This was discussed pre-season, but never happened in practice, but I’ve noticed the weekend thread becoming harder to read over the last few weeks so we’ll see how this goes.
There are two weekend threads for this coming week.
This thread is for posting bets that have been placed on the weekend’s action. I don’t want to put anyone off using the forum, every post and bit of input is welcome, but lists of accumulators without any rationale behind them doesn’t add any value to the discussion thread.
I will be actively managing these topics and moving posts where necessary.

Good shout. Dont see any point in people posting lists of teams without any discussion into why they've chosen said team(s). The whole point of a betting forum is, surely, to discuss teams form, injuries, suspensions etc etc and give others a tip or two.

4/5 St J at ladbrokes...

So far i like
Ayr 1/1
Albion Rovers 4/6
Forfar 4/5
St Johnstone 4/5

5 quid on that would return 55ish

Just had a quick look but already fancy a large double on Forfar 4/5 and Albion 4/6 odds from ladbrokes- obv better to be had. I dont think Berwick have lost to Forfar in Years? but cant see anything other than a Forfar win.

Last weekend was a great coupon, best in ages.

However my initial impressions aren't positive this week - Man City 6/4 at Hull on Sunday does stand out though.

some of these bets this week look to good to be true. Ayr, Wolves and Tottenham in particular.

Treble on Forfar, Darlington and Wolves. £10 = aprox £54

Trixie on Leicester, Ayr and Alloa. £5 = aprox £33

Trixie on Spurs, Hull and Peterhead. £5 = aprox £75

£1 on all 9 too, for a welcome reward of £1470. My prediction is 8 of them will win and i'll be waiting on Hull on Sunday, who'll be 1-0 up after 95mins and that cock Robinho will score.

£5 free bet on Hull 2-2 Man City at 12/1.

£4 canadian, total stake £104. Potential returns £790.44.

Placed at betfair multiples, pays 99% of the best priced bookmaker but I didn't want to have another £104 from my current account tied up in yet another bookies so placed it from my existing betfair balance.

Sorry for being pedantic, but are St Johnstone not away to Clyde?

Good point, edited my post and yours.

£20 on -

Spurs
Birmingham
Wolves
St Johnstone
Ayr

Wolves' form at St Mary's isn't great, I would steer clear!

As well as my previous

Aberdeen and Swindon both to win

£5 returns £52.50 inc stake.

Not quite sure what I'm going for but this is in the pipeline:

St. Johnstone
Dundee
Ayr
Albion
Montrose

£5 returns £114.00

Tottenham
Bristol City
Derby
Leicester
Bury

£5 returns £141.75

Line 1:
Leicester
Dundee Utd
St Johnstone
Alloa
Forfar

Line 2:
Cardiff
Wolves
Ayr
Albion
Dumbarton

Line 3:
Tottenham
Chelsea
Derby
Leicester
East Fife

£1 on each, average return about 33 quid.

too late

He neglects to point out that Southampton's form at St Mary's isn't too great either, but that's for another thread...

Decided to keep high balls low last week and took St Johnstone and Albion Rovers to win with a £10 double. Followed by another £10 on Sunday on Rangers and Chelsea.

Then midweek went with £5 treble of Rangers, East Stirling and Dundee Utd only for Rangers to blow it.

So, this week I'll be returning to St Johnstone away to Clyde (who I'm told are rubbish) and Albion Rovers against Annan (who I know are rubbish). Two form teams against two struggling teams at 4-6 and 4-5.

Annan
Berwick
Arbroath

Lifechanger

£10 on Witham Town 0-4 Northwood at 16/1
£5 on Witham Town 0-1 Northwood at 13/2, just in case it's a borefest.

Witham have conceded 51 goals in their 15 league games so far, if the Woods can't win this then we have a big problem. They are 2/5 to win the match at bwin, which I think is actually a value bet, I would have made them 3/10 as they have quite a strong team available tomorrow, haven't backed the outright as bwin won't let me have anything with a payout of greater than £203.25

The amounts currently matched on Betfair make for interesting reading:

First Division:
Clyde v St Johnstone, £4,266
Dundee v Queen of the South, £312
Livingston v Dunfermline, £318

Second Division:
Brechin v East Fife, £1,025
Queen's Park v Ayr, £2,741
Raith Rovers v Peterhead, £3,037
Stirling v Arbroath, £257
Stranraer v Alloa, £1,304

Third Division:
Albion Rovers v Annan, £7,263
Cowdenbeath v Stenhousemuir, £295
East Stirlingshire v Dumbarton, £325
Elgin v Montrose, £1,172
Forfar v Berwick, £17,187

Not surprised to see that those two games in the Third Division have attracted by far the most interest, although I'm surprised at how much more has been matched on Forfar-Berwick than Albion-Annan. With Forfar's awful home record, the likelihood of them missing two strikers and Berwick's unpredictable nature in the wake of their manager leaving, this one seems quite risky.

Added another two whilst slightly merry lastnight.

St Johnstone
Brechin
Albion Rovers

treble, for aprox £70

Sunderland
Portsmouth
Dundee

trixie, for aprox £58

Small stakes for me this weekend, due to pay dau being friday, and a night out in glasgow tonight. Going to see the one and only..... Dizzee Rascal, lol
