BETS OF THE WEEK We’VE had the Goalrush now we have the all-new Winrush. It’s a simple bet – you pick both teams to score and then predict the outcome of that particular game and one Glen Road demonstrated how it’s done on Saturday. He placed a £30 treble and he took SWANSEA (14/5 for both teams to score and Swansea to win) and they thumped QPR 4-1. BOLTON (16/5) trailed 1-0 to Burnley but two quick second-half goals won the match for the Championsip strugglers to gave our punter a massive sweat. He was was waiting on STOKE ((16/5) to win and they were 2-0 up; now all he needed was a late goal from Reading and it duly arrived to secure our punter a £2,010.80 pay-day. I love these bets when punters put on small stakes and then take the bookie for a few quid and Manuel McEvoy from local business McEvoy Core Drilling (free plug there) scooped £480 with a £4.50 bet. He placed a Lucky 15 on Saturday and his first three horses all quickly won: DREAM ALONG BOYS (7/1), MY TENT OR YOURS (5/1) and TRIPLE DREAM (7/1) by a short head. The sweat was on. Our man Manuel had a long wait for the last race at Wolverhampton (9.20) and his selection ONE SCOOP OR TWO (11/4) got up in the shadow of the post to secure that £480 pay-day for Manuel for less than a fiver – a great bit of clever punting.
