Add 4 points to the teams score at full-time and thats your bet

Basically, the team get a 4 points headstart. So if they lose by 3, the +4 handicap means they theoretically win by 1 so your bet wins

If you don't know or understand handicaps then your in the wrong thread. Tyrone currently 9/4 straight with Paddypower, worth a punt for the value!

I got near everything wrong last weekend and it proved to me it's hard to get it up from now on in.

For some reason i think there is value in backing Meath and Down this weekend, as one might get the chance to lay in running for guaranteed profit.

Kerry v Tyrone, is another tough call but i'm going for Kerry in a double with Dublin Minors who were very impressive v Kildare on last outing.


Single bet on Leitrim too.

I see what your saying barrowsider but for the life of me I just can't see dublin out pointing meath if we get the ball, the winning of this game is in midfield all I'm hoping is that we break even, if we do that and get the ball to our forwards we will out point them, but dublin could sneak a goal, just think with g reilly, joe, bray, carroll, forde, if we get good ball we will score more. Now I know a lot of ifs in that but hopefully.

i just think the meath style of play will suit dublin, they will suck it up and catch ye on the counter, i could be wrong hope i am, i'd like to see a good close contest, football needs a real good game, we haven't had one yet

Guaranteed profit on Leitrim v Laois game. Back under 1.5 goals in boylesports at 5/4 and over 1.5 goals in Ladbrokes at 11/10. You cant lose. Im on.

Tipperary and Laois double this week lads. Both teams are 11/5. It is usually tough for a losing finalist to play 6 days later. I am throwing Sligo in to that for a treble but that is more in hope.

Meath, kildare, kerry , down. Think they are stone wall certainty. What odds the accumulator? The can't see any shocks this weekend at all. These teams will all win and I think with a bit in hand too.

Sligo has to be the value bet this weekend but i'm gettin put off going in strong tbh. I really thought Sligo have a real chance but i'm a sucker for getting put off by popular opinion , it seems most people think Kildare will win it with a bit to spare.

Taking a chance anyway with Sligo 7/2. 50 euro on them plus lodge a few quid in the pp account incase i get a chance to cover the bet in running.
