There's a naked broadcaster in your window! Recently retired Derby midfielder Robbie Savage looked
set for a career in radio, but it looks like the world of modelling could be calling. The
ex-Leicester City man has turned up in the window of bookmaker William Hill wearing nought but his
rather eye-catching swimshorts.
Arsenal begin their Champions League campaign on tonight against Udinese and despite missing
suspended Robin van Persie, injured Jack Wilshire and Samir Nasri , the bookies still believe it
will be a relatively easy victory for the Gunners.
Unibet, who are offering a no risk first bet promotion to arsenalinsider readers, make Arsene
Wenger's side 1.
Weekend Betting Preview 20th-22nd August
So the first round of Premiership games has gotten underway, unless you are an Everton or Spurs
fans as we took our first glimpse of those teams looking to challenge for the title.
It was business as usual for the Champions with a 2-1 win at West Brom while their Blue
neighbours Manchester City strolled past Swansea City 4-0, thanks to a impressive debut by Sergio
Aguero.

United travel to the Reebok this weekend, and are not surprisingly long odds-on to maintain
their fantastic start to the campaign.
They are a top priced 1.44 with Paddy Power and Stan James to beat a Bolton side that have
leaked six goals in their last two games.
By stark contrast United have bagged 13 goals in three games and with Rooney and Young currently
on fire a comfortable victory looks on the cards.
A German double, some Football League filthiness, and an ode to our broken land Had to take inner
city public transport this week. I don't mean that in an "I'm royalty, I couldn't possible mix with
the unwashed" way, I just don't do it much. In fact, I am the unwashed. There was some school [...]
There are lots of posts about Arsenal transfer rumours, but I always like to have a look at the
betting to get a better idea of which clubs are likely to be buying which players. As it is often
said; Money Talks! So I normally have a look at the latest betting every day, so [...]
With the season over and summer to fill we must turn our heads to the UEFA European Under-21
Football Championship for our daily fix of footy. LTLF's new gambling column by Russell Gous of The
Gambling Times will look at the upcoming games for Stuart Pearce's side and some of the odds on
offer [...]
No domestic football you say? Pah An odd summer often means little to chuck away your cider on, but
with the transfer window hotting up early and some international tournaments of note, we provide
you with some tempters to sink your teeth into. A £100 pot, judge the winnings at tend of August:
10. Guud [.
Where to put your money Over the past few seasons football betting has changed. No longer do
football bettors merely consider results like the home banker, the away win or the draw. Today
there are a vast number of betting markets that used correctly can provide significant returns
regardless of the outcome.
Everyone has to admit it has been a struggle so far this season. Four losses from seven matches in
the league has left Arsenal in fifteenth place, already eight points behind fourth place, and the
bookies are now predicting that Arsenal will finish sixth this season, although the cups still
provide Arsenal with a realistic [.
It's not often that you able to back Manchester United at odds-against to win at home, but you
can this Sunday when they play host to arch rivals City.
United are 2.1 Boylesports and Victor Chandler to bag three points in the Derby clash and
regain the top spot in the league from Mancini's men.
Arsenal's goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny stated in the People yesterday that he would bet on
Arsenal's success in the Premier League this season. The 21-year-old goalkeeper said that he is
confident that Arsenal has a real chance to win the title this season despite the very poor games
they had at the start of 2011/12.
Bolton to win comfortably, Adam Birchall's dream to continue, and a chestful of pearl necklaces
Return to profit last week with fifty pounds back on our outlays, and only Nottingham Forest
costing another forty snoops. This week obviously bets will be focussed on the FA Cup, but with
Third Round day being notoriously difficult in [.
Yesterdays giant killers Crawley Town, of the Blue Square Premier, humbled Championship
side Derby 2-1 at their home ground just outside London. Crawley itself is retentively a new club,
the town was only created after the second World War...anyway, here is a fact.
The FA cup can be important for small clubs: On their run there home gate has doubled to 1,200
and continues to increase while the club has made current total revenue of £273,000.
Dalglish to win the derby, Messi and Ron to score, and so long to our friend Robbie Another £20+
week of profit last time out, making that six weeks out of seven. So read on, dear friends, read
on... Funny old week for football. First of all we had the saga of David Beckham training [...]
Punter Dan back with his latest installment My only prelude to this weeks bets is to say that it is
nearing the end of the month, so to keep me in real ale, whiskey chasers and scampi fries I am
going all out. One of my biggest ballaches in football is the way overweight men [...]
Punter Dan wins you money for free...again Another profit made last week, with £55 return on our
money. Would have been greater if Livingston's game hadn't fallen foul of the weather (and they'd
won), but profit all the same. Back to the glory of the FA Cup this week, juxtaposed with a few
standard bets [.
More lower league punts, foreign predictions, and some Valentine's plans Last week Punter Dan
returned a profit of 23 of your English pounds. More this week, he promises: Another week of footy,
and after the crazy mental eff-up of last weekend's Premier League it was back to Earth with the
bump of international friendly week.
Gattuso, Crouchy and some Valentine's images in our sports betting round-up Football story of the
week was obviously ‘Arry's boys doing one on AC Meeelan. As a hopeless addict and boozer, I have
to admire the behaviour of Rino Gattuso. Sort of acting like some Immanuel (it's philosopher
rhyming slang) in a local boozer who [.
Whilst this won't be the last betting column before the summer (with the Copa America and European
U21 Championships), it is certainly true to say that the amount of football is about to become a
lot more sparse. With that in mind, get your betting teeth into Survival Sunday I feel sick saying
that [.
It's a weekend of finals Seems that the simplest thing to do this weekend if provide four tips, one
for each of the finals in England. First up is the League Two playoff between Torquay and
Stevenage. Torquay only just crept into the playoffs, and then set about comfortably beating
Shrewsbury, who only missed out [.
I like to look at the bookies prices for Arsenal's rumoured transfer targets (?) now and again, and
as I haven't looked at the betting recently I thought it was time for an update, so here we go.
Everyone seems to assume that Wenger is going to sign either Christopher Samba or Gary Cahill, but
[...]
With the season opener Hull v Blackpool commencing Friday evening (KO 19:45) LTLF's gambling column
will look at the bookie's predictions for the season ahead as well as the best odds available for
our upcoming home game against Barnsley [...]
The wait is over Congratulations, my friends, for we have made it. It seemed a long journey at the
end of May but by taking each small step we have achieved our goal. Domestic football is back.

Sponsor doubts Swans can stay afloat Online bookmakers 32Red, shirt sponsors of Premier League
newcomers Swansea City, have suggested they think they are backing the wrong horse this season by
tipping the Swans for relegation. Despite backing the club financially, they will not be backing
Swansea in the betting market having made them 4/6 favourites [.
The only problem facing the gaffer in United's game with Arsenal is which side to put out to
beat the Gunners once again. United have won five of their last six meetings between the two sides
at Old Trafford, and look sure to have too much firepower for the Londoners to handle.
As usual Wayne Rooney will be the first name to go down on the starting 11 sheet, but who will
partner him up front is the big question.
United's young guns have certainly impressed England boss Fabio Capello who has called up Tom
Cleverley, Phil Jones and Chris Smalling into the senior squad for their Euro 2012 qualifier
against Bulgaria (bonus link: video interview with Cleverley and Jones).
They join team mates Wayne Rooney and Ashley Young, who will be keen to carry on their goal
scoring exploits on the international stage in tomorrow night's game (7.
Southampton have started the season in blistering form, certainly continuing their winning streak
from last season. Nigel Adkins has done a terrific job with the saints installing real belief in to
his players - the task which many fans believe McClaren has to do with the current Forest side

Arsenal travel to Germany tomorrow to play the opening Group F Champions League match against
Borussia Dortmund.
If you fancy Arsene Wenger's men, buoyed by the arrival of Mikel Arteta and Per Mertesacker
amongts others, to win the group it may be worth taking Unibet's 11/10 on them
before the two teasm clash – because if the Gunners were to get a win they would sure to
trading odds on.
Arsenal travel Blackburn tomorrow and it promises to be a difficult game, as Rovers have caused
problems for Arsene Wenger's team in the past; in the last six encounters away from North London
Arsenal have failed to win on three occasions.
Robin Van Persie is in decent form and Gervinho will want to get amongst the goals at Ewood
Park.
It's not often you get the chance to back United at 1.85 to win at home, but you can get that
price with Paddy Power and Victor Chandler for them to beat arch rivals Chelsea on Sunday.
That looks a terrific punt especially as they have started the season on fire and have an
excellent record against the Stamford Bridge mob.
Tuesday's Carling Cup tie showed us there's still hope for improvement this season. In particular
we looked a threat going forward and it appears things are starting to click. Nevertheless we're
unable to remove the shoddy defending and conceding a last minute extra-time goal is never great
for morale.
Javier Hernandez is fit to face Stoke at the Britannia this weekend, and that's the last news
that the Potters would have wanted.
Chicarito has scored three goals in two appearances against them and netted in the 27th minutes
in both games.
He was lucky to escape serious injury following Ashley Cole's horror tackle in United's 3-1
defeat of Chelsea, and it was terrific news when the gaffer revealed on Thursday that he was
available for this game.
Arsenal take on Bolton at the Emirates, and despite a 3-1 win by a second XI over Shrewsbury in
the Carling Cup on Tuesday, the Wenger Boys still have plenty of points to prove.
Arsenal are short priced favourites with all bookmakers for their game against Bolton, but once
again Unibet offer you the very biggest odds on the planet!
One game down and five to go in Arsenal's Champions League group campaign this season, and after a
good result in Dortmund two weeks ago the group should really be theirs for the taking. Shouldn't
it? If you look at the online soccer betting, you will that Bwin are offering 16/11 (2.45) for
Arsenal to [.
Tomorrow night we take on Olympiakos in our first home game of this seasons Champions League group
stages, and for those of you who like to have a little flutter here are some of the best early
prices that are available. If you look at the soccer betting for Arsenal to win, both VCBet and
[...]
Robin van Persie will be chasing yet more goals when Arsenal get back into action in the
Champions League against Olympiakos tonight.
And for the third consecutive game Unibet are offering the biggest odds about Arsenal winning a
match 2-0 at 7.25 (27/4)!
This time around Arsenal play the Greeks at the Emirates in what is their second Champions
