I think its a great punt, and 46% support is emphatic.
Form is on our side
History is on our side
Fingers crossed that God is on our side too! |

Well, we know God is a Geordie (according to the folks at St. James' Park up there) & they are managed by the "Messiah" if they're to be believed as well. 
Seriously, despite my anti-NUFC views, I think this is a great bet if only due to the fact the price should be shorter IMO. Can't manage a "Howay the lads!" for it but will be wishing for another poor outing by the Hammers.
Just glad I didn't back the Bar Codes to get relegated.....

Stake`s a little bit high to me...but it`s time to take a chance if were going to reach a decent Bank amount.
All we really need is Newcastle to be up for this game....and to keep up their good form.
Fingers crossed everyone!! |

This is a real could chance for us to realy make something from this trail season of olbg vs the bookies.
a Fantasic price of nearly 2/1 and a very good stake of £550.
If this wins we will be very close to our target of 4,000 if it does not win then we cant say we never gave it a good bash
newcastle will realy want another win and form is very much on there side.
West ham playing some youngsters and this could realy be the price of the day as the vlaue is there with the form
only dangor is the dreaded draw which is why id probley have liked the AH or double chance bets better but the value aint as good and im willing to take the gamble.
If we get to the target this season this is the game we will all be talking about when we sit there at Villa park on the 3rd of may celebrating a season well done

There are lots of Aston Villa fans here - and a great offer to see their final home game of the season in style courtesy of OLBG.
Here's a couple of Villa trivia questions:
Who defeated Villa 1-0 in the 1959 FA Cup semi-final ?
Who did Villa sell to Forest for £3 million in the 1999-2000 season ?
Will Newcastle win tomorrow - of course they will. I'm the eternal optimist - we've bounced back so many times, and now it's time to spring forward.
See you at the start line - herbs

Hammers won't win, even with Ashton back!  So good odds.
Good job we live in the world of virtual credit, could anyone really count out £550 of real readies in a bookies and place it on a Newc away win?!?!? Gulp! Fair play to the reasoning from one £900 voter, logic taken on board (i can never get on here during daytime to vote/post on Stake - blimmin office firewalls. Grrr), shame the other 3 £900 voters kept so quiet.
Best of luck folks, all in it together & all that. Success or bust week. C'MON THE TOON.

I'm guessing you are a Forest Fan to be asking these questions herby.
The first answer is definately Forest - game played at Hillsborough.
As for the second one the only player I can think of from around that time that moved that way was Colin Calderwood ?
Happy with BOTW - West Ham are certainly a team to back against at this stage of the season and Newcastle's form should see them collect the points.

I don't support any particular side to be honest, but i do like to see Bradford City do well, however they have been very disappointing in recent years since their fall from the premiership.
Well done John Mac:
Nottingham Forest did beat Villa 1-0 in the 1959 FA Cup semi.
A further clue for the £3 million player question - this player now plays for Cardiff City. |
