******************************************************************************** 1. Terry Says Welcome back to the Weekend Wager column, which is my regular take on the upcoming betting calendar with a few handy guest articles and bets thrown in for good measure. I should start off by saying thanks for all the positive feedback regarding last weeks debut posting and it was good to get off to a flyer with a few of the sample bets coming in for us. Last week's sport was dominated by the 20/20 for 20 match last Saturday night. It was a bizarre spectacle that had the feel of a village cricket match with just one major difference... The $20 million riding on it. Unfortunately England did indeed play like village cricketers with $20 million hanging over their heads and were comprehensively outplayed. At least I did manage to spot some value with Samit Patel top scoring at 16/1 as mentioned last week. He may have only made 22 but it was easily the best score in what was a woeful performance from KP’s boys. Skeeve was very unlucky as his bet succumbed to a 93rd minute last-gasp goal but at least Winabobatoo had better luck, picking out an easy winner from the weekends football card with Sheffield United seeing off Plymouth 2-0 at an advised 5/6. It was equally a very good weekend for anyone following many of the football advisory services recommended by us here at the Secret Betting Club. My own profit from the beautiful game last week numbered just shy of four figures so smiles all round at the Allen household and no doubt the same for a number of our members too. For every goldmine tipster service though, you equally get just as many ‘dodgy’ products and promotions doing the rounds designed only to part you and your cash. One we continue to hear from is the ubiquitous Auto Lays service from a certain Mr. Jason Henderson who continues to promote his website heavily. His is a loss recovery stop-at-a-winner system that has been doomed to failure since it began and indeed has gone bust a number of times lately. Still we continue to receive his promotions on how good it is, which is in direct contrast to everyone else’s opinion. There is a full Auto-Lays review up at Money Maker Review if you’re interested in more. Until next Friday… Terry Allen
2. The Next Week In Betting No $20 million Cricket games to entertain us this week but still plenty to get our teeth stuck into from a betting front. Already the media have been building up the big game between Arsenal and Man Utd on Saturday which has a lunchtime kickoff at 12.45. Arsene Wenger has been living up to his Arsene Whinger nickname this week, bemoaning the physical presence of the Stoke team last Saturday. Stoke to be fair have been playing in such a manner for a while now so surely their no holds barred approach should have come as no surprise to the Gunners boss. For all their silky skills, the Arsenal simply done like it up ‘em and you can be sure Fergie will have his team wound up to get in their face. Howard Webb is the man in charge and you can get 11/5 with Paddy Power (3.85 on Betfair) on their being a red card. For Boxing fans there is also the mouth watering fight between Joe Calzaghe and Roy Jones Jr at Madison Square Gardens in New York. It is Joe’s last fight (well supposedly, we all know boxers are very liable to have their heads turned on this) and he is 4/11 odds on best price with Bet365 and Ladbrokes.
******************************************************************************** Featuring up to date and full reviews of some of the most talked about services (good and bad) such as Auto Lays, Win On Sports, Steve Lewis Hamilton & Isiris Racing amongst many others. 3. Tipping Legends Column This weeks topic which we will expand on over the weekend on our website, is regarding which trainers are best to follow with fresh horses (i.e. those coming off a break) The Tipping Legends will also be exploring a lot more of these issues in-depth at their own website, starting this Monday. Be sure to check back then for more. Visit The Tipping Legends Website
4. Ask The Legends Your Question This weeks question is… I often hear about a horse being a certain number of lbs 'out of the handicap'. What does this mean?
5. The Winabobatoo Weekender Last week I pointed you in the direction of Sheff Utd to beat Plymouth at 5/6 (1.83) and they duly obliged. My website members were given 5 winners from 6 selections. This week sees the first round of the FA Cup. Cup matches are extremely unpredictable and are best avoided. Lesser teams often raise their game and predictions become very difficult. The short-priced games that look like certainties hold no value as there will be enough upsets to spoil the party! The key to profitable betting is to bet when the odds are longer than the risk involved. Take Wigan to beat Stoke this weekend in the Premiership. Have a bet on Wigan to beat Stoke at 5/6 (1.83) available with Totesport and a number of other bookmakers as well. Mike Lindley (www.winabobatoo.co.uk) Interested in Winabobatoo? Well in an exclusive offer, you can save £25 on the cost of Winabobatoo membership if you are a Secret Betting Club subscriber. Visit The Winabobatoo Website
Hi everybody, Unfortunately, last weekend's free pick kicked five units out of our pockets, but the way it happened was absolutely heartbreaking – and that's been the story of my 08/09 season so far. Hayes weren't a better team (you can actually see the match highlights here: http://fcvideo.co.uk/hyu.htm). In fact the 1st half was all Havant and they actually took the lead with ten minutes to go, but Hayes first equalised (Hendry's goal was a beauty) and then obviously scored a winner in the 93rd minute. You may well ask how 5 units lost is still a ‘long-term’ winning bet? Well, it's obvious that we were on the right side here – remember, odds on an away win were 3.20 (3.50 the day before, when I was sending the pick to my subscribers) and we even improvised a fine 'double chance' bet that would bring us +2 units profit in case of a draw (and +4.6 units in case of an away win, a bit more the day before). 8/11/2008 BLUE SQUARE SOUTH THURROCK – Basingstoke 1 (1.80 @Sky Bet) 4 units Thurrock once again proved that they aren't a Cup team (lost 1:4 at BS Premier high-flyers Kettering in the Setanta Shield this Tuesday), but they're doing fine in BS South lately, they have two wins (at Braintree and Fisher) and a draw with Bognor in the last three. McKenzie scored three goals in the last two matches, new signings Hart and Howard are linking up well in midfield and their defence (with Swaine and Pain in the centre) is actually pretty good – of course it's not good enough for full-strength BS Premier leaders, but it's more than good enough for poor Basingstoke who will, to make things even worse for them (and better for us), be without a couple key players – goalkeeper Kitteridge, defender Bristow (both suspended), winger Tucknott (injured) and most probably midfielder Williamson. Basingstoke did take four points out of their last two matches (1:4 FA Cup defeat to Bury happened in between), but they only managed to beat free-falling Bromley and share points with struggling Newport in a goalless draw – Newport had two players sent off (the first sending off happened before half-time), but they were a better team nevertheless (I watched the match highlights and counted – Basingstoke had two shots on goal – one was a header than went over the bar and the second was a harmless long-range effort). Before these two matches, Basingstoke had four defeats in a row (including defeats to Bishop's Stortford and Fisher) and that 2:0 win at Bromley is in fact their only league win this season. Thurrock are much bigger favorites here than the odds suggest, no doubt about that. (1.80 also at Stan James, Blue Square, Coral &, Sportingbet...) Read our review of Skeeve's service
