I do a few accumulators every weekend, but haven't bothered the last 2 weeks cos at the end of the season it just gets a bit silly, good teams don't turn up, relegation-threated teams work wonders.

Who do you fancy for the drop tomorrow?

I normally study the tables and form, but the last couple of weeks i've not had time, so i just picked six teams at random and they all won, think it was Fulham, Northampton & Dagenham on one bet and West Brom, Bordeaux & Monchengladbach on the other. I had a tenner on Chelsea/Liverpool finishing 1-1 aswell. I normally have two £5 trebles on the weekend and they rarely come in, probably about once every couple of months or so, but providing you pick teams with good odds you'll generally get 8-10x your stake. Palace look like a good enough bet today at 4/5. At this time of the season i generally go for the teams that need to win, although it doesn't always work. Today i fancy Palace, Kalmar, Basel, Fenerbahce & Fiorentina, but they're all pretty hard to call and i wouldn't be surpised if some of them don't win. Some European leagues are quite hard to predict, especially the Italian, Spanish & Turkish, so i'll probably just go Palace, Kalmar, Basel.

Tomorrow's a bit dodgy, too, imo. Teams need to win but i'm not sure they will. I'm certain people will be piling money on Fulham, and to a lesser extent Birmingham & Reading to win, i'm not sure any of them will. I'll probably back a couple of longshots tomorrow, Pompey to beat Fulham at 12/5, City to beat Boro at 11/4. Not a good weekend for a bet really. The best market's probably the goalscorers. You can normall get 5/6 or similar on players like Ronaldo to score at any point during a game, so if you pick two, say him & Santa Cruz you tend to win.
