The first of the eagerly awaited meetings between out two top teams resulted in a 1-0 success for Swansea City in the Carling Cup. We now have Swansea at 125/1 to lift the cup.

This weekend Cardiff entertain high-flying Birmingham at Ninian Park and Swansea travel to meet Reading….both looking difficult tasks. Prices are available for both games.

Home fixtures in the Magners League for the Blues, Dragons and Ospreys while the Scarlets travel to play Glasgow.

We are all looking forward to Tuesday night when Swansea entertain Cardiff in the Carling Cup at the Liberty Stadium. However, we have Championship fixtures this weekend when Swansea entertain Burnley and Cardiff travel to Derby.

Our rugby teams have Magners League fixtures ……prices are available.

Specials for this week are;

11/8    Swansea to keep a clean sheet against Burnley.

3/1     Jay Bothroyd to score at anytime for Cardiff against Derby.

Another interesting week-end of sport to look forward to and hopefully some good results to make up for the unlucky defeat for Wales in Russia.

Cardiff entertain Bristol City and we can expect an exciting afternoon at Ninian Park!

Swansea travel to meet Crystal Palace and we should be able to see if the ‘Swans’ can compete with one of the better teams in the division.

Specials for this week are;

5/2   Swansea to beat Crystal Palace

16/1 Pratley to score the first goal in the Palace/Swansea match.

5/2  Cardiff to be winning at half-time and at full time.

Wales left it very late to grab the points in the first of the World Cup qualifiers against Azerbaijan.

 Sam Vokes scored a scrappy goal after Jason Koumas, probably Wales’ best player, missed with a poor attempt from the penalty spot. After the bad luck we have had in qualifiers in the past it is about time that we managed a win even though the performance was not great.

We will need to improve a lot to get anything from Wednesday’s trip to Russia…..7/1 Wales if you are feeling lucky!!

Here we go again…..another chance for our teams to qualify for the World Cup. Wales have a very difficult group so it is essential that they get a good start against Azerbaijan. England appear to have an easy start at Andorra but Scotland, N Ireland and the Rep. of Ireland all face more difficult games.  Good luck to all of our teams!!

A weekend of doing battle against the city of Sheffield resulted in a point for each of our Welsh teams. Swansea battered Wednesday but couldn’t get a second goal to finish them off after Bodde had put the Swans in front. Cardiff gained a battling point with a 0-0 result at United. Latest prices to gain promotion to the Premiership;

Cardiff            6/1

Swans           10/1
