Friendly Oxford / ManU

[chriscol]

Pinny has currently Oxford Utd - ManU -1.5,-1:

which means Oxford as clear favourite....is this a wrong line or is ManU resting the whole team? i am never sure with these friendlies

 

[chriscol]

i just saw that Watford is also clear favourite (-1,-0.5) over Inter Mailand ?????????????????

Anybody with infos?

 

[chriscol]

pinny took the Manu game off and its now back with Manu -1,-1.5. so it was a wrong line, but i am still wondering about Watford.

i would've thought (-1.5,-1.0) & (-1.0,-1.5) is the same thing Chriscol ?!

both represented in decimals as -1.25, but the (-1.0,-1.5) is the correct way to display it.

and inter +0.75 is a big cockup cos everywhere else is -0.75, try it mate, whats the worst that can happen ?
pinny void the bet...or inter lose by 2 ?

that s not what i meant...the opening line was Oxford -1,-1.5 and ManU +1,+1.5..so that was obviously a wrong line.

But i am still wondering if Manu is the play here.
They will play 6 or 7 regular starters, maybe even rooney according to the oxford web-side http://www.oufc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10342~878841,00.html

and Oxford also does not seem to play the strongest team. According to the report their coach plans to give every player a opportunity to play...that s not a sign of quality if you are talking a nationwide league team...even a pre-season Manu Team should beat them.

im considering this game myself mate, saha, sivestre and possibly heinze mite start, but fergie is very tight lipped about ronny as well as roony cos they have a game against sevilla on sat, but theres been secruity fears for ronny tonite.
if fergie is worried, then im sure ronny wont play

Cristiano Ronaldo, Gabriel Heinze, Louis Saha and Mikael Silvestre are all set to make their first pre-season appearances since returning from Germany.

The more experienced players are accompanied to the Kassam Stadium by a healthy number of younger players, including Academy striker Sean Evans.

United: Foster, Heaton, Simpson, Bardsley, Heinze, O'Shea, Silvestre, Richardson, Miller, Fletcher, D Jones, R Jones, Martin, Ronaldo, Solskjaer, Saha, Rossi, S Evans.
