This is real money and we currently have £1811.75 in the OLBG betting fund.

As the season has progressed the debate has become better,more informed, sensible and inciteful. Well done everyone. Some results have not gone for us and we have lost money, but lets finish with some wins and claw some money back.

We now have 4 categorys. This thread is for the Other bets discussion and poll. Please add your reasoned posts and vote on which match we should go for in this category as our choice.

Remember our funds are growing and to work out the downside as well as the potential profit.


Stage 3 Thursday/Friday
Then for the final decision thread. We will be having a poll


Stage 4 Friday
We then poll for the stake with lots of options (in units of 100) and take the weighted average of all votes rounded to the nearest £50.

I'd say lets go for it and give those going to the OLBG day at Villa Park something to cheer for.

The Match thread was very strong on the Villa win.

Whilst not wishing to encourage chasing losses I'd certainly be very happy to vote for 600 @2.70 here Shocked rather than 1000 on the AH-1 @evens.

JFDI Win

Not that I personally need anything extra to cheer for but do think this is a highly likely to happen.

Excuse my ignorance please. What means D/H ?
I have searched the Bl v De thread and have not found such bet or notation.

Draw/Blackburn HT/FT, are you referring to this one? this is a nice bet (better than Villas imo) and it is now @ 4.75 according to Valuechecker.

Vote later.

good luck Win

Statistically Derby are level at HT every second game.

However, since I unearthed that dubious stat, they have burned my fingers badly, and I wish the mother of all thrashings upon them.

As for Villa - I think it is a question of whether this bet or the AH -1 gets the green light for BoTW

I am tempted to go greedy with the strength of confidence which seems to be behind them.

Are the Villa boys going to walk the walk like they talk the talk?

Prefer the other selections out there 2bh... however good to see these seeing the light of day.

Out of the two..Id be tempted more with the Villa game..however, not voting on either..as I think we're better covered elsewhere for a BOW

Would rather play roulette than do long odd bets on Derby. One no more predictable than the other!
