According to the William Hill football betting 'live page'

PL - 7 games still on
Champ - 7 games
lg 1 - 4 games
lg 2 - 4 games
Scottish Cup - 2 games.

Obviously that situation is a 'moving beast', which is what an old area manager of mine always used to say when you asked him a question about something that he didn't have or didn't want to give an answer for.

Time to check the football betting opportunities elsewhere in Europe and beyond.

Boro V Leeds is on this evening. However play off hopefuls  pulis boro are not starting Assombalonga which is very  surprising. Top goalscorer that he is would grace most teams in championship. Unlucky for Gestede who has a long term injury but the great maverick Traore is playing and always an interest to watch him. On his day he has any one on beans other times he can't even open the can.

 I think Pulis will get out of him what is needed as he can get him more organised and structured to fit into a football team. I do see Boro as a player for the playoff spots with TP the wherewith knowledge to get them around.

 Looking at their bench some of  those players should really be starting baker, the excellent assombalonga, looking forward to see how Harrison from mls does he's useful and Clayton is solid.
With beside in (another who can play higher level) looks like boro want to match the physical nature of Leeds as he a yellow card magnet like the Leeds midfielder too. With boro the players to bring on so expecting them to win this one and arrive in okay offs.

On Leeds the underwhelming cheap appointment of Heckington probably shows were they are at and I never really get the supposed big club stuff when many clubs including boro have had more success and top level football in last twenty years.

Fair play they have got this match on tonight. Glad don't have to play boro again this season

So far my fivefold on league two bet has become a treble, my Scottish sixfold has become a treble my fivefold on league one has become a single, my championship sixfold has become a treble and only my PL fivefold remains fully intact.

I think only the crunch relegation lambos Stoke match in premier league is at risk tomorrow.
 
If you fancy a nice winner tonight Patrick Bamford to score during the Boro match. He is main striker tonight and scored twice last week and also scores last time they played at home so that's 3 in 2. Great bet to score at least one tonight. Recommended.

Bamford  scoring Anytime 11/5

Traore for the craic would be a fun bet but Bamford to balance out those other bets is what I suggest

Bamford anytime then 11/5 .

 Good luck with acca  teams to morrow. Please out of interest could you put them up here so to follow the bet and join you.

Watching  the boro/Leeds game. Traore May be the fastest player in the history of football but he still can’t make a 3 yard pass to a team mate in acres of space.

Could have really done with leeds turning up but Boro are a long way off us to be a threat, barring a total collapse of our form

I don’t think there is any doubt we will regret letting Traore go, but there again so will BFC

I like the chap, and would have been more than happy to see him stay, but it's pretty hard to argue that we haven't seen the better side of the Adama / Adomah swap.

It's quite possible for both teams to do well out of a swap. Both players have improved since the deal went through. If we get promoted, a huge part of that success will have been the goals Albert scored along the way. There is a good chance that they could still go up because of Traore's abilities, while if they fail to do so, the money they'll make selling him will fund another promotion charge next season.

Traore was shit. If i wanted to see Usian Bolt with a football then i'd get our scouts to hang round the England 100 metre sprinting team. You don't get dumped by Barcelona if you're any good,

I can see them putting the kind of run together that could get them in the play offs and they would be a tough proposition over two legs for any team in this league.

The issue with Traore was never his potential or even his talent. We saw it in flashes. It's just his consistency and desire. Didn't help that he was injured a lot of the time either. He's still very young and if he can turn this into something where he does it more than once every month or so, then he could become something. He's probably better than being stuck at Boro, but then again he has to prove it week in week out if he wants to get to where he wants to go in his career.

And yes, we got a great deal for where we are now and where we want to go in the immediate future with Adomah.

maybe but if we end up in the play-offs we're gonna have to play the best of the rest anyway to win it
