BIDS ROLL IN FOR RIVERSIDE CHARITY MATCH
By Middlesbrough FC
Fans are bidding to live the dream as a Boro star for the day as part of a charity fundraiser on the Riverside Stadium pitch just 24 hours after Boro’s final match of the 2007-08 season.
With former Boro star Mark Proctor as manager and ex-World Cup referee George Courtney officiating, the charity match will be the closest most supporters will ever get to being a pro footballer.
There will also be the chance to get changed and prepare for the match in the first team dressing rooms, to run out of the tunnel to the sound of Boro’s ‘Pigbag’ theme tune and hear your name called out over the Riverside PA system.
Boro fans can make cash bids to take part in the 90-minute, 11-a-side game on Monday May 12 – the day after Gareth Southgate’s side end their Premier League season at home to Manchester City.
Father Paul Farrer is organising the game with a team of fellow fundraisers, with all profits to be donated to Baghdad Children’s Cancer Hospital in Iraq.
Wannabe Boro stars can bid now to play in set positions in the fans’ match by emailing bids of at least £150 by clicking here.
Bidders should put the position in which they would like to play in the title of their email. They will be emailed back to let them know if they are the highest bidder.
The organisers would also like to hear from those who would prefer to play only 30 or 45 minutes. Again, bids should be made by email.
Top bids can also be checked on Boro’s official website Boro's official website at mfc.co.uk. The final date for bids is Friday April 23 2008.
Leading bids so far are: Team One: Goalkeeper – Nigel Chambers (£150), Right-back – Mark Page (£200), Centre-back – Michael Hawkins (£160), Midfield – Fr John Paul Leonard (£150), Right-midfield – Craig Wilkinson (£150). Team Two: Goalkeeper – Simon Robson (£150), Right-back – Marc Thomas (£150). No bids as yet received for other positions.
The fans’ match is just one of a series of events being organised by Father Paul and friends as he looks to raise £40,000 for charity during 2008 to mark his 40th birthday in October.
Other 40@40 events include a gala dinner at the Riverside Stadium on June 13, a casino night at Judges in Yarm, a Sixties Night at the Marton Hotel & Country Club, a gig at The Knights Club in Middlesbrough and a sponsored bungee jump from the Transporter Bridge.
Anyone interested in any of the fundraising events should contact Fr Paul at the email address above.
Good causes set to benefit include Teesside Hospice, Zoe’s Place, the Helen Timney Foundation for local underprivileged youngsters and a fund to send poorly children on pilgrimage to Lourdes.

A GUARANTEED PROFIT OF AT LEAST £41.20 ON PORTSMOUTH v FULHAM
Did you know that it is possible to win money on Sunday afternoon's Premiership clash between Portsmouth v Fulham, whatever the result?
The game kicks off at 3.00pm and we can guarantee you a profit of at least £41.20, whatever the result of the match. All you have to do is follow the simple instructions below and then sit back and enjoy the game. At full-time, you will be at least £41.20 better off, whatever the result of the match.
We must point out that if you want to take this bet, you should do it now because if the odds change, then the figures here will be invalidated. If they have changed, let us know and we will rework the bet for you.
You can still do this if you have a Betfair account but your overall profit will be reduced by £25.00 as you won't receive the £25.00 cashback as an existing account holder.
If you are unsure about this bet, you are most welcome to call us on 01642 223229 and we will help you as much as we can.
We're going to lay out a total of £71.00 on the Portsmouth v Fulham match and we will collect £115.00 if Portsmouth win, £112.20 if Fulham win and £114.13 if it's a draw. That's a minimum profit of 58%, a much higher interest rate than you will get in any high street bank.
Here's how it's done. Just follow these simple instructions.
1. Open an account with Coral. It is really important that you enter the bonus code of CORALTD when prompted. This is to ensure that you receive your bonus.
Open an account with Betfair. It is really important that you enter the promotional code of BFB425 when prompted. This is to ensure that you receive your bonus.
Open an account with Extrabet
 .
This shouldn't take you any longer than a few minutes.
2. Make the following deposits into your new accounts.
Deposit £20.00 into your new Coral account.
Deposit £26.00 into your new Betfair account.
Deposit £25.00 into your Extrabet
account.
3. Now make the following bets.
Place £20.00 on Portsmouth at 3.00 (2/1) with Coral.
Coral will now add a £10.00 bonus to your account. Place this on Portsmouth as well. You will now have £30.00 riding on Portsmouth.
Back the draw with £25.00 at 3.7 (11/4) (or higher if available) with Betfair.
Place £26.00 on Fulham at 2.2 (6/5) with Extrabet .
Extrabet match your first bet up to £25 so you will now have £51.00 riding on Fulham.
The £25.00 matched bet will not show in your account but you can read all about how it works on the Extrabet site. It's the purple box that says '£25 FREE BET FOR NEW CUSTOMERS' on the top right hand side. Click here to visit the Extrabet site.
If you are unsure about placing these bets, please feel free to mail us or call us on 01642 223229 and we will talk you through it, no problem at all. There is no such thing as a stupid question.
You have temporarily laid out a total of £71.00 on the Portsmouth v Fulham match. I stress, temporarily... Now sit back, crack a beer open and enjoy the match.
4. Here's what happens at the end of the game.
If Portsmouth win, you collect £115.00. That's £90.00 from Coral plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.
If it's a draw, you collect £114.13. That's £89.13 from Betfair plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.
If Fulham win you collect £112.20. That's £87.20 from Extrabet plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.
5. This means that the worst case scenario on the Portsmouth v Fulham match is Fulham win and you make £41.20 profit. However, if it is a draw you make £43.13 and if Portsmouth win you make £44.00. That's a minimum profit of 58%, a much better rate of interest that you would get at any high street bank or building society.
6. It is absolutely vital that you click on the links on this page to open the accounts with the two bookies and enter the correct bonus codes or you may not qualify for the bonuses.
Also, before you place your bets, you should check that the odds haven't changed. If they have, let us know by mail or phone us on 01642 223229 and we will rework the bet for you.
Please feel free to contact us or phone us on 01642 223229 if you have any questions at all about this bet and we will help you as much as we can.
Please note that the bonuses are valid for new customers only so if you already have an account with one or more of the bookies we are using, you won't be able to do this. If that is the case, mail us or phone us on 01642 223229 and we'll create an alternative bet for you using different bookies.
This method of betting was used very successfully during the 2006 World Cup and you can read all about how it was done right here.
We guarantee this bet
It's understandable that some people will not believe that it is possible to do this. "What's the catch?" I hear you asking. My answer to that question is that we have been publishing arbitrage bets for four seasons now and literally hundreds of people have profited from following the advice on these pages.
Only twice has our refund guarantee been triggered and that was when we did all the figures wrong and sent refunds out to those who had followed our advice and made a small loss.
Our refund guarantee works like this. If this bet doesn't work like we say it will and you end up out of pocket, we will refund your losses. Simple as that.
That means that you simply cannot lose on this, whatever happens and even if we messed up the numbers.
The only stipulation here is that you must click on the links on this page to be eligible for the refund guarantee, not that you'll be needing to claim anyway. Just enjoy the profit and stay posted for many more of these throughout the season.
