Mintys Football Betting Tips - Week 24: 2008/9

You are here: Football England > Football Betting Tips > Week 24: 2008-9 Season

I've just about had it with this lark!
Picking tips in the style of women I might want to shag is doing me no good at all. I'm getting all excited for nothing.

I need to get some decent wins under my belt, and at a time like this, there's only one thing for it.
Back to the ouija board.

Surely a dead person is better qualified than a woman when it comes to picking decent football bets?

So I've been on the board, and luckily enough for me I've contacted just the dead person we need.
Who better to investigate than Sherlock Holmes?

I know we've had him before, but surely he's in the know?
After all, his son's the physio at Everton.

Bet 1 : The Voice of Terror
3 Homes - £3 Treble
Torquay vs Coventry - Torquay @3/1
Watford vs Crystal Palace - Watford @13/8
Wolves vs Middlesbrough - Wolves @11/8

Holmes: "It's quite simple really.
I deduced that if you take all the letters from the home teams names, then you substitute M's for the Q's, change the Y for a B and the D for an N, you then have an anagram of Michael Bolton. Nearly.
Bolton does have a terrible voice."
Watson: "I see."

Bet 2 : A Study in Scarlet
3 Aways - £3 Treble
Hull vs Millwall - Millwall @5/1
Bournemouth vs Wycombe - Wycombe @6/5
Grimsby vs Rotherham - Rotherham @8/5

Watson: "I don't understand Holmes, how did you wonder that this was a study in scarlet?".

Holmes: "Simplicity Itself, dear chum. The home teams in these battles will be suitably embarrassed. Enough to give them a rosy hue around the cheeks. And, the man with a limp had some mud on his shoe."

Bet 3 : Another Study in Scarlet
5 Correct Scores - £0.10 Lucky 31 Treble
Hartlepool vs West Ham - West Ham 4 - 2 @50/1
Chelsea vs Ipswich - Chelsea 4 - 2 @66/1
Accrington Stanley vs Barnet - Accrington Stanley 3 - 1 @14/1
Chesterfield vs Morecambe - Chesterfield 4 - 1 @33/1
Notts County vs Port Vale - Notts County 4 - 2 @50/1

Holmes: " There is an ill wind of change blowing across this land Watson. I fear that none of us will be the same from this day forward."

Shabang.
Mint.
