    Just bunged on £50 for tonights game to get over 100 points calculated as follows:

    10 poins a goal
    10 points penalty awarded
    10 points sending off
    3 points corner
    3 points yellow card

    Wasted or not wasted?

    I think that'll be a difficult one Paddy! You want a really attacking game, with plenty of converted penalties caused by deliberate handballs on the goal line, resulting in red cards ;D

    LOL - they ae the only one's in the world who do love me:)

    it was at 8/1 so win £400 plus stake back. My thought pattern on this is:

    Aidy said we must win every 50/50 tackle - dirty game a lot at stake.
    Aidy siad w will g at their throats - i take this to mean attacking for the kill = hopefully a few goals.
    Also if we go at them, they are fast for the counter attck = goals against ( not as many as us of course)
    Attacking game means end to ens, we have no midfield play = more chance of a lot of corners ( we have a good average corner ratio in games from what I've seen, but didn't check exact per game average)
    Sheff will get corners as well.
    Should be a battle so yellow cards are sure to come into the equation and even a red.

    Goals = say 2-1 = 30 points
    Penalty (none but we really are due one after Aidy's outburst of ref's decision) = 0 points at worst any are a bonus
    Sending off = 1 due to a dirty game, disent and or bad timed challenge due to pitch conditions = 10 points
    Corners- WFC 10 Sheff Utd 5 = 45 points
    yellows WFC 3 Sheff Ud 3 = 18 points

    Grand total 103.

    WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY:)

    You will be lucky.

    My money is on 3-2 Doris last goal and same score Shittu last goal.

    Off to check odds checker soon to see who has the best prices where I have an account.

    Good luck Jobby - if yours comes in, mine stands a superb chance - 50 points just on the golas. if they we all penalties that would be 100 points and no doubt a yellow would have at least been issued for one of them

    Get in there.

    Who's the ref tonight?

    A bet is never a waste of money!

    I was going to 3.2 with Hendo to score first, done that with Vcash. My bets always seem to backfire though and so I always worry about jinxing the game (stupid and irrational I know).

    Instead I just punish teams whose results have no effect on us by betting on them ;D

    A fella named Martin Atkinson. He refereed our home match against Wet Spam earlier in the season, where he handed out the sum total of ZERO yellow cards and ZERO red cards. He refereed the Tyne-Tees derby and stretched himself to ONE yellow card only. Hehe. In total he's dished out 33Y and 2R in 13 matches so far, including 7Y in the Arsenal v Newcastle match 10 days ago.

    Sounds like he was told off for being too leniant in that case. and the two reds doesn't make him shy.

    Who's the winker in the black?
