TLS - I have just backed Barca to win @ 2.35 with 30 mins to go.


General - I quite like Chelsea under Hiddink - definately good to watch but I'd like to have an international flavour to the final - 2 English teams in the final is not what the Champions League is about. Although it does reflect English superiority, I don't think its a good spectacle for the neutral.


Eto has just made an excellent save to foil Eto - good game now with barca building the pressure - if Anelka comes on though, I would be concerned about him, he is excellent on the break.

Even more annoying - I had ?144 on my betfair account and bet ?44 on barca in running - the bet was not matched so I (thought I cancelled it) and did it again and it seems I did 2 x ?44 bets. Thats the second time I have doubled up by mistake on betfair and lost, a bit annoying. Thats the trouble with trying to watch football, have a beer, bet, write on the forum and try to buy a patio power washer online, all at the same time.

Never mind Mick it could've been worse, you could've ended up with two patio power washers...

0-0 isn't that great a result, Chelski will probably still have to win at the Bridge to go through, and with Chelski having to press forward more, Barca will be more effective hitting them on the break...

I don't hate Chelsea as a club, as they really are a bit of an irrelevance. It's their players I don't like.

I made a ?59 Profit on the Game Mick but made a sily "schoolboy error"...


I did "First Goal Odds" and all the Second-Half Blocks of 10 Minutes Won me money.


I forgot that "No Goals" was a loser!--I'm thinking in the second-half that I was guaranteed a Profit on this market. Wrong!


btw: Saw your other post M8---NEVER drink and Gamble!!!!:)-D

I wouldn't quite say they parked the bus. They defended very well and had to as Henry, Eto'o and Messi have scored 90 goals between them this season. Cech had a blinder in goal and John Terry was like a rock throughout. I thought they got the tactics spot on but I can still see them losing at home as I'm not convinced by their home form.
I think the eventual winner will come from the Barca Chelsea match based on what we have seen so far. No offence to Arsenal but I can't see them getting past MU and I think MU will not win the final as they are running a bit low on gas after a long season. But I'd like to see a Barca MU final.

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
