city, united, arsenal treble pays +134...kinda short for a three teamer and wigan is one my favourite teams this week but really hard to imagine a slip up this weekend by anyone. The shockers come from teams in relegation and Norwich is one of those middle table teams. Of course they will want to win but i don't see it. I don't bet the Arsenal so maybe united/city -114ish for me.

That looked like the September City....The good ole days when Spurs and United crumbled under the City $$$$$$$. If Tevez and Mario had played like grown-ups all year and Mancini could motivate and manage his talent this team wouldn't need to worry about a result in anybody else's matches. I like the Argy duo up top...thanks Wigan for keeping this interesting.

Unfortunately the albiceleste duo is done in another month...England will bid adieu to carlito...n if the stars line up correctly Mancini is gone as well...

That being said...goal difference could be a decider...will wolves put one away today? I guess that is the question in regards to playing the over...hmmm..City, knowing this result, should come on like a caged tiger....one would think?

people are such nobs...if anyone thinks city just won the title, they should hand in their football viewing membership...anything can happen, wolves SHOULD be a victory..i'll readily admit...but i can't understand why most i speak with think the derby(which is turning out to be one for the ages, and your narrator gave up on his tickets 2 weeks ago, ugghhh...stupid boy i am) is a foregone conclusion?....yes, i believe they will beat utd. but it's not a given..and let us not forget that city still have to go up to the god foresaken northeast and play newcastle....who are one of the best squads at home.... realize utd have to go up to the hinterlands as well and play sundy....but what will they be playing for?...Newcastle will be playing for champions league!!!.....that's monumental up that way....reason i bring most of this up is because i just stopped into the pub to place a few bets on the city game as well as Rolltide's NYRB over, and heard many of the punters and frauds talking a big game....that being said.....time to unload...

halftime/fulltime...City:8/13 $1300 to win $800
win both halves...City:11/8 $800 to win $1100
city 5-2@50-1 odds $100 to win $5000
city 3-1@17-2 odds $100 to win $850
city 4-3@90-1 odds $100 to win $9000
aguero first goal scorer n City win 5-2@125-1 odds $100 to win $12.5k.....i see City winning but rather lazily at given points....hence the correct score markets indicating wolves goals....besides, why would city make it nice and tidy?...so, in lieu of putting a limit bet($2500) on City(which would get back roughly $575 i believe at the moment, i spread the bread around with some of the gimmicks, yet still trying to make some proper money this morning..good luck...cheers and as always, GO CITY

Can't believe Man. U. blew a 4-2 lead. The door is opened just a crack now for Man. City.

If they are exactly tied in points at the end of the season, what is the first tiebreaker? Head to head record between the two clubs?

goal differential...that's why 'the wop' was beside himself that that they only scored 2 goals..i counted at least 4 others that were pocketed for the back of the net that somehow never made it

goal difference is the first tie breaker. At least the match will be important win or lose...funny enough 4-4 and there was 5 mins of stoppage time....haha....a lot of goals in the 2nd half so 5 mins might have been right but man u tied = 5 mins stoppage time. that's 3 in a row. liverpool losing was the game of the week for me...norwich at home +280 vs 'pool might be a gift. Or at least good value

Goal differential for the season? Wow. I thought for sure if Man. City beat Man. U. twice, then that was the tiebreaker.

Why is the game on a Monday? Unbelievable, I'm not going to be able to watch it live.


Is that headcase Balotelli going to be back in the lineup next week? They seem to be playing better without him.

this one is tough for me. This game just screams over with city knowing they have to attack from the start and if they get an early one united will have to step it up. But 1 vs 2 with everything on the line tend to always be super tight early and i could see 0-0 HT and maybe 1 act of brilliance or an own goal making it 1-0 0-1. In fact 5 straight league game with City being the home side have seen 1 goal or less. Now 5 of 6 as united the home side have gone over and the cup match was 2-3. So this year and really h2h yield plenty of overs. I checked elsewhere and the over is a popular play so that scares me too.

This game you really don't have to bet because it is a big enough but until recent the top 4-5 playing each other has been a goalfest and certainly a lot of goals this weekend in the EPL. Perhaps players are fighting for EURO jobs and although both sides have ton already locked into their countries roster, perhaps a good game here would secure a 1st team for some players.

I want to bet over just because i want a classic 3-2 4-3 game but just the over 2.5 and poor juice. GL today - for me i am just glad their is meaning in this one and either side hadn't locked it up already.

well, if were to bet this one it would be the under and whatever +$ i could grab...utd. basically walk away w/the title with a draw....why wouldn't they play tight....and 'the wop' is sure to put out a midfield dominated squad tonite in hopes of grabbing one and stealing away....he says balotelli is getting called up but is that to start?...i don't think he has the nerve, knowing full well he is twat hair away from a red card at any moment....the smart move is to keep balo on the pine and make him one of your 70' subsitutes...keep the argentinian duo up front...but who knows if he keeps that in tact...this is setting up as a nasri-yaya-barry-de jong-silva game w/only kun up front...which makes no sense but to only mancini....where you have 3 guys who do the same job(yaya,barry,nigel)...been extrememly distracted lately, so haven't talked to my bro for any info...as soon as he heard i wasn't coming he pretty much stopped taking my calls/emails, prick that he is...here's to hopes that kun and carlito are upfront and barry is nowhere to be found...cheers and go city

newcastle really +1.25 on wed?

surely chelsea have to change out some guys with their defense in shambles and the FA Cup final on the weekend and newcastle haven't lost b2b epl games in 2012

chelsea exact same price as yesterday vs a relegation candidate as they are against #5? awfully fishy line

not very optimistic about the match today. really need rooney to step up, rio/evans at top of game against slimy args, and sir alex to outcoach mancini. pretty sure the last one is a done deal but we'll see about the others. interested to see lineup cards. guessing rooney is first name on it, followed by scholes, evra, carrick, valencia, and rio. Park was an auto selection last year in every big game so wouldn't be shocked if he gets the tap ahead of young. rumor is nani sprained his ankle this weekend so he's out and anderson still out which is a killer as he'd have been great in def mf with carrick today.

big decisions are jones vs rafael, park vs young vs giggs, smalling vs evans, 4-5-1 and add in giggs or normal 4-4-2 with dw up front? no idea

sir alex was quoted that he changed "2 or 3 things" for this match and he hoped he was making the right decision. wouldn't be shocked at 4-5-1 with carrick, scholes, valencia, park, and giggs with young in for giggs around the hour mark. prefer 4-4-2 as DW has been a workhorse up front. dunno, can't stop thinking about it and gotta get a couple minutes of work done today :)

nani out surely changes things...his speed down the wing is a problem for every fullback we have except richards...but there is doubt whether richards gets start tonight...ps. out-coaching the wop should not be a badge of courage(insert laughter)
