pompey can keep up their impressive start to the season; get
stuck in at 2/1.
The Boro have made an excellent loan signing in Jonathan
Woodgate, if anyone knows about the qualities needed to be a
top notch centre-back it's Gareth Southgate, he played with
Ugo Ehiogu for several years. Bolton v Middlesbrough bears all
the hallmarks of a tight match; three of the last four meetings
have been drawn, another deadlocked match appeals at 9/4.
Bobby Zamora could teach Michael Gray a thing or two when
it comes to scoring; the underrated hitman has found the net
in every game. It could go either way when the Hammers
host Newcastle, it could either be a tight home win or West Ham
could absolutely murder them. Take 11/10 about a stroll in the
park for the Hammers.
Everton are the weekend nap at home to Wigan. Australian
Tim Cahill is in criminally good form, AJ is falling over himself
to get on the scoresheet and Phil Neville excels in doing the
ugly stuff. The 8/11 is tastier than a banana wielding Maria
Sharapova.
Aston Villa are the next best bet on the coupon at 13/8 to see
off a mediocre Watford team at the Vicarage. It's often said
that nobody goes down in September, and after two weeks of
solid research, I can confirm that this is the case. Watford may
prove to be the exception.
A new lightweight Mido can be the Spur for Tottenham when
they host Fulham at the Lane. The Egyptian announced that
he managed to lose 22 pounds of ugly fat; Coleen McLoughlin
could do with his phone number. The team playing at home
has won this fixture on the last five occasions; back Tottenham
at 4/6 to make that six out of six.
When Blackburn host Man City, a black-eyed Michael Gray
and a purple-forearmed Ben Thatcher will be watching on as
Barton and Mills scrap it out with Savage and Neill. I fancy
Blackburn to win the match at 11/10, but I won't be watching
as I disagree with gratuitous violence. Call me an out of touch
Guardian-reading pacifist, but I'd do anything for a little piece.
The acc of the week:
The accer this week is so undeniable, that even an Ashley Cole
autobiography would struggle to cast doubt upon its authenticity.
Everton, Aston Villa, Chelsea, Blackburn and West Ham are the
picks, the payout is a weekend changing 33/1.
The weekend specials celebrate Wayne Rooney's return, via the
medium of song.
"Born tubby wild" - Wayne Rooney to be sent off 16/1
"Jumper round" - Wayne Rooney to score with a header 5/1
"Pork like an Egyptian" - Wayne Rooney and Mido both to score 5/1
"I gut two babe" - Wayne Rooney to score two or more goals 5/1
"Have I told you lately, 'fat' I love you" - Wayne Rooney to score a hat-trick 25/1
"I predict a diet" - Wayne Rooney not to score 8/15
The quote of the week
"I'll educate him."
Stuart Pearce, when asked how he'll handle 'the Micah Richards
situation'; and I thought school was tough...
The lay man:
Watford must be layed at 2/1 on the exchanges. They're just not very good.

Sore Berries and Cream
Having been involved in the sports betting game since I was
knee high to Paul Dickov, I've pretty much seen it all; I'm
practically unshockable. Admittedly, when Frank Lampard
was announced 'the 2nd best player in the world', I was slightly
taken aback; when a 17 year old Maria Sharapova won
Wimbledon, I raised more than an eyebrow, but when news
broke that West Ham had signed Tevez and Mascherano,
i actually collapsed like Pedro Mendes.
This is the most jaw-dropping transfer since Howard Wilkinson
began the Manchester United era of dominance by selling Cantona
for £1m. But while intellectuals pontificate about the rights
and wrongs of the deal, the truly clever are profiting from the
situation by backing West Ham at 12/1 in the 'betting without
the big 4' market; that was a decent shout before two of the
world's best players became bubble-blowers.
The Hammers can consider themselves lucky; the last time I
managed to get my hands on a quality pair, the filth arrested
me. On a related note, my cousin once wanted to be a police
officer; you can imagine my sense of pride when he decided
to clean car windows at traffic lights instead.
I was disappointed to hear that the old Bill were sniffing around
the Ben Thatcher incident, there's a time and a place for the
plod, it's normally three and a half hours after you've called
them. Man City will be without Thatcher when they travel
to Reading, it would be criminal to miss the Royals at an
elbow-jerking 7/5.
Everton's preparations for the Merseyside derby have been
rocked by Roongate. David Moyes was so incensed by Wayne's
autobiography serialisation that he's started legal proceedings.
I guess Rooney will soon be sporting a new t-shirt; 'Once a
blue, always a blue - unless I feel the need to justify leaving
for a bigger club by completely destabilising them'. Liverpool
should be backed at 11/10 to leave Goodison Park with the
Scouse bragging-rights.
Steven Gerrard came out with the most entertaining one-liner
since Pete Doherty this week. He joked, "Peter Crouch is a
great finisher; i hope he beats Bobby Charlton's record."
Well, i hope to one day sleep with Maria Sharapova, but it
ain't gonna happen ... again. To be fair to Gerrard, the big man
is on fire; even I'm considering backing him at 13/2 to net the
opener.
The revelation that Gallas threatened to score an own goal if
Chelsea picked him against his will has even got the wife upset.
I overheard her in a conversation with her mother: "That's one
small Willy" she complained, and she's right. The signing of
Gallas and Baptista finally adds much needed steel to the
Gunners armoury, Arsenal are available at 4/11 to see off
Middlesbrough, please meet the weekend nap.
Thierry Henry loves facing the Boro, of the incredible 16 goals
that Middlesbrough have conceded in their last three visits to
Arsenal in the Premiership, Terrence has bagged 6 of them.
They say form is temporary, but class is permanent, (If that's
true, where's Pele now?) Henry is 14/1 to net a hat-trick.
Man U have started the season superbly, but their decision
not to replace Van the man in the transfer window could
leave Fergie red-faced. (Looking on the bright side, his nose
will fit right in.) While Man U are lightweight up front, Spurs
have more quality than Ben Thatcher could shake an elbow at.
Defoe, Keane, Berbatov and Mido are all top-drawer operators,
my value sensor has sniffed out the draw at 11/4.
Neil Warnock broke the bank on deadline day, bringing in Kazim-
Richards for a fee believed to be in the region of £150,000, that's
a pretty poor region. Blackburn have visited Bramall Lane twice
in the Premiership, they left with all three points on both occasions.
Chance may have no memory, but Sheffield United have no
players; the Rovers are the call at 7/4.
Paul Jewell will be delighted that Emile Heskey has opened his
account, although, if he really thought about it, it's probably a
bad thing that 33% of his total goals for the season are in the
bag already. Wigan travel to a revitalised Pompey, I can't see
any other result than a home win, a juicy 5/6 is on offer.
While Chelsea's attack on Gallas did Willy little favours, it hardly
promoted the Champions in a positive light. My favourite line
from the press release was the accusation that he was 'hawking
himself to the highest bidder', there's a kettle looking to tool a
pot somewhere. Charlton will be demolished at the Bridge, take
advantage at 1/5.
The acc of the week:
The accer this week is so assured; it would take a team of women
working around the clock to even begin to demoralise it. Liverpool,
Arsenal, Bolton, Portsmouth and Blackburn are the selections, the
payout is a shade under 20/1.
The weekend specials:
"Nic is in a twist" - Anelka to be sent off 25/1
"Mido's touch" - Mido to score at any time 3/1
"Hey Mascherano" - Javier Mascherano to be booked 7/4
"Auf Wiedersehen, Pet" - Stilian Petrov to be sent off 40/1
"All mouth and no Scousers" - A player to be sent off in the Merseyside derby 2/1
The quote of the week
"At this stage, no proceedings have been issued against Wayne
Rooney, for various reasons. The book has got to be fully read
and David Moyes has to consider whether that is something he
wants to do."
That's too much to ask of any one man.
The lay man:
People are lining up to back Man U at 8/15 on the exchanges.
Spurs are unbeaten in their last two trips to Old Trafford, let's
accommodate them.

| EURO QUALIFIERS Weekend PREVIEW by Gerry McDonnell (Friday, September 01, 2006) |
|
The bitterest pillow
I am not a happy man. As a rule, the wife and I are normally
easy going, or to be more truthful, she's easy and I'm going.
But for some strange reason, after just two weeks of quality
football, the Premiership has been sidelined to make way for
the International, like Cinderella being dumped in favour of
her ugly sister. (The other one married me.) I haven't been
this upset since the wife first told me she was pregnant, (It
was my own fault, i was hoping that her looks would provide
adequate contraception; damn those pillow cases.) luckily, i
have now calmed down enough to point the way to a few
cracking weekend punts.
After an unproductive World Cup, it's time to embrace a brand
new dawn for the English game. I'd like to offer my best wishes
to the man who was without a shadow of a doubt, the most
outstanding candidate to replace Sven Goran Eriksson; good
luck at the Villa, Martin O'Neill. Incredible as it may seem,
O'Neill was overlooked as the FA first courted 'Big Phil' Scolari,
before settling for 'first choice' Steve 'I once bought Michael
Ricketts' McClaren.
Let's be honest, Macca is no Brian Clough, his record at
Middlesbrough was a joke. The Boro board backed him to the
hilt financially, yet McClaren could only finish in the top half of
the Premiership once. Still, there's no point in crying over spilt
milk (only a significant loss of lager justifies tears), even Macca
can lead England to a comfortable victory over Andorra. The
English are unbackable at 1/50, playing on a 4-0 scoreline at
13/2 can prove a profitable alternative.
McClaren's first duty as England manager was to shut the door
on David Beckham, the best crosser of a ball in world football.
The situation would be comical if it wasn't so serious. There's no
Becks, there's no Rooney, the first goal scorer betting centres
around Crouch and Frank 'one goal every thirty shots' Lampard.
God help us all. Lamps is the lesser of two evils at 5/1.
I'm a big fan of John Terry; I can honestly say that I would never,
under any circumstances, throw him out of a nightclub. The new
England captain is available at 9/2 to score with a header; that's
worth a second look.
Scotland host the Faroe Isles in their opening qualifier and
I'm preparing for a bad day. It's absolute carnage in my house
when the Jocks play, the wife gets all patriotic; out comes the
haggis, the bagpipes and the syringe. Scotland were held to a
2-2 draw by the Faroe Isles four years ago, I think there's a
great chance of a shock here; I think Scotland can nick it at 1/8.
Krissy Boyd scores plenty of goals at a domestic level, but I'd
probably score 30 a season in the SPL. I'm tipping Boyd to
net the opener for our skirt-wearing neighbours at 3/1 thanks
to a complex new system I've been developing, if a team has
only one decent player, pick him.
Tomas Rosicky could do with an easy match to guarantee a
win after a depressing start to the season with Arsenal. Luckily
for Tommy, the Czech's are hosting Wales. There's been a few
tears shed in Robbie Savage's caravan since John Toshack was
appointed the Welsh manager, there will be a few more when
the Czech's take an easy three points at 2/5.
I'm a big fan of Bjork, the Icelandic nutcase once beat up a
reporter for saying, "Welcome to Bangkok," tough but fair.
Iceland have been priced up at 9/4 for their trip to Northern
Ireland, be like Bjork and get stuck in. There's only one call
for first goalscorer betting, that's Gudjohnsen, Eidur put a
bet on it at 6/1.
The Republic of Ireland are in the same group as Germany
and the Czech Republic, but have kindly promised to fulfil
their fixtures anyway. The Irish travel to Stuttgart to begin
their campaign, the Germans will walk it at 4/9.
Stan Staunton was held at gunpoint recently, police are looking
for a complete madman, Niall Quinn hasn't been ruled out.
Another lanky forward looks the call to open the scoring, take a
Klose look at Miroslav at 4/1.
Ruud Van Nistelrooy has been left out of the Dutch squad for
the trip to Luxembourg. The horse-faced goal machine was
reportedly devastated by Van Basten's decision, but he's since
been stabilised. Only the rich can play on the Dutch at 1/50,
a correct score perm of 3-0 / 4-0 will have to suffice for the
rest of us at 12/5.
There's a real treat in store for footy fans on Sunday, when
Brazil lock horns with Argentina at the Emirates. From the
look of the squads, both managers are taking this friendly
seriously; Tevez, Messi, and Riquelme will face off against
Ronaldinho, Robinho and Kaka. Ronaldo 'too fat to have two
names' hasn't made the squad which gives the Brazilians a
glimmer of hope, but I'll be on the Argies at 7/4.
The acc of the week:
The accer this week is so nailed on, a team of demolition experts
would struggle to loosen it. Iceland, Scotland, France, Czech
Republic, Germany and Italy are the teams, the payout is a
pleasing 10/1.
The quote of the week:
"When you are good enough to go to Arsenal, you are good
enough to play in the England team; because there are many
players who play for England who would not play at Arsenal."
Arsene Wenger is such a diplomat, he refused to name Peter Crouch.
The lay man:
England are a fantastic lay at 6/1 to win Euro 2008, but if you
want your money tied up for years you should consider marriage.
On the weekend action, Northern Ireland should definitely be
layed on the exchanges at 13/10.
