NORTHERN IRELAND v ENGLAND BEST BETTING TIP

After another storming performance by the UK's number one betting tipster, it's now time for part two of our 'Fleece The Bookie International' series.


Whilst England v Wales offered a fair few possibilities that we took advantage of in fine style, this time around it's slim pickings I'm afraid.

The fact that the game involves one of the poorest teams international football around has made the bookies really close up this time round.

Hey, I was talking about our cousins from the north of the Emerald Isle, not Erikksson's mob of wannabe galacticos.

Despite England being a three month camel ride away from the position of World Cup contenders that they would like us all to believe they are, we have a situation here where Goliath will brush away David with a mere flick of his index finger.

David Beckham's latest new barnet will bairly suffer one misplaced hair and Sammy Lee and Ray Clemence will probably only need to get to their feet at half-time and at the end.

I'd rather be watching North Ormesby under-12's play Billingham Cynthia myself but Corals aren't taking bets on that one.

But they are doing the international borefest and we are going to use our Welsh winnings to capitalise on the inevitability of an England win.

I staked £100 on the Wales game and walked out of the virtual bookies with £178 in my hand. Or my virtual wallet anyway. It's better that way because Mrs H doesn't get to see it.

I'm taking my original £100 back and I'm going to use it for a day out at Redcar Races. It's simply not worth putting it on this match.

There's no way you can use The Haverton Method of edging on the ht/ft and straight England win because the odds are so poor.

So instead, I am am going to try and edge it on the first goalscorer.

Let's look at the possible first goalscorers. All English because Northern Ireland will be lucky to get nil in this match and the only way they will score first is if they get into the brothel off that side street on Great Victoria Road before Rooney does.

Wayne Rooney 3/1
Michael Owen 10/1
Jermain Defoe 4/1
Frank Lampard 7/1
Steven Gerrard 8/1
Joe Cole 9/1
David Beckham 10/1
Shaun Wright-Phillips 12/1

With only two of them at less then 8/1, we can win here, provided Defoe or Rooney do not score first. And we can cover that and cushion the blow if Rooney does.

Knock Defoe out of the equation. Only because his odds are 4/1. You are left with Owen, Lampard, Gerrard, Cole, Beckham and Wright Phillips. It's almost certain that one of them will grab the first goal and I'm having a tenner on each.

That qualifies me for the free £10 bet from our good buddies at Coral. You can stick that on Rooney.

I think it's a certainty that Michael Owen will play but if he doesn't, it's one less tenner to outlay and more profit when the boat comes in tomorrow night.

Unless Jermain Defoe scores first and in which case I am back to where I started with just my original hundred left and you will have lost, if this is your first encounter of Harry's betting methods.

But if you a veteran reader of my column, you will know that there is not a man alive who can match my record this season. Or a dead one for that matter. My regulars have all made so much money from following my advice this season that they have all now retired and are living in large mansions in the stockbroker belt.

When's that Miusoccer bloke coming back anyway?
