£1 Weekend Football Accumulator [#2, 15th-17th September]

forzaborza [Edit] [Delete] 69 replies 11:46, 10 September '12

As you know, i'm not really into my mercenary football nowadays, but i still love relieving the bookies of a few beer tokens. Why not also be a life winner?

RULES:
- place a £1 accumulator bet on the outcomes of all the weekend's Premier League games.
- upload your bet slip
- try not to kill yourself when your first nine come in and an absolute banker costs you £2,000 in the Monday night game.

This weekend there's a full card of ten games. Beware the curse of the early kick-off (West Ham again).

  - Used to do this a lot
    
    Closest I ever got was 9/10. Got let down by Man U losing at home to Man City (before City got money). Never forgiven either of them for that. Cant remember how much I stood to win, but I know I'd already spent some of it. Might go back through my betting account to find out. Anyway, will have a go at this at some point pre weekend.

    ARSENAL v SOUTHAMPTON - draw or away win
    FULHAM v WEST BROM - away win
    UNITED v WIGAN - draw or away win
    QPR v CHELSEA - home win or draw
    SUNDERLAND v LIVERPOOL - away win
    READING v SPURS - home win

      - think i probably fancy a Liverpool win now.
        
        not sure there's any real reason why yesterday's events should have any impact on how they play, but i think it's one weekend where nobody, irrespective of alleigance, would begrudge them a victory.

        A combination of

        - Liverpool should probably win a match at some point
        - Always some sort of upset, why not a draw at Stoke?

        in hindsight, you probably didn't need to put that second bet on.
        
        but now that you have i'll have to insist on a slice if it comes in.
        
        either way, you've fucked with the symmetry of my spreadsheet and given that, i'm going to have to ask you to leave the boards.

    18 taking part this week - http://tinyurl.com/DiSAccys
    
    I've just stuck this accy on, as well, basically after totting up everyone's predictions, what we deemed the least likely outcomes. It'll never come in, but it'll be interesting to see how many are right compared to our first picks...
    
    It's basically West Ham, Villa, West Brom, QPR, Stoke, Liverpool, Reading and Newcastle to win, Wigan and Southampton to draw or better - 191,908/1!

    Quite happy with my predicting performance this week. Was always going to go for Chelsea, so the big money was never there. On a 6 at the moment, and I'm reasonably confident about Everton making it 7 this evening.
