The SZ Saturday Gamble Nominations 20/02/10 Week 3

[TrueBlue]

The Rules are as follows.....

There will be 2 threads each for each Saturday the 1st being this one where I will need 15 teams nominated from the SZ users who think will win there match this Saturday.

Once the 15 have been nominated a Poll will be raised for SZ users to decide from the 15 nominated whether they themselves agree with the nomination thus some predictions will have stronger backing then others allowing gamblers to bet with a touch more camaraderie, this poll I will aim to have up by Wednesday every week leaving 3 full days for users to vote.

Each week I will do a review (sometimes on a Sunday of I am away watching SUFC) that will show how good we were that week for instance last week (week 2) this was the outcome....

Huddersfield - DRAW
Coventry - WIN
Millwall - WIN
Southend - DRAW
Middlesbrough - WIN
Shrewsbury - WIN
Brentford - DRAW
Manchester City - DRAW
Bournemouth - LOSE
Notts Forest - LOSE
Portsmouth - WIN
Leeds - DRAW
West Brom - DRAW
Norwich - WIN
Aston Villa -DRAW

I also realise that there if value in selecting Draws but at the present time and to contain order I am just looking for WIN SELECTIONS ONLY

One last thing I think its fair to say if I deem a nomination to be a heavy banker i.e last week Manchester United win, I will not count it as we are looking to find value here for bets and bankers like that add little value for risk.

Last week we got 6 correct out of 15 but we did get much closer games but this week I am sure we can do better....

p.s SATURDAY GAMES ONLY!

Lets start.....

Leeds are 2/5 with my lot. They probably will win, but I don't think that's particularly good value.

By the way, it's worth noting that for online and telebetting, the main UK firms cut all their football prices on Fridays. When they open the betting they bet to 112%, but by the time the weekend comes around, they are betting to 106%.

Prices stay the same in shops as coupons have already been printed with the 112% prices.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Villa to beat Burnley... (not sure of the price)

Edit - Scrub that, it's being played on Sunday.
