Villa v QPR Betting Preview
Friday, 15th Mar 2013 19:41 by LFW Pundits

Andy Hillman is averaging two winners a week at the moment and is back to survey the scene ahead of QPR’s trip to Aston Villa at the weekend.

Two winners again last week, both around the evens mark, as Newcastle beat Stoke in the league to break my NAP curse, and Sprinter Sacre romped home at Cheltenham by an astonishing 19 lengths.

NAP: Man Utd to win to nil vs Reading @ 17/20

Man Utd will be relishing the chance to play at home against Reading this weekend. The title’s already theirs, but they could properly rubber stamp it with a demolition job of managerless Reading, whilst City face a tricky tie at Everton.

QPR related bet: QPR to score at least two vs Villa @ 7/4

I don’t want to bet on the outcome of this game, even though I think it will probably be a draw. Instead, I’m going to back us to score at least twice for the third (!) game running. Remy will have plenty of chances against the Villa backline, he’s 6/1 to score first if you’re interested.

Longshot 1: ‘Do us a favour treble’ @ 8/1

Our immediate rivals all face tricky ties, with Reading at United, Saints hosting Liverpool and Wigan welcoming Newcastle United. All three of our rivals to lose is just under 8/1 with Pinnacle, which could end a perfect weekend on a high...

Longshot 2: London Calling treble @ 5/1

There are three London derbies taking place this weekend as Spurs host Fulham, Chelsea entertain West Ham and Charlton ‘welcome’ Millwall. All three home sides to win is 5/1.

Knees-up Mother Brown #24 by wessex_exile

After another weekend break to spend a very enjoyable afternoon with Spireite Craig watching the U’s get a well-deserved point at runaway leader Mansfield Town, followed by promotion back to the EFL for Chesterfield, the matchday Saturdays left before the end of the season are running out. So, given I’m away again next Saturday again to join 9,000+ for the visit of Planet Hollywood, I’m going to slip in a Good Friday special ahead of what will undoubtedly be two extremely important fixtures in deciding the fate of Colchester United. On Monday the family are arriving for their traditional Easter Egg Hunt (and obligatory roast dinner), so here goes for the visit of t’other Exiles to the JobServe. Come on Col U!

Knees-up Mother Brown #23 by wessex_exile

Following a disappointing result at Holker Street, exacerbated by yet more poor refereeing to deny us a clear penalty in the first half and award a non-existent free-kick to give the Bluebirds a first half lead (albeit the free-kick was an absolute blinder), and the inevitable postponement of the Donny game on Tuesday, the U’s now find themselves in the relegation zone. It is what it is, and with seven of our remaining 11 games at home, our destiny is still very much in our own hands – but everyone has to do their job, both on and off the (repurposed) pitch.

Knees-up Mother Brown #22 by wessex_exile

Thanks to a combination of postponements and a trip to Sutton following the U’s, it has been three weeks since the last blog, as the U’s prepare to face a very tricky opponent in Barrow AFC. Since they were voted out of the football league in 1972 (arguably thanks to Ronnie Radford’s screamer against Newcastle in the Edgar Street mud), the Bluebirds spent 48 years in the non-league wilderness before their return following the Covid-19 curtailment to the 2019/20 season. Some are surprised at how well they’re doing this season, but probably shouldn’t be – under new manager Pete Wild they finished a very respectable 9th last season and are clearly aiming to improve on that this time around. Mind you, we’ve got our own new management team in place too, and whilst wins are proving elusive right now, we’re certainly making ourselves a team hard to beat.

Bill Shankly once said that form is temporary, class is permanent. He was of course correct, but let’s hope never more so than today’s visit to Wetherby Road to take on the form side of League 2, Harrogate Town. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to say the Sulfurites have defied the expectations of most pundits, many tipping them to be in another relegation scrap this season. But, long-standing manager (and former player) Simon Weaver has turned things around, and they currently sit just two places and two points outside the play-offs. Weaver was rightly awarded the Sky Bet League 2 Manager of the Month for January – hope he looks after it, because it’ll be Danny’s soon.

Knees-up Mother Brown #19 by wessex_exile

February, and the U’s enter the most pivotal month of the season. Six games in just four weeks, with four of them against sides also in the bottom six. By March we should be either well clear of danger, or even deeper in the sh*t. With Danny Cowley’s U’s still unbeaten, and looking stronger game on game, I’m sure it’ll be the former, but first we have to do our bit to consign Steve ‘Sour Grapes’ Cotterill’s FGR back to non-league. After our shambolic 5-0 defeat at New Lawn, nothing would give me greater pleasure, even if it meant losing one of my closest awaydays in the process. What’s the excuse going to be today Steve – shocking pitch, faking head injuries, Mexican banditry or some other bit of sour-grapery bullsh*t?
