First Down

Every time I have a Saturday game in my weekend bet, I am always worried that it will be the first loser.

It bugs the hell out of me when this happens as I have to wait until Sunday's games to get back on track.

I was close to ignoring the Saturday card and pick Sunday games yesterday.

Until I saw West Ham United were favoured against Burnley.

I felt they would win and, neglecting the opinion of the doubting angel on my right shoulder, I added them to the bet.

The Hammers went 1-0 up so I was cautiously happy as I closed the web browser that was showing me the live scores.

I returned a little later and the team had let in a goal so the game was tied 1-1.

And then things went even more awry.

Burnley finished the game as 2-1 winners.

The new rule is no more Saturday selections.

Well, not until next week.
