Keep it small and wait to see the teams

It's to early at the moment to tell what sort of bets to put on this year as most of the squads are not fully assembled, who knows what side of the bed Steven Gerrard is going to get out of tomorrow or which lucky number is going to be pulled out of the "eat ten packets or crisps and win a Bellamy" raffle so I'm not going to tip anything about the Premiership just yet........however I have noticed the points spread on Blackburn this year is a paltry 42......depends on who they get up front but I'm likely to buy this as they had a good end of season and have a good man at the helm.

Dropping down a division and I am going to make a play in the relegation market for the Championship, there are a few poor teams around and 1 of those is Brighton, they have lost a few good players recently and cannot strengthen thanks to the uncertainty with a new ground and John "2 Jabs" Prescott dragging his feet, even the £1/4 million windfall they received when an fan drank a oil tanker of coke has meant they brought in an unproven 19 year old striker. I truly hope they stay up but take the price now as I don't think it'll be around long.

Cardiff look tempting at big odds too seeing that they struggled last year and now have to trim a 1/3 of the wage bill to make ends meet, 2 of their best are of to West Ham with others fleeing shortly, nice price which should also come in.

Still to do the research for the lower leagues but when it is done the recommended tips will be here

Once again take the prices and then wait for the developments on whether to stick/twist or bust it but I can see all of these prices coming in very shortly and then we can "arb" back to give us a profit and then look to other markets. That is the aim, to always lock in the profit.

I will also be playing an accumulator on all 4 leagues as always......never comes in but when it does :) anyway here are the initial selections but I am not finalizing it until I know more

• Chelsea, Wolves, Bristol City, Northampton
