A Fish and his Chips

First one and England are down to 14 men for cynical play that stopped a definite try scoring opportunity.  Wales score 3 points.  Fair play to England, they close the play down for the next ten minutes and even manage to stick 3 points on the board when the Welsh frustration gets the better of them.

Yep, got that.  Is this some sort of slowroll rubdown about how we managed to concede 3 points whilst the oppo was down to 14 players ?

of course

Help.

Six Nations on a Friday night is good, don"t get me wrong, but the back to back games on a Saturday is what it"s all about.

Off to the New Forest for a bit to walk the dogs on this wet and windy day, then back indoors for a sporting afternoon.

Ireland to beat Italy by more than 13 please, and then the strange situation of supporting the French.  Let"s hope the Scots don"t have a braveheart moment.

I see NoseyP has a crazy 8 fold footie bet on aswell.  Good luck with that.

One final point on the illness thing.  Jen unfortunately picked up the same thing the following week and came out with the best line to cheer me up.

"I really don"t know how you managed to make it to work last week if you had the same as I"ve got now."

Man Flu, pah.  Don"t do sick days, which being self employed is a good thing, as don"t work, don"t get paid.

Anyway, I digress.  Jen did the sensible thing and after a week or so, phoned NHS Direct as she was worried that this bunged upness wasn"t clearing up.  The line of questioning went something like this :-

Q: How long have you felt like this ?
A: About ten days

Q: What do you do for a living ?
A: I"m an Accountant

Q: Have you taken cocaine recently ?
A: Have I what ?  No I have not.

Glad to see how easily you"re tarred with the same brush when being a young professional.

Apparantely around 85% of young professionals (Accountants, lawyers, etc) have dabbled with drugs at some point, mainly down to the stresses of their job and their significant incomes.  WTF ?

I don"t believe that figure.  The closest I"ve got lately is Beechams Flu Capsules.  

Ha that is hilar!!!

i"m finding it hard to see Anderlecht, PSV or Marseille losing...
Arles-Avignon - utter kack
Den Haag - lol
Sint-Truiden - who?

[SirPercival]

Right then, Six Nations kicks off in a bit.

Drawn in by another Betfair promo, 50% stakeback if one leg of a treble lets you down, so here we go.

Wales v England - England
France v Scotland +13.5pts - France
Italy +12.5pts v Ireland - Ireland

Odds - 5.77

Hate betting against Wales, but I think England have the momentum at the moment and may just be too strong for Wales, even with the home crowd behind them.  Sigh

hats off to whoever set the line.

[Chipaccrual]

Mar5eille done.

PSV and Anderlecht making hard work of it, both at 0-0 into the 2nd halves.

[Chipaccrual]

Watched the end of the PSV game on Betfair.

They really didn"t look like scoring, but neither did the oppo.

So, when Anderlecht went 2-0 up, decided to have a bit of the draw action in the PSV game, so I"d cover off any losses.


That went well.  Oppo score in injury time.  An expensive lesson.  FML  

[noble1]

Den Haag - lol

ul fella ....
