I'm going for Waterford again, 1/2 (Will Hill) away to Salthill Devon on Saturday. The record of each team is the inverse of the other, with W'ford having won 3 out of 3, scored 6, conceded 0, and Salthill lost 3, scored none and conceded 6.
Price isn't great but it's the most solid thing going this weekend.
Depending on prices, I might also look at laying a currently-awful Shamrock Rovers.
Should be buying money at 1/2 there!
I saw Salthill in their first two senior games and they look decent at times. They show little or no ambition though and are content to sit back and hope for the best. They will pick up the odd draw though, as they're compact and hard to break down until you get the first goal.
Charge!
Anyone else getting involved this week?
RR, you got your eye on anyone?
Tricky enough week tbh. Tempted to pile into waterford but don't trust first division teams away form home
Yeah not much to get excited about this weekend although I think Derry should be comfortable enough at home to Athlone.
Athlone, who held Cork, who in turn drew with Derry?
Having a punt on Finn Harps myself. They impressed me on the opening day and we were lucky to beat them. They've won their next 2 games without conceding. According to reports, we should have been 2 or 3 up by half time last week in Limerick and then fell apart in the 2nd half. I fancy Harps to take this one though. 2 pts at 5/4.
Yes the same Athlone that are missing a few first teamers tonight.Quote:

Very very tempted by us against Bray at 4/7 tonight with PP. I imagine Bray will be similar to Drogheda, whom we tore through. But then I imagine jinxes and all sorts of nonsense stuff...
Waterford United gone 1/4 with PP and 4/11 with WH now v Salthill tomorrow.
Had a small bet from my online account with PP on Waterford United -1 at EVS
Just doing a WUFC, Foras, and Spurs treble @ 13/8.Quote:

Going for a Fingal and UCD double and a Waterford single myself.
When did PP stop doing first goalscorer/anytime scorer markets for the First Division?
Anyway, I've got 2pts on Derry and 1.5pts on UCD and Cork. Bohs/Fingal double is tempting me as well.
BOOM! +2.6pts. :)
I'm sure I'd be able to use the same line of thought that would make UCD a sure thing to win the Champions League.Quote:

Yeah Waterford -1@evs is a great bet imo. I've a few bob on it anyways!
Glad I just stuck to the win-draw-win market myself! :)
Yeah that was a sore hit I took! :(Quote:

Total staked: 20.5pts

ROI: 22%
Nothing special, but decent all the same.
I'm in on Bohs tonight at 9/20. Should come through fairly easily. 1/2 point.
Games off.Quote:
