Last week did not go all that well, 4 bets, 4 losses. I can promise that this week will not have the same outcome, mainly due to the fact that I'm only having 2 bets.
Newcastle to beat Blackburn 10/11
The cockney mafia controlled toon army seem to have become a solid but unspectacular mid table team. Blackburn used to be just that before the Indians took over and tried to curry favour with fans to good football by sacking Big Samosa Allardyce. Their subsequent decision to give Steve Keen the job was as dopiaza it was to get rid of Sam who this year will lead West Ham to the Championship title.
Last weekends win over Arsenal was more down to Arsenal's defensive failings and lineman incompetence rather than good play from Blackburn. Yakubu although he did take his first goal well could be as slow as former toon 'star' Andy Carroll and shouldn't cause many problems for the Newcastle back line.

Man Utd -1 @ Stoke EVS
Stoke's 1-0 victory over Liverpool lead to some journos' proclaiming them top 4 candidates. i say they are fat, bearded, deluded idiots and so does their 4-0 hammering at Sunderland last Sunday.
A closer look at Stoke's start reveals they were lucky to draw with Chelsea on the opening weekend, stole a last point from a trip to Norwich, kicked the ball out of Ben Foster's hands to win at Woys West Bwom, had 1 shot and were played off the park by Liverpool, then reality set in at Sunderland. Tony Pulis splashed the cash at the end of the transfer window but if he thinks Peter Crouch is a better player than any of Jones, Fuller or Walters then he's as mad as his Labour Party funding boss.
It wouldn't surprise me if Man Utd had this wrapped up by half time and rested up in the 2nd as they're sure to have their champion league clash with the mighty Basle on Tuesday night in mind.
