That's the handicap tie I'm afraid, means a bonus for the odds complier on that one and no payout for the punter! |

Yup. Draw. Handicap draws happen more often than you might think. At 16/1 they aren't a bad bet. |

| Couldn't believe Purdham landed that last kick from the touchline.  |

Have a look around the firms, most were pricing up at hudds -6, you'd have just won with one of them |

2 England games in a row last autumn. Big bonuses for the compilers. Great bet in-play is the handicap tie. |

I had Huddersfield (-6) and Wigan (-14) from last night. That's cutting it a bit close. Just need Cas to win by more than 2, and Saints to win by more than 8 - put a lucky 15 on, so should be quids in!

-6 on weds, presumed they moved to -8 after that then, must have been a few on at -6 |

Every firm (AFAIK) was -8 by kick off. Bookies had it absolutely spot on. |
