Pre Match Burnley v Leicester City

[Joe_Fox]

Get out.

Get. OUT!

I understand your sentiments Graz, I'm purely doing this as I know that disappointment occurs, and to pay £10 to ease any potential heartache is, in my opinion, a decent move. Here are the scenarios and outcomes. (with my ratings and comments in brackets).

1. No Bet:
a. Leicester fail to get promoted. (0/10 - a truly awful feeling, suicidal for a few months, have to bear another season is the bloody championship playing the likes of Leeds, Watford, Blackpool and Bournemouth)
b. Leicester get promoted. (10/10 - euphoria - the perfect outcome. Champagne, etc. Probably a cheeky one off the wrist to celebrate)

2. With my bet:
a. Leicester get promoted and you have to pay £10. (9.99/10 - a great feeling, with a tiny little loss to take a 0.01% edge off the feeling)
b. Leicester fail to get promoted and you gain £500. (0.5/10 - a horrid feeling but offset by 5% due to the fact that the coffers are looking a bit more healthy)

Now, if you add up the ratings and grade each scenario out of the possible 20 (two possible outcomes for each scenario) you get this:

1. No bet: 10 out of 20
2. With my bet: 10.49 out of 20

Ok, only 0.49 better in the ratings department but still, 0.49 is worth having.

I rest my suitcase.

According to Burnley's version of Bert on their forum, Ings and Trippier definitely out on Saturday. Add to that Marney, this could be a good time to play them.

Though it won't matter if we play like we did last night!

So how many will we lose by Micky?

 

[Kingy_85]

If I bet on Leicester to not get promoted then they will definitely get promoted.

I've never won a bet in my life and If I have it was drowned out by the losses either side.

Maybe I should put it on just to be sure?

All I need to do now is find a pub in Bedford that isn't showing the Man U - Villa game :icon_conf

If there's a sports bar, or something similar to the Walkabout they usually have multiple screens so should both.

Cheers Notts. Trouble is, not knowing the place that well, it could take a while to find one. There are a few Weatherspoons so maybe one of those might provide the answer.

Just had a quick look myself. It's not looking great if honest. :icon_sad:

Just have a quiet word in the landlord's shell like. 'appy days.

 

[SJN-Fox]

Hmmmm, might just have to stay in NP and watch it on my laptop on one of those websites that we don't talk about.

That why he's been poorly ?

I realised once I'd posted it that there would be some idiot that would feel the need to pass comment. Glad to see that I wasn't wrong

Will we still be able to get a feed if it is broadcast in this country?

You'll be able to get a feed, I'm sure there will be loads of links on wiziwig. But you won't be allowed to post a link here.

Or you could do it legally (and get a much better quality stream) by buying a cheap Sky Sports day pass from http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-5...=0&_from=R40&_nkw=sky+sports+day+pass&_sop=15

Or get one free when you buy some crap lager - http://www.carling.com/freenowtv/

I will be catching a train from Edinburgh about 2:15. Anyone know anywhere near the station that might show this?

I now have BT Infinity and BT TV with a YouView box, but not Sky or a Sky box. I will check if they do Sky Sports access for a day or weekend.

You can use the Sky Sports pass on your computer, and on various phones/tablets etc with the Now TV app. Or you can plug a now TV box into your TV, it costs £15 and comes with a one day sports pass. http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/1386039.htm

Just use AceStream then it is SD at worst and quite often a HD link available.

Good news about Trippier though if true as he is the best full-back in the league for me as he can defend but also takes a mean set-piece and pretty handy for the direct free-kicks too!

Definitely need to raise our game from Tuesday but if those Ings, Tripper & Marney are all out, we can't ask for a much better chance really.
