Monday Mumbling

Thanks for the recent comments. It’s always good to know there’s someone reading my drivel.

With regard to the Super Bowl yesterday, the Saints won, easily covering the spread as expected, but they won in a way that was not expected. I thought the Saints would start stronger, and that it would be a matter of trying to hold on in a shoot-out against the Colts, but it was the Colts who went ahead early with the Saints coming back. At the start of half-time I reluctantly went red-all-over to a small degree, and then changed my mind! Influenced by the decision to go for the 4th down late in the first half, I decided during half-time that the Saints were where I wanted my money after all, so I again backed the Saints for a profitable outcome that could have been better.

Not that I am complaining though.

Tonight’s League One match between Colchester and Southend is predicted to be a one goal home win.

Plenty of games over the next couple of days, with the strongest winner in the
Premier League expected to be Manchester City at home to Bolton.

Arsenal at 2.22 are the best priced of the expected one goal winners – the others being Fulham, Manchester United, Blackburn Rovers, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur. Draws at Portsmouth, Wigan Athletic and West Ham United.
