[:''(][:''(][:''(] [/quote] Such hard luck "Lapp" the one away done us , I am taking it Olympiakos will win , As Nutty has said ."Its the hardest result to call "If you look back to our season in the Prem , we were always going to be near the foot of the league ,what happened when Man Utd came ? How many bets did that spoil ? Home advantage means so much .Having said all this 7rew doesn''t have too much trouble up in Scotland , Well done again Drew .I do feel the form has settled down so we are going to be there , or mighty close each week , Its just a case of missing the banana skin .Well done "Lapp" we will talk about it when we have that drink together this fri , oh by the way if any of you pickers or indeed any of you posters want to join arrdee and "Lapp"in a drink in the City let me know .I know that another Poster with thousands of posts behind his name is desperate to meet me and "Lappin" and he will be there .

Sorry everyone, Aldershot were indeed my banker this week - I read the fixture the wrong way round. Should have been away win. I think it would have been too, if it wasn''t for Aldershot being reduced to 10 men after half an hour.It really hurts when its your result that lets everyone down - I''ll be trying doubley hard to win on my picking week now.Leeds Canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lappinitup 629 Posted December 30, 2007 Please don''t blame yourself LC, I should have checked the fixtures before making the selections. We all make mistakes and at the end of the day if Aldershot had won we would have been home with better odds than if they had have played at home. We were very unlucky but we all gave it a good go.

YankeeCanary 0 Posted December 30, 2007 I realize as I write this I will possibly annoy a few people who are, admittedly, having a little fun but I think we are simply being "too nice" guys. If we want to put a few more victories on the board this season then we need to do better. We have to be more careful and more thorough in how each of us make selections in the first instance. Being more thorough means looking farther afield in all leagues, it means reviewing teams who may have key players missing in the upcoming game, which team may have a lot riding on a particular game, where is a poor run of form being experienced in the past two or three games not simply based upon the results but on the performances in those results. Once individual selections have been made it is then the responsibility of the weekly selector to go over everything with the same due diligence before making the final selections. If you think this is overkill on my part you may very well be correct, however, my point is that the odds of calling six games correctly will always be against us even if WE DO EVERYTHING RIGHT. I made a mistake last week in going away from that kind of due diligence and it cost us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
