    Odds on both bets have been hammered in. Early bird catches the worm and all that jazz...

    Janey.... what looked to be two great value bets end in disaster.

    Could have cashed out for profit given out the odds/lines changed on both bets... hindsight is great.

    I'm away on holidays the next two Fridays so may not get a chance to post the bets up - one of the other lads I pick bets with will be posting them into the Facebook group. If anyone whos in there wants to C&P it in here that would be sound!

    Gav's bets....



    **League of Ireland Bets**
    Poor week last week. Bray looked good on paper but got turned over badly, and Waterford missed a lot of chances against Rovers to add to our woes.

    One bet this week to try get back on track in what is a tough week for selections.
    Bet: Dundalk v Bohs (SUNDAY)
    Bohs big result last week has held this line to a decent price and we fancy Dundalk to comfortably take 3 points.

    Dundalk -1.5 Asian Handicap (1.875)

    *******************
    We had also discussed UCD on the handicap but the line of -2.5 was just a bit too big for us. Preferably -2. Worth keeping an eye on for inplay.

    Nice winner last week now onto this week. Quite a tricky week but going with two small staked bets for tonight
    Shels -1.25 4/5 365 - SMALL STAKE
    Shels coming off the back of a impressive 6-1 win against a decent longford team. They've signed to premier div players from Bohs Moore & Kavanagh in this window. Moore scored a hattrick on his debut last week & kavanagh will probably start also tonight. Shels seem much improved recently & we expect them to win by a couple here

    Cork Win 5/6 boyles/laddies - SMALL STAKE
    Basically a must win game for Cork like all of their games to keep their title race with Dundalk going. One bad result & the league could be gone. Cork also playing very well as of late. Waterford on the other hand are in a bit of a slump & are coming off the back of a loss to relegation candidates Limerick. The hype has died down a bit with Waterford & we expect Cork to close this game out fine

    Bohs, City, Pats over 2.5 and over 2.5 in Derry game at 7.43/1 for interest tonight.

    Hopefully we can continue the good picks and make it 3 weeks in a row with a clean sweep of winners! This is FAI Cup opening weekend so bets are kept to smalls. Bohs should be too strong for a poor Wexford team while Dundalk will want revenge for their embarrassing result against Cobh last week in the Semi Final of the League Cup, Dundalk have home advantage this time so their astro will play to their advantage. No Handicap up on St. Pats but a -2.5 would be worth it on them inplay.

    Bohemians -1.5 (Asian) or -1 (Euro) @ 1.75 (Bet365/Boyles) - Small Stake
    Dundalk -2.75 (Asian) @ 1.80 (Bet365) - Small Stake

    Hopefully we can continue the good picks and make it 4 weeks in a row with a clean sweep of winners! Shels with a must win game to keep up the chances of getting 2nd spot (one less set of playoff games compared to 3rd/4th places). Cork with a must win too to keep pushing away from Dundalk with their games in hand, Pats have lost their last 5 away League games - failing to score in 3 of them.

    Shelbourne -1.5 (Asian) or -1 (Euro) @ 1.80 (General) - Small Stake
    Cork -1 (Asian) @ 1.95 (Bet365) - Small Stake

    Overs in Derry, Rovers and Shels games just over 5/1

    Edit ....only Rovers lets it down, overs came in 7 of the 8 games.

    And our run comes to an abort end...

    We were brutal against Wexford and assuming Cork weren't great today...

    No pre-game bets - odds opened up tasty enough on Cork City but they've been hammered in so all value gone. Potentially an inplay bet on them after 15 minutes if it's 0-0. Keep an eye in the FB group (I may or may not get to post here any inplay bet).

    From racing post-

    UCD
    4pts 8-15 Paddy Power
    UCD to win the FAI Cup
    1pt 28-1 BoyleSports
    Bohemians -1 on Asian handicap
    5pts 23-20 bet365

    UCD are more backable at 8-15 against CIE Ranch at Greenogue. Peamount United's ground will suit free-flowing College, who are worth a small interest at 28-1 to go all the way, given their excellent First Division campaign. They have ridden their luck with the draw and should be safely in the last eight.

    Bohemians are one of the Premier Division's form sides and it should be noted that Galway's matches against the five teams above them have yielded a single win all season in the second tier.

    They were blown apart by Longford last Friday and it is hard to see anything other than a comfortable Bohemians win at Eamonn Deacy Park, with this competition likely to be targeted by Bohs, who are safe from relegation.

    Johnny Ward?

    No idea how he's doing lately, but he had a howler on Cork a few weeks ago. 5pt bet and all.

    ***LEAGUE OF IRELAND BETS***
    No bets last week with it being Cup weekend, only Cork caught our eye but odds didn't last whatsoever. This week we go with Rovers following on from their 2-1 win against Dundalk on Tuesday. Bray sit bottom with 15 points from 29 games and a -57 GD. Rovers will be out to keep pressure on Waterford for that 3rd spot and the European spot. We fancy Drogs to push UCD at home - Drogs with an excellent home record this season will be looking to win to secure their playoff spot while table toppers UCD had a near slip up against Cobh and non League CIE ranch in the past two weeks.

    Shamrock Rovers -1.5 (Asian) or -1 (Euro) @ 1.85 (General) - Medium Stake
    Cork City -1 (Asian) @ 1.80 (General) - Small/Med Stake
    Drogheda DNB or 0 (Asian) @ 1.80 (General) - Small Stake

    Added bet to the bets Cork City -1 (Asian) @ 1.80 (General) - Small/Med Stake.
    Big drift on Cork so this is definitely backable now!

    Bookies always weary of the Cup it seems. Asians don't go near them until Bet365 go it seems.

    Huge price, +0.5 on Bet365 is a gift @ 1.825

    Am I right in saying +0.5 is the same as Derry and Draw? Only 8/11 on PP sadly.
