to add on, few upsets. things like H-A or A-H... :P
DERBY vs BLACKBURN
1-2 (1-2)
MAN CITY vs LIVERPOOL
0-0
home record still intact after city survived a Liverpool 2nd-half onslaught.
BIRMINGHAM vs FULHAM
1-1 (0-1)
no. of ah pek thot birmingham wld give the cottagers another hammering but under the eye of new manager Roy Hodgson. fulham have something to prove.
CHELSEA vs NEWCASTLE
2-1 (1-0)
its pretty obvious this is a eat ball game. but odds opened at 1.63 and keeps dropping.... so i gave up betting. Ashley Cole lost the appeal for his red card against Aston Villa. he did not featured in this game. together with Carvalho. Terry, Lampard injured. Essien, Drogba, Kalou on African Nations Cup duty. Manager Avram Grant needs enforcements and fast.
EVERTON vs ARSENAL
1-4 (1-0)
few would have thot the gunners wld have it easy at Goodison Park. Arsenal beginning to work quietly. H-A for this game and quite unexpectedly.
PORTSMOUTH vs MIDDLESBROUGH
0-1 (0-1)
expected... :D
SUNDERLAND vs BOLTON
3-1 (2-1)
unexpected. sunderland give -1.5 at $5.20.
TOTTENHAM vs READING
6-4 (1-1)
for spurs, whenever they win or win big.. they sure let their opponents to score at least one. this game widely unexpected... total goals 9+ and AOS for pick-the-score. big $$ man but who wld have thought. lol.. lets recap when Reading was away to Portsmouth if im not wrong. 7-4?
WIGAN vs ASTON VILLA
1-2 (1-0)
villa awarded for their efforts in the thrilling 4-4 with Chelsea in the last round. H-A again. big $$.
WEST HAM vs MAN UNITED
2-1 (0-1)
watching this game at 848 with scores of United fans ard me. not surprise when United took the lead from man at the moment, C. Ronaldo. but missed a penalty in the 2nd-half, West Ham took advantage and clinched it from 2 centre-backs. not forwards ok? Anton Ferdinand & Matthew Upson. A-H at $50.
i missed out on betting bcos on last weekend of last 2 yrs. i lose BIG... so i stayed away this time round and true enough... couple of shocks and upsets... when its so sure the team will stay up, ur betting slip got burn instead. :P
already 102nd posts now, Pete & I wld truly appreciate if there's more visitors wld drop by and shout at us at the shoutbox provided here. i hope for more zun zun predictions and beat those tipsters at New Paper. lol... :)
HAVE A BLESSED AND MORE FORTUNE 2008 guys.

Another highlighted game was Spurs vs Reading. Spurs scored 5 the last time, this time they scored 6..
Sg pool big winner.
Another high scoring week, many dramas..
Was telling Bern about strange odds offered by sg pool for Reading and Newcastle. Reading odds dropped to 8 plus from 9 plus within 2 hours after late opening odds by sg pool. Same as Newcastle, open at $10, to 8.80, then 5.75 before closing.. Heavy betting on these 2 teams by punters?? Or is it sg pool playing with the odds to create impression that these 2 teams are really heavy betting. Only they know the answer...
Mu threw the game away.. Look at the way Ronaldo take the penalty and all his previous attempts, this time, he powered, rather than placement. Also his eyes were "Glued" to the ball till the ball hit the advertisement board.
December 28, 2007
My pick for Boxing Day's match of the day.
8 GOALS, 3 SENDING OFFS, 2 FLOPS SCORING, 0 WINNER..
What can we ask for??
December 27, 2007
Arsenal no firepower, MAN CITY - B'BURN preview
POST-MATCH MORTEM. BERN, not that Mac fella reporting from LONDON,
wah biang eh.. 4-4... simi score-line... no one ok.. no BLOODY PERSON could have predicted such a score. but don't forget up til last nite game at Stamford Bridge. there's a 4-4 scoreline.. and involving Aston Villa as well. again as the away side in that thrilling DRAW with tottenham.
no we know football is not over til ITS OVER. Michael Ballack and that 30m pounding flop flop flop dun know wat came over them... contributed to 4 of Chelsea goals. the former thought;
ho seh liao... villa gone!
clock reads 88th min. but kudos to Villa. bcos they keep playing the Hokkien song; "keep fucking then can win" in their dressing rm many many times. Gareth Barry, the villians skipper is so cool that if i gal hor.. wld run up to kiss him before he take the penalty... wat a cool finish.....
i tell you people, that knn bull-doggy sulky face named Grant. after last nite... (with already Terry out til Feb. Cech, think he was eatin peanut butter when Maloney scored Villa 2nd goal. looked off-form. Drogba injured. now Carvalho and "lui-bin" Cole kena red card. Essien, Kalou leaving for African Cup in Jan.) think his head will become bigger liao. hahahaaa....
Portsmouth last 3 league games at home. twice 0-0, and lost 0-1 to Spurs. so no surprise last nite game ended goalless.... :)
Red Devils, w/o players like Anderson, Giggs, Tevez... makes it look so easy as they brush aside a tame Sunderland side at stadium of light. Ronaldo scoring from a free-kick, his 17th of the campaign. The United team, not looking tired but stronger thru-out the festive period.
TONIGHT:
Manchester City midfielder Michael Johnson is a major doubt after suffering an abdominal complaint.
Emile Mpenza has a minor muscle strain but is expected to be fit to play, while Stephen Ireland is available after a three-match ban.
Blackburn trio Robbie Savage, Stephen Warnock and Keith Treacy are all suspended for the trip to City.
But central defender Christopher Samba is available for selection after serving a one-match ban.BERN's point;
Manchester City boast the best record at home in the top-flight, winning 9 out of 9. thats y they are in top 6. with a visit by Liverpool on Sun. then a trip to Tyneside on Jan 2. any dickhead wld think City have to win. this being a home game. i dun see Blackburn taking anything from here... probably a point. but City i guess will be on their toes... after a scare by Reading from their visit.
1-0/2-1
LS: -1.5
.
What a BOXING DAY!!!
The cash register is ringing for sillypools....this time instead of collecting money from punters, I think they are giving money..
But, they still win la, who would had pick 4 - 4 score for Chelsea's game and 5 - 1 for Spurs's game?? 8 goals got 80 bucks leh..SO THEY MAKAN ALL AGAIN.
Today not bad, Jackpot on most games. :D
Flipped thru TNP, actually Gary Lim quite zhun, tio alot man, second is Eric Ding. (think must take part in the Reader vs Tipster challenge myself also....)

BOXING DAY!!! box SINGA-GAR-POT PUIIIOOOLLS...
ooi! Luis.. knn, i posted my comment why u never published on New Paper... kns!..
spoke to soccersiao on Monday over drinks at Bala.. (kns.. no char bor to bio..) he encourage me to take part in NP tipster challenge.. alrite.. can, i got the confidence one... but PLEASE.. no Miller, no Gay Lim.. I want that Ah Ding ding ding ding, Ah Ding ding ding*... i think his picks quite Zun one.. it be a healthy competition.. if im against him... ok.. no more cok talk.. here's the predictions;
TOTTENHAM vs FULHAM
spurs has that kelong kia Robber Keane who missed a penalty before the Gunners delivered the killer blow in a 2-1 loss away in their last game, before that spurs won 3 in a row.
the cotton-wool... did not score in 2 of their last away games... instead losing 3-0/2-0 respectively against Everton & Man United. i dun see them scoring.
2-0/3-1
CHELSEA vs ASTON VILLA
goalkeeper Cech is out, 2nd choice Cudicini also out together with Drogba, Hilario deputise in goal.
in last 6 league games, the villians performed better on the road than at home, unbeaten in last 4 meetings with the blues.. beating -1.5 handicap shld be no problem.
+1.5
WIGAN vs NEWCASTLE
DRAW
LS: 3-2
DERBY vs LIVERPOOL
surprisingly, derby score 3 goals in their last 5 league games. all coming on the road. once against Man United and 2 in their last game against Newcastle which ended 2-2 with the Rams leading the game twice.
despite not scoring at home, the Rams did not concede more than 2 goals. against my fav. REDS, derby have to do more to subdue the likes of Torres who's becoming a bargain despite the huge price tag that comes along.
0-3
PORTSMOUTH vs ARSENAL
0/2 goals

90th post.
wat the fuck is wrong with tnp postman? i can't see my comment after submitting! cheeze....
yah.. Liverpool once again lost to United. not Reds lousy... United simply good. well, they are the defending champions.. ive no complains bout it.
after last night, among BIG 4. Arsenal & United are front-runners for the championship. judging on their performance with the other 3 teams.
i support liverpool.. after another defeat to united last night. 9 points clear and it be hard to keep up. getting maximum and not dropping points against less-fancied teams is the way to keep up with the title-race.
chelsea? no comment...
at 1am this morn.. where most people having wet sort of dreams... there's group of people still awake.....
the guy wearing red.. hes wearing a fake United jersey... and man was he disgusting by digging his toes.. yucks!
TAK GIU LAND reaches its 90th entry as of now..... there's more to come..... definetly... :D

United reign at Anfield again
At least kenna something, Away 2.57 and 0-1 7.50.
Liverpool gave Manchester Utd an early Christmas present, 3 precious points. Its Liverpool's 2nd premiership lost in an row and they are now 9 pts behind the Champion.
Got a chance to interview Tevez, the goal scorer at the changing room after the match. Below is the content of the interview...
Me: Tevez, how's ur feeling now?My Man of the match is Rio Ferdinand. Rooney almost buried Liverpool, his shot missed the target when 1 on 1 with Reina.
Tevez: Its great to win away at Anfield. They were a great side, but lack of luck.
M: Do you think Utd played badly and win?
T: Well, I think we 've done pretty well. I was suprised that nobody was around me when Rooney's shot was coming towards me and I simply had to tapped the ball into the net.
M: Any last word from you?
T: Firstly, I would like to thank my boss, Alex for giving me a chance to play, his selection of players and his tactic were excellent, which made him the longest serving manger in the league.
Next, I would like to thank Rooney and Giggsy. Giggs fooled everyone, his short pass to Rooney at the edge of the box gave Rooney time to shoot. His shot landed right infront of me.
I also want to thank the defenders especially Rio Ferdinand for keeping Liverpool at bay. Van der Sar made few schoolboy errors and lucky, the lads cleared those dangerous balls.
Er, also want to thanks those supporters, tuning to Football Channel to catch the match when Star Awards is still on going on Ch 8. Glad that they had chosen to see stars at Anfield rather than those at caldecott Hill.
Lastly, thank my Father, Mother and everyone..
M: Thank u Tevez.
Pete, reporting live at Anfield for Tak Giu Land. Good nite.
Glory, Glory Man United....
Over at Emirates Stadium, 10 yellow cards were flashed to players. The game was full of tackles, dirty play and play acting..
Arsenal still league leaders with 40 pts, Man Utd 39 pts.
Yawn....
Edited at 17 Dec 2007 220am.

December 15, 2007
EPL BERN's selected picks;
manchester city v bolton wanderers
Eriksson will be hoping to welcome back midfield-general Elano to the starting eleven, and while one player, Dietmar Hamann, returns from suspension, Stephen Ireland misses out as he begins his three-match ban following his dismissal during City’s game against Tottenham.
Megson is likely to name an unchanged side from the one which beat Wigan last weekend with no injuries or suspensions to worry about, and as such Andy O’Brien, Nicky Hunt and Danny Guthrie will all retain their places in the team.
1/2 goals.
LS: 2-1/DRAW.
portsmouth v tottenham hotspurs
Lauren (hamstring), Martin Crainie (broken leg), Linvoy Primus (knee) and Sean Davis (hamstring) are all on the injured list though Lauren could be in contention again by Saturday. Kanu is getting near match fitness and could be in line for the starting XI.
Gareth Bale is being rushed back to fitness but still won't be ready for this one, and while Rocha is getting close to full fitness he won't make the line up for this either. Ledley King (knee), Anthony Gardner (ankle), and Benoit Assou-Ekotto (knee) are all out, while Robbie Keane is suspended for the 2nd of 3 matches.
DRAW.
liverpool v manchester united
Xabi Alonso could return to the squad after missing two months with a broken metatarsal. Right Back Steve Finnan is doubtful with a calf strain, while Centre half Daniel Agger (foot) is still missing.
Experienced United legends Gary Neville (calf) and Paul Scholes (knee), as well as Park Ji-Sung (knee) all miss out for United, but after the money spent by Ferguson in the summer, his squad should be able to cope without them.
home win.

midweek football, BERN's pick;
hey people.. once again... another dose of football action awaits wif UEFA, SERIE A and BARCLAYS PREMIER LEAGUE fixtures.
fellow TAK GIU founder, Pete.. think last wkend dio burnt bcos of URAWA REDS incompetent to land another J-League title.... losing to i don't which team. he sms me and luan gan... he suspect whether the match was fixed not... lol...
i also T.L lost on Spurs on sunday... but make up for it wif MAN U HOT on the heels towards BPL leaders Arsenal, who is schedule to play TOON ARMY tonight. news later on..
this morn got one char bor.. CHALLENGE LIM BEH WORRrrrrr! on the crunch game between the top 4 teams in England. Liverpool vs MAN United at 9.30pm & CHELSEA travel to Emirates to face ARSENAL at midnight on 16th Dec. as part of the KOP... of course i root on for the REDS la.. no need to say one... im confident wif Torres in RED HOT form now... i DO NOT believe Liverpool wld lose ground. we shall see... lol....
NEWCASTLE UNITED vs ARSENAL
st james park, Newcastle.
Newcastle will be without defenders Abdoulaye Faye (calf) and Stephen Carr (hamstring) for the game against Premier League leaders Arsenal.
Centre-back Steven Taylor (back) could return, but defender Claudio Cacapa and striker Michael Owen are both out.
Midfielder Mathieu Flamini has joined Arsenal's growing injury list, which also includes Alex Hleb, Cesc Fabregas and Abou Diaby.
Striker Robin van Persie is working on his match fitness after a knee problem.DRAW
LS: H-A
ROMA vs CAGLIARI
Stadio Olimpico, Roma
After spending the entire match against Udinese on the bench, the Giallorossi’s talismanic captain Francesco Totti should return to the starting line-up this week. What Spalletti decides to do with the in-form Vucinic is another story, however it won’t be easy. Perrotta and Aquilani are still injured; however both are nearing a comeback, whilst De Rossi is suspended for this match.
Having not won a league match for well over a month, the news on the injury front is a little more positive for the Sardinian club. Parola is suspended for this match, whilst Shala and number one goalkeeper Fortin will not be fit in time. Pisano has been out injured for some time now, and will continue to sit on the sidelines for another few months.
This shouldn’t make much of a difference however; as Roma’s attacking strength should be far too strong for a defence consisting of Ferri, Lopez, Bianco and Agostini.-1.5
LS: 4-1

Ro scored twice for Red Devils
Sigh, Uwara let the championship slipped through their fingers....wonder if had been rigged..
No JP for the weekend. :(
Back to EPL, this morning, Rolando scored twice over Fulham to fire Man United back to second place. Currently only Arsenal (1) and Liverpool (4) have a game in hand, for the standing in the top 4.
Cant wait for 16 Dec to come..
