The Bear

Let me guess. All the new heroes will be teenagers or very early twenties, and at least one of them will be non-binary.

Agreed. I read this morning that Tesco have made record profits for the last year, nearly 3 times as much as the previous year. They're just the same as energy companies, using the world conflicts to increase prices and profiteer whilst complaining about rising costs. All at the expense of the customers who are struggling to make ends meet.

And as per, 3 out of the 5 freezes come in. Bloody Banker willy pullers. Does my nut in.

1/4 shots at home that lose 1-2.... 🖕🖕🖕🖕

Agreed. Really poor stuff off some of them. Particularly shot selection wise.

Oof unlucky. They did me the week before too.

My Skybet account has been in profit since 2018! Only a couple of grand but they've left me alone as it was all mug bets and Cheltenham stuff.

Agreed. Been a real pisser tonight as two early teams let me down in my four accas. Then you have to sit and watch as 3 out of 4 big priced teams score first, and I can't do a damn thing about it. Oh well at least I didn't freeze them all first then late teams let me down as that would have wasted 3/5 for the week. Still frustrating seeing that potential £380 from those three sitting there taunting me though. The key to this is definitely picking the 4 short priced teams. Midweek nights are hardest because there's just less games and you have to take a couple of punts ultimately. I call them "Banker willy pullers" now when they inevitably let me down

I'll be having a tickle on these 5: Scheffler Spieth Zalatoris Matsuyama Henley

5 women playing today and tomorrow morning - Mink, Bai Yulu, Reanne Evans, Baipat and Rebecca Kenna. It'd be great to see one of them through to the main draw, but there are some good players qualifying this year. Lisowski, Bingham, Maguire, Vafei, Robertson, Gilbert, Day, Guodong. There's 8 already that really should be good enough to be one of the 16 to make it through. Also looks like Martin Gould has pulled out as he was scheduled to play Jimmy White this morning but Jimmy has been given a walk-over to round 2.

Qualifying starts today Sheffield. They are offering £40k for a 147 at The Crucible this year, on top of the £15k highest break prize. I think we'll see one. There's been plenty of near misses in the tournaments recently.

It's just a place that was setup after a few of them got fed up with a certain public forum back in the day. They made it invite only for the so called "good" posters. It was a bit clicky but now there's just a few people on there, one of whom has a good ITK contact within the club and he can post it safely on there.

We've got Forest away next week. Would be nice to get a win there but they're playing us at the right time when we've got injuries. And they need the points more than we do so will be well up for it on top of the Gibbs-White + Nuno factors.

I've made about £500 in 5 weeks. Though I did top up the account with about £40 when I got short on funds after my first withdrawal. I've still had a few punts on regular accas as well mixed in so I guess £100 a week plus a few mug punts is keeping the account looking not too suspect as of yet. I think I'm gonna up it to £4 from here on in though see how much extra I can make. I'll just do it bit by bit nice and slow, not just start whacking £5-£10 per acca.

Yes as you can see above I had to pick some really short prices to guarantee the wins. I only fancied one or two above 1.3-1.4. Meant the returns weren't quite as big and I had to up it to a massive £4 in some cases!

Her being detained is a nothing story if you read the associated article. It's happened several times before and each time they just release protesters once they've cleared them out of the way. She was completely unconcerned when asked about being arrested "Why should I be?" was the direct quote.

There was a guy on Cats Does Countdown who did one for Rachel Riley.

You can certainly see why based on the letter of the law they gave it offside, but in reality he wasn't blocking his view or any attempt to dive for it. He was never getting there any way. I said to other Wolves fans earlier that there have been just as bad ones over the last couple of seasons, and yours instantly sprang to mine.

I'd like 2 mins for instigating please.

No nothing yet. Just withdrew another £150 from the account to go with the £250 a couple of weeks ago. Still left myself with a hundred to play with so we'll see if they want to put a stop to me.

That'll do pig. Another £65 to come if PSG come back and win.

Took a £40 cashout instead of £100 earlier on 80 mins instead of relying on Leicester to score a winner. I wasn't confident! I only did it knowing I had them keeping alive a couple more accas if they did go on to win. And if they didn't all of them were down, so made sure I got something back just in case. Still have two accas left running tonight. One waiting for a PSG win to payout who've just kicked off (8pm), the other all legs up except for the freeze leg with Clermont, PSG's opponents at 14/1. PSG have made 11 changes for this game too so hopefully a Clermont early goal then Enrique comes to his senses, brings the stars on and they go on to win.

Williams just let his concentration drift and it's now 9-2.

Williams taking Allen apart here. 4-0 up without even breaking sweat.
