That's bloody double dutch to me? Me & the wife rely on our son for bets on the Grand Nat or Derby, the only time we ever bet on the horses. He was a manager at William Hill's a few years back. He would know what you mean by that 11,7537,965/1. I was a manager at Ladbrokes in the 90s Basically it's an almost 12 million to one chance that Falcaoholic has correctly predicted a 6 game correct score accumulator If he does that he's my God Bless you my son.

Bear in mind that picking all 6 lottery numbers is 14 million to 1 - so in comparison this would be easier

Bless you my son. Bear in mind that picking all 6 lottery numbers is 14 million to 1 - so in comparison this would be easier I can remember when the Littlewoods coupon was the big thing before the Lottery was created. I loved doing the coupon. The most I ever won on Littlewoods was £185 back in 1988. A lot of money then but I was working in a tyre remould factory at the time and was bringing in around £500/600 a week as the boss there payed us 85p a tyre as a bonus depending how many you knocked out. It was a long hard shift, start at 0600 in the morning and finish at 1800 hrs at night. Half a day Sat/Sun. I remember saying to the wife "Just won £185 on the coupon". Got the dosh and just chucked it on the table and said "Go buy yourself something". She cooly accepted it and spent it. £185 was peanuts too me then.

The thing is, we are pretty unpredictable at the moment in terms of performance level. In terms of results were doing okay......and on the back of that you'd have to say we'll do okay. I feel we are on the cusp of 'clicking' and really thrashing a few teams. I hope to be proven correct against Newcastle and arsenal. Equally well the defensive frailties (what the fuck has happened to Evans? ) means anything could happen and good old lady luck will have a part to play as we move into the final third of the season.. My gut feeling is that we will get enough points for top 4, how the individual results go is anyone's guess. I hope to fuck we beat City and Liverpool and hold our own against Chelsea.

Arguably this is the toughest set of fixtures for us: 1. Newcastle (A) 2. Tottenham (H) 3. Liverpool (A) 4. Aston Villa (H) 5. Man City (H) 6. Chelsea (A) If we can stay in the top four after these fixtures then we can be confident that we can finish inside top 4. I think we will win against Newcastle, Tottenham and Villa, draw against Liverpool and Loss against City and Chelsea. So I go for 10 points out of 18. 1. Newcastle - D 2. Tottenham - W 3. Liverpool - L 4. Aston Villa - W 5. Man City - D 6. Chelsea - D 9/18

We need to get fucking something. Liverpool were 10 points behind us. Now its 2. These players need to start stepping up and doing the business or we are in trouble.

These are the fixtures I was worrying about back in January. Really we should have a much better cushion. If we can win every home game (which is something we need to do I think) then we will be in a great position.

It will come down largely to the showdown with Arsenal in the second last week of the season, could be a Champions League decider as, even if we're on the fringes of fourth by then, three points could well put us back in.
If we can beat Newcastle and Tottenham it'd be an incredible start, but I'm hopeful we'll get draws against City and Chelsea - this team can literally sit on the ball for ages - the Chelsea game in particular could be a snoozefest of tactical chess.
Pool away will be tough.

Pool away will be tough. Pool away is the one we seem nailed on to lose. I have more hope in all the other games. Nothing would be better than beating pool at Anfield and keeping them out of the CL
