And let's hope it is still the same at 5.05 pm. 

I think we were still playing at Stoke at 5.05pm.

I'd be astonished if we got any thing out of this game but , its away, its Christmas and we are very unpredictable.

Always hope wth this side.

We have a Blackburn fan in Antoine Griezmann.

Even though Martin is a vastly overrated managed, I see nothing but a loss for us on Saturday given the quality of player they have and our threadbare squad with many running on fumes.

To mitigate the almost inevitable disappointment of losing, I'd stock your Christmas war chests with a double on Saints win and Adam Armstrong to score anytime.

4-1 to Southampton.

 

 

7/4 is the odds for your bet..hardly going to help Christmas war chests is it? 

Rovers to win 2 nil with Szmodics and Leonard scoring(22/1)

Think I'd change your bookie - got Southampton and Adam Armstrong anytime at 15/8.

As for helping the Christmas 'war chest', depends how much you put on!  My winnings will be well into 3 figures.

Your bet at 22/1 would be great if you won but the comparative odds reflect the likelihood of the two predicted outcomes.  

Let's take a rain check post match.

Woah. Barely much is it. 🙄

Boasting before you win never works. Several times you do it and it bites you back every time. 

You are putting at least 50 pounds to treble you money if you win to win £143.75.

Mercer, your wind ups don't work just like your predictions don't ever happened. Maybe give up with them

Barely much!?  The difference in odds between 15/8 and 7/4 is £1 extra in winnings for every £8 wagered (extra 7% winnings).

Do you understand betting odds?  To treble your money, you would need to back at 3/1 ie every £1 stake would give you winnings of £3.  If I bet £50 on the outcome, my winnings would be £93.75, less than the 3 figures' winnings I said.  I'll leave that one with you.

Like I said barely much. It's £8. Hardly ground breaking. Its £8 is alot to you fair enough.

Yes I fully understand betting, how odds work, etc.

Your totally winnings would be £143.75 including your stake. 

Yes I enjoyed a good bet each but I don't need to boast that I won or earn with each win or loss.

Again, you don't understand.

I said the difference in odds between 15/8 and 7/4 is £1 extra in winnings for every £8 wagered (extra 7% winnings), therefore, if you wager £100 and your bet wins then that's an extra £12.50 - only a fool would turn down the opportunity of winning more.

You are now twisting your argument by including stake money in winnings.  Winnings are winnings are winnings.  If I go to the races with £200 in my wallet and stake all £200 and come away with £500, my winnings are £300 as I already had £200 in my wallet!  It's not rocket science.

You also get your stake back as part of your winnings. So that's my point. Might have been better saying profit of my betting day

Yet again I'm not bothered about what you win or not. It's the Boasting again if you do win like you will do if your bet comes in that's annoys me. Also who backs again their own team 🤔

Because value is value, I’d back the opposition to beat us if it was a good price, that’s the entire point. Doesn’t mean I wouldn’t be ripping the betting slip up with delight if we actually won the game.

[ruggles1995]

my first game since the chelsea game. So buzzing for this! been a while. My gut feeling is it will be a christmas cracker, 2 good footballing sides. Think 3-2, or 3-1, to southampton. Think we will just come up short. Can bet your mortgage armstrong scores. 

But I wouldnt be shocked if we got a win. 

[martonrover]

Can we have a Chaddy and Mercer podcast, please? I’d definitely subscribe.

Greizmann is not at all interested in the Rovers, he has just taken the club in an internet game, that is all.

I have an inkling that there could be a Christmas party in the offing and all the players will be travelling to Southampton 😁😉

1300 Rovers fans will be supporting our club at Southampton tomorrow. When you consider the cost and time to get there, the adult ticket price of £30 and Christmas around the corner I think it's terrific.

 

[Mattyblue]

The away support over the past few seasons is consistently the best it’s been probably since the 90s.
