LOI round 13

Ok then. It was a few weeks back, so maybe the home form has picked up a bit since.

According to my computed analysis, this is what is predicted:

Bohemians to beat Drogheda United
Bray Wanderers and Cork City to draw
Derry City and Shamrock Rovers to draw
Dundalk to lose to St Patrick's Athletic
Sligo Rovers and Galway United to draw

Limerick to lose to UCD
Sporting Fingal to beat Waterford United
Monaghan United to lose to Longford Town
Wexford Youths to beat Shelbourne
Finn Harps to beat Kildare County
Athlone Town and Mervue United to draw

Do not take in literally, a bit of test run this week :D

My bets are spread across various bookies in various forms but a summary is:

Waterford to win or draw vs Fingal

Wexford to win or draw vs Shelbourne

Bohemians -1 to beat Drogheda

UCD to beat Limerick

Over 2.5 goals in Athlone v Mervue

Can I play the pessimist and suggest Limerick will get a draw out of tomorrow's game? 11/5; will have a look and see if I feel like it tomorrow.

(I can't tell if that spoils your fun or not)

Bohemians -v- Drogheda

Went down to Celtics today to see what price they would give me on Bohs (-1). Girl rang up head office, I was expecting 10/11 at most. They gave her 9/4! I doubled checked with her if that was right, she said yes. So off I went to a hole in the wall for some cash. So back in the shop I placed the bet. She rang back over if it was alright to take it. They gave the go ahead and confirmed that the price was grand. Now this could well be a mistake by one of their compliers but there were 2 separate phone calls and both confirmed Bohs -1 was 9/4. That is massive.

I reckon the clowns in head office were looking at the handicap for Rovers -V- Bohs from last Saturday? Bohs would have been 9/4 for in that minus a goal yeah?! I can understand that it is a mistake but what will pish me off is the fact that the lady behind the counter made two phone calls, each 10 minutes apart.

Anyway, back to the game itself. Best price around on this is 10/11 with Hacketts. Bohs have lost their last 2 but they have a great chance this weekend to make amends and Drogs will be like lambs to the slaughter. Drogs haven't been trashed yet, this will change tomorrow.

Monaghan to win and Bohs to win + keep a clean sheet (11/10 with Boyles) interest me this weekend.

That has to be a mistake. Bohs win to nil is 4/6 and 4/7 elsewhere and I cant see it on Boyle's website now. You can't do a double of Bohs to win and Bohs to keep a clean sheet because they are related events.

Actually I see it now on their website - EVS!!

Lump on is all I can say! Value bet of the year ... other than Bohs -1 @ 9/4 !!!

After looking at the -2 betting on powers I reckon that was the bet quoted to me unfortunately. If Bohs do hockey these tonight, which I think they will, tomorrow morning should be fun.

A small stake on Jason Byrne to score 2 or more @ 9/2 looks a decent bet to me.

Bohs -1 was 8/11 in Celtic yesterday evening btw

Yup. Think I'll try chance my arm in a refund due to the palpable error. No chance though.

Whatever the possible financial trouble behind the scenes, on the pitch they are doing the business, and should prove too strong for a plucky, but green Bray outfit. 3/4 is a decent price given their run (was 4/5 earlier) and I feel this is the most secure bet of the weekend.

Backing Cork City to win, (Bet365) @ 3-4 - 3 pts

Nice wan. I was at the game and Cork were well worth the win. They could've had 3 or 4 and it would have been deserved.

Hi

I hadn't forgotten about you, I have been on the road all week. In relation to blatant or palpable errors, the payout is calculated on the correct price at the time of placing the bet, whether that is to the customer's advantage or otherwise.

This issue seems to be very topical at the moment as I have heard that there has been some discussion on internet sites over the past few days on the subject. Unfortunately I have no basis on which to void your bet or to give you a free bet, however I am happy to offer you a free €50.00 bet as a gesture of goodwill for bringing the issue to my attention.

If you would like to take me up on this offer please drop me a line letting me know which of our branches you would like to pick up your free bet from?

Regards

I take it that 50 is nowhere near what you put on?

Yes there are spies in our midst :)

The bet was a loser anyway. I'd take the 50 off him with glee. :)
