In 7 minutes time the tickets will be available (well pre-reg) for Venue and team packs anyway.
 

Heh I've even managed to post this before all the games have been played!
 
So back on the horse after a losing week – as always the question is – where is the value?

As I am getting later & later in posting so this is a quick review of last week’s punts which were a bit of a disaster.
 

A bit late posting this but always worth a laugh to see how wrong you were!
