| No club has taken their fans on such a rollercoaster ride as Manchester City. Relegated twice in three years followed by successive promotions and more relegation. The likes of Keegan, Sven, Shinawatra and Sheikhs all gracing the club with their presence. But right now City are a money train to anyone who buys Total Goal Minutes in their games. See the one who bought £10 at 151 against Wolves and followed it with another £10 buy at 161 against Leicester in the Cup. With a defence that would make toilet paper look watertight, City have to stretch their attacking prowess to the limit and after going a goal down against Wolves they hit back with four of the best trousers down only for Micky Mac's men to help themselves to two consolation goals. While despite a Tevez second half missed spot kick, City once again bagged four against a spirited Leicester side who still mustered a brace for themselves. Massive make-ups of 375 and 282 respectively has ensured that the punter is now £3,450 to the good. |

| Just the seven One Day Internationals to get through after a five Test match series and a couple of T20s, wow these cricketers certainly do earn their money! Speaking of which, there was a punter on Sunday who didn't earn any money, in fact he lost a few pounds getting against that most intriguing of creatures, the Shane Watson. Famous for failing to build on his good starts one client sold his runs quote in the first Leo Sayer at 39 for £40. The big blond Aussie - that all the England players (reportedly) dislike the most - set about trying to knock off the highest One Day run chase the 'G' has ever seen. Nursing tiredness, cramp and a mind elsewhere, the Queenslander was most annoying as a brilliant display of ball-striking saw him smash 12 fours and four sixes under the lights in cricket's biggest arena. He survived four partners and 150 deliveries before hitting the winning runs to finish on a huge 161 not out and condemn our man to a painful £4,880 loss. |
