I am in London spending the whole day in the books betting and drinking.

I wanna play for the action only but as informed as I can. There are 8 FA cup games this weekend and some more league games. I have been studying all week and here is what I got so far.

Liverpool v Man utd. Liverpool is getting some sharp action but the papers and public seem to be on them as well. Man U has been less than spectacular the last five but the Glazers own them so I root for Man U. I just am looking for a reason to play them.

Preston v Middlesbrough This one is interesting because Preston is on a 22 game unbeaten streak but 8-5 at home. That is one of the nicer prices for a home team and Middlesbrough may be in the Premiership but they are at the bottom of it. I have seen most of the local guys on Preston as well.

Bolton v West Ham Bolton is getting all of the action and seem to have West Ham's number, doesn't seem like much of a play to me.

Charlton v Brentford Brentford is getting a nice 13-2 on the road and some backing in the papers. Any takers?

Newcastle v Southampton Newcastle big fav, not much else.

Stoke v Birmingham Stoke has lots of internal fighting as far as I can tell. Birmingham is evens, seems like a decent spot but probably very public play.

Chelsea v Colchester Much has been written in the papers this week about Colchester manager comments about Chelsea being vulnerable. Papers seem to agree but think it will be against Barcelona not Colchester. Lottery price on Colchester.

Aston Villa v Man City Confusing comments about this game in the papers, I am way too American to understand what the hell they are talking about but I know most like Aston Villa at home at 11-8.

I only did the write ups to generate conversation. This is to the best of my interpretation so if there are mistakes please help me. I need picks fast, Liverpool v Man utd kicks off at 7:30 AM EST.

Tottenham this weekend, not sure i can punt on my own team but its a great bet.
Wigan will say they will play their usual 100% but which player doesnt want to play in the cup final next weekend...it will not only be on the players' mind to stay injury free, but also manager Paul Jewells as they know they have a chance against Man Utd.

I may still punt on it, i'll let you know !

Brings back a lot of good memories, and some not so good ones, he, he...

I ll get back to you when i get the time, but by all means pick up a copy of the sun and get some info from the locals too, the sun's good over a pint or two (or three) for its entertainment value too.

If you put a gun to my head I'd bet the following teams:

Liverpool pk v Man United, 1.93
Preston pk v Middlesbrough, 2.02
Bolton v West Ham +0.5, 1.82
Charlton v Brentford +1.25, 1.87
Newcastle -1.25 v Southampton, 1.95
Stoke +0.25 v Birmingham, 2.03
Chelsea v Colchester +2.5, 1.77
Aston Villa -0.25 v Man City, 2.01


Have a great time in London!
