No, this is not Paqueta ... Its me :o)

Aussies are mad on betting and I'm getting into the flow albeit with very small bets but with interesting odds.

On Sunday the extreme optimist in me thinks we can win, yes I know its ridiculous and its the hope that kills you. The odds are very long and you just dont know! Well, my Dad, god rest his soul would say its mugs game, just go into the bookies, 3 windows to place a bet and one to pay out! He also pointed out the bookies car, it was a Jag and his Mrs had a mink coat, this was the 60's!

So, I also think looking at our defence and City's scoring form they could hit us for at least 7.

Moral conundrum... Do I place a bet on City winning 7-1? I still think Bowen will score :o)

kind regards, Tormented of Dartford

Dartford my man,this is West Ham,you never can tell,i have Spurs mates,and they reckon we will beat City just to piss them off with the Arse getting the title.

When their current manager (Moyes) says and I QUOTE " We've got no chance against Citeh " Makes me really glad that this is his last game for WHU, so negative- just in case the Moyes IN brigade had any doubts.

Must say Dartford. I've done it a few times just to add a bit extra to my Acca. For example at Liverpool. I've already submitted my Super 6 score for Sunday. City to win 5-0! If I'm perfectly honest I think the title will be wrapped up after 15 minutes.
But West Ham have done stranger things. What price a 1-0 West Ham win or a 1-1 draw?

I dont feel quite so bad now Enfield betting against our beloved Irons, hopefully for the last time.

According to Skey Bet, 0-1 gives you 66/1 and 1-1 is 18/1!

I'm with you Dartford, at least 7 for Man City. They'll want to win in style and when you're coming up against the team 4th worst in form why not? As for betting, defo a mugs game and despite the odds stacked in your favour for this one I could never bet against the club that's broken my heart more times than I can count!!

i think Chavski took the foot off the pedal and could have got 7 very easily and they are still light years away from City

I reckon drop the bus driver a score to take the wrong motorway ,the M 4 is the best bet ( very few exits) ,before we realise our mistake we'll end up in Cardiff, have a few pints with Welsh branch of the west ham supporters club ,get some 6 packs for the journey back to the smoke and we're laughing,
At the F A inquiry as to why we didn't turn up for the match we can blame satnav .Save a lot of time and energy.

And against my club. And I've made far more money on West Ham losing. Lets face it, I bet to win money which doesn't mean gambling with hope in your heart. I do however have a cheeky couple of quid on a West Ham/ Everton double @ 315/1. Hopefully both teams may get an early goal and I might cash in.

is to bet on both teams scoring reckon Bowen Kudos or Antonio should be able to conjure up 1 goal between them the only trouble is that Citeh will get 5or6 but the odds for the acca should be better

i know it won't happen but what if pacman could score a goal that costs them the title, maybe they'll loose interest .
