SEAN GRAHAM PG CUP FINAL 2008
20 teams, 18 weeks, and now folks we are down to the final two for the PG Cup Final 2008.
The Bright Sparks will take on our very own BMG Printers in this weekend’s final but let’s first look back to last week’s semi-finals to see how the teams made it here.
The inky Printers have eased through in every round and have now secured nine winners out a possible 12 selections. They tore Chucker’s Wipeouts apart last week with three good-priced winners. The Printers have been led majestically by Kevin ‘The Charmer’ McCabe who has instilled a winning mentality that has carried his press room companions into the final.
He keeps an unchanged team for the weekend so his big-hitting punters Conor ‘The Torture’ Vernon, Dermy ‘Legs 11’ Ó Tuama, Kieran ‘Steepledowns’ Sloan and statsman Bo ‘Big Bet’ Morrison all remain for the final.
“One thing we aren’t doing is under-estimating our opposition this weekend – we are keeping to our formula that has got us to the final. A winning quad would round it off for us,” Kevin McCabe told the PG.
“We have it all to do,” was the plaintive cry from the Bright Sparks – are the punting duo crying their luck?
It’s luck that has got Eric Savage and Diddler Johnston to the final after last week’s epic semi-final win.
They needed two late winners from Man Utd (1/5) and Histon (1/2) to secure a final spot but the lads will need to change their formula if they are to cause the Printers problems this weekend. The poor Glenhill punters delivered only the one winner at 5/6 as the Sparks’ short-priced winning treble ousted them, but only just.
“Luck has played a big part in us getting to the final and we think it’s time that we stepped up to the plate this weekend to show readers and the Printers we are a betting force to be reckoned with,” Sparks captain Eric told the PG.
“We are not here to make up the numbers at the weekend – we are here to win it,” added Eric.
No matter what happens, the losers are assured of £100 worth of Sean Graham betting vouchers.
BRIGHT SPARKS: Crystal Palace 4/6, Wolves 4/9, Hibs 4/7, Reading 1/2
BMG PUNTERS: Crystal Palace 4/6, Man City 5/4, Swansea 6/4, Southend 1/1.

SPORTS QUOTES OF THE WEEK
"I gave Ronaldo a shirt. It has got his name on the back. I'm disappointed that I seduced only Ronaldo's mum!"
Arsene Wenger on the day Cristiano Ronaldo slipped through his fingers to Old Trafford, despite charming Mrs R at Arsenal's training ground.
"I'm not delusional. I've still got self-belief that I can become world heavyweight champion next year."
Audley Harrison, shortly before losing to cab driver Martin Rogan. Taxi!

MICKY GINGE
And the winner is........
Audley Harrison!
Audley, you are very delusional my son. You would struggle to become a straw weight champion let alone a heavyweight. When we think of heavyweight champs we think of Ali, Tyson, Lewis etc. Harrison isn't fit to lace those boys gloves. The 'dream' is over mate, and it was over before you even fought Rogie.
Liam
ROGIES DREAM IS TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD A NEW SKODA OCTAVIA TAXI WHILE HARRISON IS SPENDING HIS MILLIONS LIKE IT OR NOT!
P.S...LIAM...HOW DID MY WAY DE ZOLDAN DO?
RAFFO
My Way de Solzen
GREAT TIPPING YET AGAIN LIAM
nowhere it finished
keep up the good work
Raffo
He can spend his millions but he will not be remembered in years to come as 'Harrison, the Olympic gold medalist'. He'll be known as Harrison the most over rated, under achieving, heartless boxer to ever set foot on a canvas. The worst thing is that he has boxing skills and he's a big fella, a good mixture required to become a champ but he just doesn't use them for whatever reason.
Liam
Raffo
Look back son, I didn't tip My Way De Solzen you fool!! Ha, Ha.
Liam
even worse you napped Natal (Nick Scholfield, 9-2 2nd-fav) hammered also
Raffo
I did, but didn't you just make a tit out of yourself AGAIN!! Ha Ha
What a mug you are!!
Liam
you are the one harping on about horse naps when they are getting well and truely hammered(top 3 you could have claimed unlucky but not even mentioned you tool)

Raffo
ok lads behave and Liam,stop giving bum naps out.Every paper today and the racing post advised punters to stay away from your nap but as always you know better
mackers
the bright sparks do not take many risks in their selections,Hope the print boys hammer them.At least they have picked hald decent prices
KS
Mackers
You're obviously reading different papers than me son. Check to see what Templegate's NAP is in today's Sun. Also, see what horse the Racing Post tipped in that race!
You talk as much shite as Raffo, in fact, I think you's are actually the same people!!!
Liam
MTOTO'S PRINCE backed from 33/1 into 12/1!!! About to go off, hope most of you are on!!!
Liam
MTOTO'S PRINCE went off at 10/1 after opening up at 33's.
I've £20 on at 33's each way!!
Liam
Chinned!!
The money was down but no joy!!
Liam

MACKERS
MTOTO'S PRINCE

Micky Ginge
Looking forward to Cheltenham tomorrow and Saturday. Hopefully I can add a few more quid to my winnings of this week. KATCHIT will be the main bet on Saturday!!
Liam
now were talking liam.
the class horse in the field
Raffo
get a room u 2,is it a love hate relationship?
mackers
Berbatov, Carrick and Ferdinand all doubts for Saturday's trip to WHL!!!
Liam
Cheltenham gets the go ahead today after an inspection but the cross-country course is due a further inspection at 10am. If it fails the cross-country race will be re-scheduled to be the first race on tomorrow's card. Today's meeting also looks like it is going to be put back 35mins.
Liam
Good morning to you too Liam.
Rio the drug dealer will be a big miss for the champions but they should be too strong for a very poor Spurs side.This is probably the worst Spurs side i have seen in years altho "Harry the bung" has done well to get them out of the bottom 3
Micky Ginge
Carl Froch looks set to meet American Jermain Taylor in the first defence of his WBC super-middleweight crown.
I've just noticed that Sheff Wed have nine players out injured!! That's why I hate picking teams before the team news comes through!!
First goalscorer bet this weekend...
AGBONLAHOR 4/1
KUYT 4/1
HESKEY 7/1
Prices with Boylesports
3 x £5 doubles and a £5 treble.
Liam
HESKEY...THATS A BIG RISK THERE.
couldnt score in armagh womens jail
dee mcl
Yeah, that's why there's about 4 or 5 clubs that want to buy him in January!!
Doesn't score as much as he used to but still dangerous infront of goal.
Liam
the 4 or 5 clubs that are after him are not after him for scoring goals.They are after him as a target man,battering ram type player but taking him to score first is crazy.His goal scoring record is absolutely terrible for a striker.
Raffo
heskeys goals in the last 3 seasons totals = 15.an average of 5 goals per season poor poor poor poor poor.
would hate to be waiting on him for a few quid.Some defenders score more goals eg - joleon lescott
dee mcl
Just as crazy as taking 9/2 about the top 4 all winning this weekend!! ;-)
Liam
By the way Raffo, every time you argue with me I always end up right so Heskey is liable to score 2 hat-tricks this week. I'm glad you disagree, i'll definitely not be changing my bet now!!
Liam
dont think so liam.
anyone who is hoping for emile heskey to score to win them money is in cloud 9.The big 4 are a far better bet thats why they are 9/2.
I am surprised at you but everyone to themselves.
p.s... is one of the teams interested in heskey D.C by the way
Raffo
He would not get on for D.C
JOEY T
IM NOT ARGUEING WITH YOU lIAM.iTS IMPOSSIBLE TO ARGUE WITH YOU MATE.yOU WOULD ARGUE THAT CHRISTMAS IS NOT IN DECEMBER AND THIS IS NOT FRIDAY MATE.
RAFFO
You mean it's impossible for you to argue with me because 9 times out of 10 I am right!!
The reason I opted for Heskey is because they are good at home, they're playing a team out of form and low on confidence.
We'll see what happens!
Liam
Cheltenham's Cross-Country race has been given the green light so it's a full card!
I think they may be starting the racing at the original scheduled time of 12.10 too.
For the Cross-Country race I fancy DROMBEAG.
Liam
Liam,you are mad to pick heskey to score.
I dont think heskey would even back himself to score first.
end off!1
Willie Bangle
the reason you opted for heskey liam is because you like big black men
raffo
Ouch Raffo.No need for that although Liam has been walking funny this while back!
Micky Ginge
So not only a you an ignorant, stupid scumbag Raffo, you are also a racist!
You should be ashamed of yourself you wee rat!
Liam
Racist !! not me Sambo sorry Liam.
Theres only 1 thing i hate more than a racist thats a jewish spurs supporter
Raffo
I fancy TOT O'WHISKEY to take the first at Cheltenahm. I also like FAIR ALONG even though he has top weight in the second race and DROMBEAG is the one for me in the X-Country.
Away for the oul Christmas dinner with work. Hopefully I'll be a few quid richer come Monday!!
Liam
Good Luck Liam.
Happy Christmas mate
Micky Ginge
God help the unlucky sod who sits next to liam at the christmas dinner.
They will be trying to eat their turkey and Liam will be telling them about the ground being soft at cheltenham!!!!!!!!!
