The Open


9.09am.......Boy Wonder is on the tee.


Have avoided backing Rory this time. I'm guessing on McDowell, Harrington, Villegas and Snedeker.....all on betfair.




But massive expectation from an English point of view, Donald and Westwood would be worthy winners and as I am practically English now, I would cheer them to the rafters....

Is this the betting thread?


I've gone for Watney "He's gonna get one one day" this is my 4th bet in a row on him for a major and at 38 means I've still got another 34 Majors for him to get one to make some money :)) Poor day today


and after some reasonably depth reserach on Betfaier golf forum...2 longshot yanks looking to trade - Davis Love (par today) 190 and Chad Cambell -1 today (sooo nearly -2) 470



I've also done Foster at 1000...........


one of those bets is a lie but James Lawton did tip him as an eaxchway bet in Today's Indie....I hope he had a piece.

Just traded a bit of Campbell at 40s, enough so I'm in profit on all bets and still in for a big win if he wins...letting Davis Love ride as he was only 150 so less room to trade but all my bets are totall freerolls now, still with big potential pay outs...will trade Love if he's still near the top tomorrow night, but a few quid to the good whatever.



...you still doing the lottery Mick?

Rory is about the only player I have not backed. Think the list is now 10, but most missed the cut so have now got Bjorn Campbell and Clarke. Clarke would only cover my losses.


Campbell and Clarke added at half way stage, but Campbell dropped today. He might fire tomorrow, who knows.


Ones I wished I had backed are Johnson and Fowler, they may be big threats tomorrow.


I fear for Clarke, as I backed him to win a major for years only for the pressure to get the better of him any time he was in with a shout - but hes older and wiser now and may be he has a new perspective on life and may get through to the end. I would love to see it.


I wonder if Rickie Fowler will look good value this time tomorrw as he is currently 7-1 ?


Now I have typed it I have to have some of that - dont I ?


PS

ok I have done Rickyyyyyyy now as well at 8.8 on betfair.


Surely I can't lose......


PS - I was at the open yesterday and I have to say, like most other sport, its better on TV. Only horseracing is better to actually attend.

As long as he doesn't wear that white clobber again I don't care...

I agree Mick, I went to the 2001 Open at Carnoustie when Van de Velde famously went into the water, could hardly see a thing with all the crowds, and only realised how dramatic the hole was when watching it on TV later. Still, it was worth it to see Mrs Doubtfire lose his rag while teeing off because someone rustled a Kit Kat wrapper. :)

Yes, along with 'You're the man!'...although I'm really disappointed no one shouted ''RICKAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!''

    • Hate people who let off loud fireworks.  We had neighbours two doors down who used to let off the extremely loud fireworks in their back garden.   This was usually, but not always, on the days around Guy Fawkes and New Year’s.  It was torture.  I felt as if I was in the middle of them and it seemed as if they were directly outside our windows. I often involuntarily screamed as they were so loud and startling.  The dog was petrified and I was worried they would crash into the house or garden. Thankfully they’ve moved and taken their firework obsession with them.  I know someone whose dog collapsed and died during a bout of neighbourly fireworks.  Many dogs and cats go missing during firework season due to trying to escape from them.
    • Hi, We are looking at a property on Croxted Road near the Turney Road across the Garden Centre). I wanted to get people's sense on: 1. Road and train-line noise (house is on side sandwiched between street and the rail line) 2. Secondary schooling - lots of good state primaries, but I don't think there is a catchment for a good secondary The proximity to Herne Hilla and Dulwich Villages is nice as are properties on that street, but bit concerned about the above especially given required mortgage levels we might not be able to do private secondary. Thanks
    • It is supported housing run by RNIB, None of the residents support the new build as some of them would be made homeless with no guarantee of being rehoused in suitable accommodation. The rebuild will be the destruction of a communal lounge and grounds. There is an oak tree in the grounds which is several hundred of years old and has a tree preservation order. My husband's family used to live at this address and the grounds were gifted to the RNIB by his great aunt (Doctor Grace Batten) on the grounds that the tree is never cut down.
    • I think you will find that the majority of venues will not be open after midnight as in predominantly residential areas. Southwark have a list of venues to hire - you may find something that is open until 1 am. My granddaughter usually goes up town if wants a venue open until 2/3 pm
