Today's Sport.

It's difficult to get going after watching England humilated by part-timers "The Netherlands" in the 2020 World Cup.

It is always rubbish when the home nation dissapoints. Doubly so when it is England. It will take a lot of interest away domestically, and will have a negative impact on the betting markets. England have a hard job qualifying. The weather forecast is bad for Sunday, so the game against Pakistan may not even go ahead. We shall see.



Todays Sport.

Thursday 4 June - Mug's Punt

I really have a "good feeling" about this one tonight:

WILLOW DANCER - 7.50 Sandown.

It will be carrying my lump of dosh, which should not overburden it too much. £5 to win!!! That's my top stake.

Betting on political 'dead certs'

Despite the late arrival of the J2E Blog of the Day, we're still here, everyone's zonked out with the 3 day heatwave (that's quite enough of the weather, thank you - Ed).



A baker's dozen signed up for our social media event in the City on Friday; did we offer this to our valued members on the Sports Exchange, maybe not, look out for the next one in a week or two.



Politically, J2E's rant at MPs has resulted in Gordo Bruun teetering on the edge of the political Beachy Head.… Continue

A bloggaday keeps the doctoraway

Where's our hero's offering for today,Tues 2nd June, we cry? John - your public clamours for your guidance. Your correspondent hears that J2E is 'under the doctor' but fighting back. I can offer no sporting advice, but have a look at our sister blog at http://john2e.typepad.com/my_weblog.



This will give you an impassioned view of The Gambler's personal approach to abuse and dissembling in public life. What a bunch of diddlers and… Continue

Welcome Mario.

Mario is officially our member number 50. Welcome. The more the merrier.



Now we can do better. We have hit 50. The next target is 100. If everyone can get at least one of their friends to join, then we will hit 100. At that poimt the "site" will take care of itself. The chat room will be busy at some points during the week. Members will initiate discussions, post mini-blogs, add events, post comments, and we should get some lively discussions going, and who knows the odd… Continue

Sunday Morning Blog.

More sport on TV from 10am. French Open Tennis and Rugby Sevens.



European Golf on from 1.30pm on Sky.



Jeev Meeka Singh is best price 7/4 and Rory McIlroy is 9/2. I would expect the winner to come from one of thes two. Over in the US Tim Clark is leading by two. I thought Vijay might have got a bit closer, and would not be surprised if he has a bit of a go today. Tiger is back next week, and the US Open, which is on Sky is fast approaching. The other US tournaments are on… Continue

This Mornings Blog.

Yesterdays sport was a bit dull. Serena Williams got beat. Murray won. Lancashire beat Yorkshire in a very low scoring 2020 match. Today more of the same, plus British Lions first tour match, and the FA Cup Final. Chelsea to win 2-1. Anelka to score the first goal. Lampard the second. Cahill the consoation goal if he is playing. I fancy Jeev Meeka Singh to win the Golf. Check out the best prices on the exchanges or oddschecker.com.



Back at 7.30am. Check out my other site.… Continue

50 not out and running well

The Exchange (or whatever its called today) has reached 50 members and activity on our Google Analytics 'spy-in-the-cab' shows three times that in daily visits, signalling many potential new members. As well as long, lingering visits to popular blogs; and an unsatisfied hunger for some 'authoritative' discussion stuff on the lines of John 2E's brilliant exposition of Cricket Trading.



Offers to party from international betting sites, as well as the odd local one. So we're grabbing… Continue

United or Barcalona.

Who will win tonight's "Big Match"

The whole world will be watching.

I think United will pick up the trophy.

0-0 at half-time.

2-0 at full-time,

Who do you think will win/lose or draw?

Vote now,

Comments/discussion welcome.

Where are the best prices?

Where is the value?

Is it one to trade in-running, or is it one to sit back and enjoy?

What is YOUR strategy?
