Rugby fans may have wept, but the Lions tour had the Edgers rubbing their hands
Sir Clive Woodward might have fallen from his previous position as rugby union guru/ saviour, but, frankly, we couldn’t care less.
The Lions’ disastrously unsuccessful tour of New Zealand ended in three maulings from the All Blacks, but we were too busy counting our cash to notice. Richard Bath’s tips in IE16 proved spot on, the biggest winner being a buy of New Zealand’s points supremacy at 18, as the hosts ended up beating the Lions by 67 points.
Okay, we called Joe Rokocoko slightly wrong (we tipped him as top series try-scorer and he didn’t play), but that aside it was a successful tour. For us, anyway – eh, Clive?
Runs for our money
At the time of writing, the Ashes is shaping up to be a money-spinner, too. We recommended a lay of England in the opening test at 3.7 or lower, a lay of the draw at 2.5 or lower and a sell of Marcus Trescothick’s series runs at 345 or higher. The first two bets netted a 6pt profit, while Trescothick’s measly total of 48 runs in two innings boded well (don’t speak too soon – Ed).
Lance Armstrong wheeled to victory in the Tour de France and we netted a 2.6pt profit on the event. However, it wasn’t all plain sailing last month: our world pool championship bets missed the target and our boxing bets were spoiled when Danny Williams pulled out of his title bout with Matt Skelton. You big wuss.
