By popular demand - The Mint is back!
Mintolius has been reinstalled as our resident tipster, due to a wave of public opinion that we could not ignore.
It seems that although he hardly ever picks any winners - you like his style.

So for the forseeable future - Minty gets his tenner a week to thrill you all with his predictions.
May God help you all.

Hello boys & girls.
I'm back again with more losers.
I say losers, because to be fair, at the end of the day, early doors and all that... I've not had a winner yet this season.
Now this may not be a surprise top many of you, but it is to me. I normally manage to pick up the odd 4-2 correct score here and there, but this season, nowt.

I've decided to let my teddy bear pick them today.

28 Nov 2009

Well, F@#* my hat.
I'm getting a bit chuffed off with picking losers. No winners again last week, and to be honest I'm getting more than a bit chuffed off with these dead celebrity mushes who keep giving me duff information.

A bit like Percy Piranhafish really, who last week informed me that Darren wazzocking Anderton was better than Matt le Tissier.

He had been drinking, but I didn't realise how much he'd had.

This week I'm picking them on my own.

21 Nov 2009

Another week off again last week, as the Mint succombed to the swine flu.
At least that saved us all a tenner.
Anyhoo, I'm back and raring to go this week, but I'm off the idea of picking them with the help of dead celebrities, as that's not been much use recently.

This week, Matthew, I'll be picking them in the style of a woman who you're not sure if you'd like to shag or shoot.
I know a few of you like this styleeee.

Yeah.

7 Nov 2009

No winners again last week.
Desperate times need desperate measures, so I've asked me old chum, Sherlock Holmes to investigate.
I'm sure the bumbling Dr Watson will also be along for the ride...

What do we have in store for us in "The Case of the dwindling Ladbrokes balance"?

Lets see...

Watson "I say Holmes,those look like splendid predictions. How did you work them out?"

Holmes "Good old Watson. The one fixed point in a changing age.
But there's an East wind coming all the same. Such a wind as never blew on England yet. It will be cold and bitter, Watson, and a good many of us may wither before its blast.
But it's God's own wind none the less. And a greener, better, stronger land will be in the sunshine when the wind is cleared."

Watson "A wind induced by last nights Chicken Samber, nontheless."

Watson "Indeed."

Oi. Oi.

1 Nov 2009

Last time out, the old Mint was led astray by predictions from beyond the grave by Ian Curtis. No winners I'm afraid.

Today, I've decided that a female touch is required, and it may give us all the boost we need to get back to winning ways.

Obviously, I won't be trusting a real woman with this task, but a dead woman film star has surely got to be worth a pop.

This week, courtesy of the ouija board is Ingrid Bergman. Not bad eh!

Bet 1

17 Oct 2009

Another fruitless week for the Mint again last week - And I don't mean I had steak for my tea every day (which I did incidentally).

Batman was particularly bobbins last week in attempting to help with my bets, but I'm not going to fully ostracise him just yet, as he may have Wonderwoman's phone number.

I am however, back on the ouija board this week:
I've also been back through my old records (not my LP's, but my records of past betting success), and found that the dead popstars tend to produce the best results.
Jimi Hendrix is still way out in the lead as best dead guest bet guesser with more than £300 profit to his name.

So, Giving me the benefit of their experience in picking the winners is
Ian Curtis.

10 Oct 2009

Well, I had a week off last week, which has undoubtably saved the Football england board another tenner, but I'm back this week, and I'm picking them in the style of Batman.

I know that's a little departure from my usual tactic of using the ouija board to seek help from dead celebrities beyond the grave, but those of you in the know will remind the uninitiated that Batman is actually dead.

I can feel it in my water, I'm on a roll.
Batten down the hatches, weigh the anchor, blow your trumpet and get aboard the Mints tips this week.

4 cheeky bets last week all down the pan.

I am not disheartened though, and I've been feverishly rubbing my Ouija this week to contact the spiritworld, for some help from a dead celebrity tipster.

This weeks lucky stiff is Willie Rushton.

Hello, Hello - It's good to be back!
Good old Mint back in the driving seat again.
I did take that pillock Seth around the back and give him a good shoeing for you as well. Daft Northern tit.

Anyway, I'm back - I've got my Ouija board, and I'm ready to bring the house down, possibly with the help of a famous dead celebrity.

The pshychic waves are full of only one dead celeb this week - the signal is very strong, very strng indeed.
No place for the faint hearted this week. or the kiddies.
