Gateshead v Rushden & Dmonds
Mansfield v Oxford Utd
Sunderland v Birmingham
SD Padres -1.5 @ PIT Pirates
SF Giants @ ARI Diamondbacks

Any thoughts?

One of those games that could go either way. One to stay away from if you ask me. Haven't a scooby on what bets to do for tonight.

I'm thinking I might have a reasonable sized bet on a Pompey, Blackburn and Shorpe treble. Then have £5 on something that pays about 20/1. But what I will go for I havn't made my mind up yet.

Nothing I fancy tonight. Can't stand the Carling Cup.

Anything can happen, bookies love it though

I know I seem to be dissing everyone who puts up Carling Cup tips but I think Forest will beat Blackburn as they are creating alot of chances but not getting the rub (Ian Holloway commented how Blackpool robbed them on Saturday) and I think this will be their chance to come good against a Blackburn side that however they line up will not have much to scare Forest.

And I think Mansfield will beat Oxford


Think that makes a 4 timer from picking on other's tips

Blackpool
Forest
Mansfield
Peterborough

Now if I can find good odds with draw no bet that has a bit of potential about it and then a small 4 timer all to win.

Any particular reason?

Just a case of two pretty evenly matched teams and one being about 5/2 at home in a match they will want to be well up for after a good start but a couple of late reversals recently.

I do not think Oxford are quite as good as the table makes out and at home fair enough they would probably beat Mansfield but on the road I just think this match is made to stall their charge a little.

Oh and 6 clean sheets on the trot is just greedy!!!!

But I talked you out of doing Cardiff so would not want to do so again

Got £1 on

Leeds v Liverpool DRAW 5/2
Shorpe 1/2 v Port Vale
Gateshead v Rushden 10/11
Hull v Everton 21/20
Preston v Tottenham 4/6
Villarreal v Real Madrid 8/13

Returns - £55.32

Ok so I'm going with

Shorpe v Port Vale
Gateshead v Rushden
Hull v Everton
Preston v Tottenham
Villarreal v Real Madrid

Tipped and backed Matlock as a good thing last week in the FA Cup and they came good, won away 4-3 at the league leaders on Saturday (alas did not back them then)and are odds against at home tonight v Frickley.

Looks good to me
