WARNOCK WEEKLY
- RESTORING BORO'S PRIDE 22-8-08
Tom Warnock
It can't be argued that Saturday was a fantastic
day all round. Football returned to the lives of thousands of
hungry fans who’d been debating and speculating all summer long.
We were all unable to cheer on our homeland at Euro 2008 and
many of us resorted to adopting a nation to attach our affections
to.
Personally, I followed Turkey, mainly for the presence of our
inherited son Tuncay. He was somewhat of an enigma during the
Championships.
However, he embodies the spirit with which the game should be
played, teaching a lesson to many of the young, aspiring, yet
underachieving English talent.
On Saturday, Tuncay continued in this very same vein, along
with every other Boro player who walked out on to the pitch
versus Tottenham. It was a composed, determined and tactically
astute display. Every player contributed as he should, fulfilling
his role to the maximum.
In the centre, Shawky and O’Neil narrowed the angles for Jenas
and Bentley, forcing the long balls, which Pogatetz and Huth
nodded away time after time.
Alves linked up well with Downing and Aliadiere whilst Tuncay
was in his element, moving between deep in midfield to wide
right to in the Spurs box.
With no new signings in the first eleven, all eyes were on Brad
Jones making his bow as Boro’s new number one. Or twenty-two
as the case may be.
In truth, Jones wasn’t really tested and he can probably count
himself lucky as Spurs spurned several efforts throughout the
game. Bentley was shooting blanks and the Manc bound Berbatov
wasn’t interested in the least.
The few efforts he did have to deal with, he seemed to do enough
with, but for a player of twenty-six years of age, he doesn’t
emanate confidence as a goalkeeper should.
He will be relying heavily on the calming influences of our
assured defenders to guide him through each game until he feels
at home.
Also, someone must try to drill out of him his habit of wanting
to punch everything he can.
There’s nothing quite like a botched punch to create panic and
uncertainty, whereas on the other end of the spectrum, an authoritative
catch high above defenders heads can stamp out an entire team’s
attacking momentum. Jones has to change this side of his game
immediately otherwise he will cost us points.
Despite all the positives from Saturday’s game, it has emerged
in the form of press speculation that Liverpool are the latest
team to want hometown lad Stewart Downing.
Figures quoted are around the £12million mark, which in all
honesty is a joke. In terms of what Stewy is worth to Middlesbrough
Football Club, we would be looking at triple that figure. Make
no mistake about it, Downing is integral to our potential success
and without him, we would now be languishing in the Coca Cola
Championship.
He played every single game last season and in my opinion, should
have been handed the captaincy.
I am not worried in the slightest about any interest from Liverpool.
The fat waiter (Benitez) can drool all he wants over our Stewey
like a hot plate of paella because for this season he’s here
to stay.
The Liverpool game will be an intriguing one. We have options
to change the team, the style and the tactics. We have flexibility
on the pitch and on the bench.
It also seems an ideal time to introduce Emnes to the Premiership
as the youngster’s pace and youthful lack of fear will be an
unknown quanitity for Liverpool.
It will also be good to see how the lumbering Hyypia and Co
look to deal with our pacey forward line, rearguarded by a solid
and menacing defence.
There seems to be a great feeling of optimism and purpose about
this season’s campaign. The club, fans and players are well
up for it and the challenge is there for everyone to rise to
the occasion and bring back the good times to Teesside.

CREDIT CRUNCH RELIEF - A GUARANTEED PROFIT OF AT LEAST £43.60 ON MANCHESTER CITY v ARSENAL
The Premier League returns to action this weekend and did you know that it is possible to win money on Saturday afternoon's clash between Manchester City and Arsenal, whatever the result?
The game kicks off at 3.00pm UK Time and we can guarantee you a profit of at least £43.60, 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 £43.60 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 £111.00 on the Manchester City v Arsenal match and we will collect £154.60 if Arsenal win, £155.00 if Manchester City win and £156.86 if it is a draw. That's a minimum profit of 39%, 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 Sky Bet .
Open an account with Betfair. It is really important that you enter the promotional code of FTB125 when prompted. This is to ensure that you receive your bonus.

Deposit £25.00 into your Extrabet account.
3. Now make the following bets.
Place £48.00 on Arsenal at 6/5 with Sky Bet

Sky Bet will now add a £20.00 free bet to your account. Place this on Arsenal as well. You will now have £68.00 riding on Arsenal.
Back the draw with £38.00 at 3.6 (or higher if available) with Betfair.
Place £25.00 on Manchester City at 3.1 (21/10) with Extrabet .

You have temporarily laid out a total of £111.00 on the Manchester City v Arsenal 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. All winnings are paid out on the ninety minute result.
If Arsenal win, you collect £154.60. That's £129.60 from Sky Bet plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.
If it's a draw, you collect £156.86. That's £131.86 from Betfair plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.
If Manchester City win you collect £155.00. That's £130.00 from Extrabet plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.
5. This means that the worst case scenario on the Manchester City v Arsenal match is Arsenal win and you make £43.60 profit. However, if Manchester City win you make £44.00 and if it's a draw win you make £45.86. That's a minimum profit of 39%, a much better rate of interest that you would get at any high street bank or building society.

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 this is the fifth season that we have been publishing arbitrage bets 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.
