I mentioned the other day that I have decided to try something different in terms of my boring old football bet that I have been doing for eons. Instead of five results (one from each section), I am doing a perm on eight results in two sets of four. Last week was my first effort which went spectacularly wrong. I have been encouraged to believe that I will get my stake returned most weeks and still have the relatively long-shot of a clean sweep which would net me close to what I might have managed once a season with five results (odds dependent obviously). This is week two of a three week trial and I thought I'd share the bet....
1. Arsenal v Bolton (1/4 home win)
2. Fulham v Wolves (5/6 home win)
3. Bournemouth v Dagenham & Redbridge (4/5 home win)
4. Swindon v Southampton (13/8 away win)
5. Burnley v Preston (4/6 home win)
6. Cardiff v Hull (4/7 home win)
7. Colchester v Plymouth (11/10 home win)
8. Bristol Rovers v Brentford (7/5 home win)
11 bets @ £3 each = £33
8 Trebles
1, 2, 3 = £12.37
1, 2, 4 = £18.03
1, 3, 4 = £17.72
2, 3, 4 = £25.98
5, 6, 7 = £16.48
5, 6, 8 = £18.84
5, 7, 8 = £25.20
6, 7, 8 = £23.73
2 Quadruples
1, 2, 3, 4 = £32.47
5, 6, 7, 8 = £39.55
All 8 = £428.55
TOTAL clean sweep = £658.92 (20-1)
- prize to anyone who checks my maths and finds an error....
