Beer Fund Raising : 29 - 30 Mar 2008

I recently started a mini slump in prediction form but I hope to be able to stem the rot today. With ECL fixtures looming in the horizon and major clubs committing players to international duty during the past mid-week, I will be taking a slightly more conservative approach.

Perhaps, it was my over-confidence that I started taking risk of 1.5-ball handicaps and above. Granted I did win a couple but the overall is a nett loss on these punts.

Fortunately, as if in sync with the bookies, this week's handicaps all looked pretty friendly? Time for the bookies to give me some of my money back. Dammit!

Just when we thought it is all gone case for Sunderland, the Black Cats proved us wrong with a shocking win over Aston Villa.

Buoyed by this new found confidence, bookies are favouring Sunderland today to beat West Ham. Perhaps Sunderland's first ever back-to-back victory?

With the last win, Sunderland is back on track towards the 1-point-per-game ratio at 30 points in 31 games.

If Sunderland does pull yet another victory, it would take them further up to 33 points which means a mere 7 points to go to survive the drop with 5 games to play.
