VILLAIN OF THE WEEK 4-9-08
Peter Owen

Welcome to Villain of the Week - the most upfront feature the face of football has ever eyed. It promotes honesty and relegates cheats - and has no match.

Let's move straight on to this week's nominations:

Game: Boro v Stoke, Player: Amdy Faye of Stoke City


Your two-footed lunge on Shawky of the Boro was disgraceful and the Red Carpet is the way to walk it off.

Game: Bolton v WBA, Player: Leon Barnett of WBA

Your tug on Nolan’s shirt nearly strangled him.

Game: Chelsea v Spurs, Player: Jose Boswinga of Chelsea

You cut Bale down from behind just as he was about to pull the trigger after a tremendous run with the ball.

Game: Arsenal v Newcastle, Player: Joey Barton of Newcastle

Your tackle on Nasri and facial expression afterwards confirms to me that you and football have little in common.

Game: Arsenal v Newcastle, Player: Van Persie of Arsenal

You over-ran the ball and fell over fresh air to fiddle a free-kick.

Game: Sunderland v Man City, Players: One either side!!

Dunne and Reid both had a day out at the Head Bangers Ball.

And so over to our expert panellists:

Steve Goldby


My nomination is for Van Persie in the Arsenal v Newcastle game. I even have a song to dedicate to the incident. OK, it's not about football - it's about oral sex - but the chorus/title says it all.

Take a bow Van Persie. You have my nomination for this week. Be thankful that my campaign to change the title of this column to 'Dirty Diving Cheating Scumbag Of The Week' is being met with solid resistance.

Jeff Winter

Game: Boro v Stoke, Player: Amdy Faye of Stoke City


A very naughty tackle but actually the award should go to the Stoke fans who castigated the ref and Shawky following this tackle. It just goes to show what fans know about football!!

Game: Bolton v WBA, Player: Leon Barnett of WBA

He was just showing affection.

Game: Chelsea v Spurs, Player: Jose Boswinga of Chelsea

This was one of those cynical, cheating tackles that seem to be creeping back into the game.

Game: Arsenal v Newcastle, Player: Joey Barton of Newcastle

It looks like Joey is still going to give the fans a stick to beat him with. Mind you, he's a changed man you know, ask KK.

Game: Arsenal v Newcastle, Player: Van Persie of Arsenal

It was slippy and it's all part of the game, they say. This is the sort of thing the FA should look at on a Monday and issue a match ban for.

Game: Sunderland v Man City, Players: One either side!!

Never mind the players, referee Chris Foy was the biggest villain, giving a string of decisions that were absolutely unbelievable!!

Overall winner: Chelsea's Boswinga. This is something I see creeping back into the game. When it is as cynical as that perhaps a red card is the answer. It has to be stopped.

Peter’s analysis:

Our expert panellists have run the rule over this week’s nominations and on the back of their every word, the best team feature on the net kicks off again.

It buries the worst villains up to their necks in the correct mixture of pure shite every single week and leaves the fake bullshit for other websites to shovel up.

We even have an honesty award if someone comes up trumps!

Amdy Faye stands shamed up to his eyeballs after what can only be described as a pre-meditated act of venom. Broken down into plain English, it means that he is just one dirty bastard who doesn't give a toss about the consequences of his actions.

The last position we want to see any player in is laid out on a needless stretcher but another Eduardo incident is being allowed to brew by the FA.

When Barnett grabbed hold of Nolan’s shirt, it started out as the usual tug and ended up as the best handjob seen in football for years. In the end, Nolan’s neck was hanging on to his shoulders by the skin of its teeth.

Jeff Winter's words of wisdom on the Boswinga incident emphasise why he reached the ultimate as a referee and his prose is mine to build on!

Boswinga chopped Bales down from behind as he was about to pull the trigger after running almost the entire length of the pitch with clinical precision. The modern day decision should have been a red card.

The gloating expression on Barton’s face after his tackle on Nasri clearly showed his childish mindset.

Van Persie fell over fresh air and although the incident was outside the box, it was still too close for comfort. There is something in the air over the Emirates Stadium because Adebyor often loses feeling in his lower limbs.

Steve Goldby, one of our expert panellists, has kindly dived into a Tube of Music and put the legs on Van Persie’s musical. However, all divers will be featured on the album.

Those who take a blatant dive inside the box should be shown a red card because that is how you endorse authority and protect the game. And who would dare turn back such progress when it gets rid of dead wood?

I have never criticised any referee in this feature. However, the Head Bangers Ball between Sunderland and Man City was the day that referee Chris Foy proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that he often operates with his head in the clouds.

He was an embarrassment, which says it all.

The only comfort I can take is that refs of his calibre are allocated to grounds where relegation is the main talking point, so the Stoke fans will be able to welcome him with outstretched arms.

Our expert panellists have come to a split decision. Therefore, Van Persie can face the music and Boswinga gets my casting vote and is our “Villain of the Week”.

Please feel free to comment on any aspect of the feature. However, if any part of it makes your blood boil, then thanks for bookmarking it and joining the thousands.

Over-valuing footballers has seen the Roman Candle at Chelsea get his fingers well and truly burnt. The spin off we’ve seen doesn’t give Berbatov an extra leg or turn Robinho into another Pele overnight.

Finally, thanks to both Jeff and Steve for their brilliant and fully expected comments.

A GUARANTEED PROFIT OF AT LEAST £45.64 ON STANDARD LIEGE v SAMPDORIA

There's some great Uefa Cup matches this midweek and did you know that it is possible to win money on Wednesday evening's Uefa Cup clash between Standard Liege and Sampdoria, whatever the result?

The game kicks off at 7.45pm UK Time and we can guarantee you a profit of at least £45.64, 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 £45.64 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 £104.00 on the Standard Liege v Sampdoria match and we will collect £149.87 if Standard Liege win, £149.64 if Sampdoria win and £151.50 if it is a draw. That's a minimum profit of over 43%, 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.

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 £41.00 into your new Sky Bet account.

Deposit £38.00 into your new Betfair account.

Deposit £25.00 into your Extrabet account.

3. Now make the following bets.

Place £41.00 on Standard Liege at 11/8 with Sky Bet .

Sky Bet will now add a £20.00 free bet to your account. Place this on Standard Liege as well. You will now have £61.00 riding on Standard Liege.

Back Sampdoria with £38.00 at 3.4 (or higher if available) with Betfair.

Place £25.00 on the draw at 3.03 with Extrabet.

Extrabet match your first bet up to £25 so you will now have £50.00 riding on the draw.

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 £104.00 on the Standard Liege v Sampdoria 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 Standard Liege win, you collect £149.87. That's £124.87 from Sky Bet plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.

If Sampdoria win, you collect £149.64. That's £124.64 from Betfair plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.

If it's a draw you collect £151.50. That's £126.50 from Extrabet plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.

5. This means that the worst case scenario on the Standard Liege v Sampdoria match is Sampdoria win and you make £45.64 profit. However, if Standard Liege win you make £45.87 profit and if it's a draw you make £47.50. That's a minimum profit of over 43%, 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 three 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 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.
