Betting on the horses with Paddy Power is possibly the best thing any fan of the sport could actually do. Paddy Power prides itself on its level of intelligence when it comes to horses and jockeys and with so many brilliant runners and riders coming from their home country of Ireland when you get a tip from any radio service you are listening to via paddy power I would say get a bet on because these boys do know a thing or two about Horse racing.

Paddy Power also offers some of the most competitive odds you are likely to find anywhere on the Internet with many different bets like their horse racing specials which Paddy Power normally does a lot of before a big meeting anywhere in the world which can be anything from how many winners will a certain jockey or trainer get at a meeting or if your selection finishes in the top 3 you will still have a return of your stake but Paddy Power does so many I would advise having a little look to see what exactly they are offering.

Paddy Power’s future racing or ante post is also packed full of horse races that will draw the punters to the shops or computer nearer to race day. Everything from the big worldwide flat races to next year’s Cheltenham spectacle all have prices open on them already so if you do have a tip on anything get a look at what Paddy Power are offering because it is likely to be one of the best prices you will find anywhere. Fans of Virtual racing will like Paddy Power’s version because one thing I have noticed is that they have more big priced winners than favourites which can only be good for the pocket.

This amazing offer which I am sure will have people betting with Coral in the month of June and will help them narrow the gap on the bigger online websites is available to both new and existing customers and covers every sporting bet offered at Corals.co.uk so if you are not already a member get on board at Coral.

How it works is very simple and straight forward, Coral.co.uk will total up all your bets each month and split them into two categories winning bets and losing bets. Every single losing bet you have staked over the month will be added up and 10% of that losing total will then be added to your account automatically making the blow of all them losses that bit easier to take.

The cash back offer is only given to each individual account so Customers with multiple accounts will not be eligible for more than one cash back which is pretty understandable. New accounts being opened to claim additional cash back will be closed and also run the risk of having all your other accounts suspended or even terminated by Corals and too be honest I do not blame them if they did. I think this a great offer from Corals and one that for the serious punter has to be taken up because every little helps!

The football odds on Luton Town FC are down. There was a time when Luton Town F.C. played in the top flight football league. This season saw the fall of the club as they were relegated to the Blue Square Premier League where they will now be playing conference football.

Get football odds at Ladbrokes.com click here!

Luton Town F.C. started so well, being the first football club to turn professional in the south of England. No doubt their most memorable playing years were in the 1980’s where in 1981/82, Luton Town won promotion into what was then the First Division. 1988 saw the club win the League Cup against Arsenal in a thrilling 3-2 victory. Top flight remained for the club until the 1991/92 season when it all started to deteriorate.

2001 saw the departure of some of their good players for example, Matthew Upson however it did see the arrival of Joe Kinnear who led the team to promotion that same season! Kinnear’s stay was short lived though and the appointment of arguably one of their best managers came in 2005. Mike Newell found success with the club and took them back to the Football League Championship in 2005. Again, this didn’t last long and another new manager took over and was later sacked as Luton Town were relegated again. The 2008/09 season started badly as Luton were docked a staggering 30 points for administration and financial issues. It was an uphill struggle from here on in and it proved too much of a battle where Luton found themselves relegated down to conference level football.

Coral.co.uk – I have to say I have woken up today with a bad taste in my mouth, after witnessing possibly the worst ever refereeing performance I have ever watched in the 30 odd years I have been following Football and dare I say it I actually think a bit of cheating was behind the reason so many blatant penalty decisions were not given.

For online betting with football at coral.co.uk click here!

Chelsea players themselves have said they are certain UEFA did not want two English Football teams in the final of the Champions league two years running and on the evidence of last night who can blame them? Out of the four decisions that Chelsea are doing their head about only 1 I think I will agree with the referee on but at least two out of the other three for me were not only penalties but definite Red Cards as own both occasions the players that committed the foul and the hand ball were the last man and stopped blatant scoring opportunities which by the letter of the law is a sending off offence.

Even Abidals sending off for Barcelona was wrong as I actually thought Anelka tripped over his own foot when approaching the area and should not have even been a free kick! But this referee proved he did not do anything by halves and quite frankly totally ruined what should have been a great European night of football and should never be allowed to referee a high pressure game again as I am sure the Football in Norway (where he came from) is not even 50% as fast as what he would have encountered last night.

But you just cannot help thinking there was a conspiracy behind last night’s result? And I look forward to watching Manchester United strike revenge for English Football in the final at Rome in 3 weeks.

This weekend saw some absolutely huge games in the UK Premier League at WillHill.co.uk so what better time to analyse this seasons competition. With only two league games remaining we are still see any final standings decided, normally at this point of a season there is at least one club relegated and more often than not we have the league champions, but this season is so different, and so exciting!

For online betting on UK football odds at WillHill.co.uk click here!

The league championship in fairness does look like staying at Old Trafford as Manchester United are looking good to take the title again with some low football odds, but Liverpool are not giving up without a fight, only three points behind the leaders. Even Chelsea have made a late surge and mathematically can still win the league, although the chances are pretty slim.

The bottom end of the table looks a lot more interesting though as there are six teams still battling it out to survive and have another season in the Premier League. Those teams are West Brom, Middlesbrough, Hull City, Newcastle United, Sunderland and possibly Portsmouth. It doesn’t really look good for West Brom as they MUST win their final two games but hey, they have done it before so why not again.

Middlesbrough and Hull City both currently complete the bottom three as their form is terrible, Middlesbrough having won only one game in 20 games and Hull City were sitting in 6th position at Christmas looking for a European spot and now battling for survival. Newcastle and local fierce rivals Sunderland are just outside the relegation zone with everything to play for.

WillHill.co.uk has all this UK football information  plus much more so why not visit them today and have a look at the excitement as it unfolds.

It was a big shock to everybody that watched the 2009 Grand National on PaddyPower.co.uk to see a 100/1 shot make it past the finishing line first! I expect that it was an extremely happy shock for anyone who had a bet on Mon Mome but what do you really know about the year’s most prestigious horse racing event?

For online sports betting at PaddyPower.co.uk click here!

The race is held in Aintree, Merseyside every year. The distance of the race is approximately 4 miles 856 yards long with a staggering 30 fences to battle with before reaching the finishing line!

The most famous Grand National horse was Red Rum. He won this title three times and no other horse has ever beaten that. His first victory was in 1973 and he won the title again the following year however managed to also win four other races in between! 1977 saw his third Grand National victory but that was to be his last Grand National win as the morning of the 1978 race, he had to pull out due to a hairline fracture. Red Rum died in 1995 but is always remembered as the greatest horse of the Grand National.

The 1997 Grand National had to be postponed due to bomb threats and with the risk to tens of thousands of people, had to take place on the following Monday.

From 2000 to 2008, the highest odds for the winning horse came in 2001 and 2007 with 33/1 shots on Red Marauder and Silver Birch. That was until 2009 when Mon Mome battled against the odds to take the title. Such excitement has also been seen in football odds this week on PaddyPower.co.uk.

This weekend is probably the stage of the biggest Boxing bout of the year on PaddyPower.co.uk, when British legend Ricky “The Hitman” Hatton takes on the current best pound for pound fighter in the world in Manny “Pacman” Pacqiaou.

For online sports betting at PaddyPower.co.uk click here!

The fight did appear to be in doubt until a couple of months ago with all the money etc involved but it is now definitely on and will be staged this weekend in Las Vegas. Many people claim that this might be Hatton’s last fight because after he lost his high profile fight against Floyd “Pretty Boy” Mayweather they feel another high profile defeat would end the mancunian’s career.

Boxing is a sport that has not always been seen as a “sport” and still had a lot of people against it as they see it as brutality as opposed to a sport, but I disagree, there is a referee, there are two corner teams, judges and HUGE gloves, it’s not as if it is bare knuckle fighting.

Most professional fights consist of 12 rounds all with a three minute duration, each round has a one minute break between to allow both fighters to have a rest and also receive advice from their corners.

A fight can be won in a few different ways, the most popular among fighters and fans alike is a TKO which is a Total Knock Out, this is where your opponent is in no fit state to continue the fight. You can also win on points, three judges score both fighters on every round and the fighter with the most points wins. A match can also be declared a draw if both sets of points are level.

There are two different types of Rugby in the UK, there is Rugby League and Rugby Union, in this article I shall be focussing on the latter of the two. Rugby Union is competed by two teams and they both have 15 players each and of course the aim of the game is to get more points than the opposition, just like it is in most sports.

To place a bet at willhill.co.uk click here!

Although there are a few different rumours on how the game was founded, the most common is taken from a game of regular football but a player picked the ball up and ran with it, this player was called William Webb-Ellis and because of William’s antics, there is a cup competition every four years named after him.

Although a big national sport, Rugby Union was in deed still known as an amateur sport until as late as 1995 when the IRB (International Rugby Board) declared the game “open” meaning that there was no limit on what payments were made to the players of the game.

In all honesty I am not the biggest of Rugby fans, maybe it’s because I do not fully understand the rules but it is a hugely played and supported sport across the whole world, Australia, South Africa, France, Italy, the UK & Ireland to name but a few.

The most prestigious competition in Rugby League is the adventurously named “Rugby World Cup” where national teams from all over the world battle it out every four years in the hope to be crowned the world champions.
