Nah I was watching the united game with a cheeky eye on the Real game.

Did you see the best dive in the history of football. The whole pub were pissing themselves when they replayed it.

either way, Benfica are still pish!

Yookay is full of desperate people.
Don't they have those adverts and TV programmes in other countries then...

Another week of bad betting luck....

I had a punt on Weds Champ league and Thurs UEFA Cup games. Had a real mish mash on along with some rather optimistic long accas (3 with 11 games in them).

Thurs night I checked in on them and of the 3 long accas I had I had been let down by one team in each. Lazio in two of the accas and Genk in the other. If Lazio had of won then I would have been about 6 grand (GBP) up and if Genk had won as well that would have been nearer 8 grand.

Mega mega booooo!

Anyway, onwards and upwards. Any predictions for tonight? Two pretty healthy derbys. I'm thinking Newcastle (as Sunderland are dire at the minute) followed by either a Chelski win or draw.
