    Right thinking of doing an accumulator with 4 or 5 teams to win their respective leagues.
    Premier league: thinking Man city (but man u will be there at the end and have an easier run in IMO)
    Championship: thinking West Ham might nick it (but southampton have been there all season long)
    Scottish first: Ross county
    Bundesliga: Dortmund
    French: PSG

    anyone watch a LOT of the football outwith premiership that can voice their opinion on the above mentioned leagues (or any others not mentioned)

    do you watch all the leagues mate. I watch a bit of german, you like me and think dortmund will do hold onto first? just think the 1-0 win in munich few weeks back convinced me they can do it for second year on a trot. French not a lot to be fair just going with the idea that PSG have spent a lot of cash, been many years since their last title win, much more established club etc etc will do it, shed any more light?

    Have to agree with what you have went for and i also think Juventus will win the Scudetto. And i have no doubts Madrid'll win la liga so no point even choosing that on your accumulator.

    been keeping a close eye on Italian league from the start watching Juve more than anyone. Juve have had no European football to contend with this year so full concentration could go on the league. Spent big in the summer with a lot good acquisitions, not won the league for a long time so right up for it, and moved into a brand new stadium. Now I usually dont like new modern stadiums but theirs is good very close to pitch (a break from the norm in Italy) and seems built with a purpose of creating a great atmosphere, every game has been packed, with supporters right behind them which seems to be helping the team along (still to lose in the league home or away -but with a lot of draws). However AC Milan are right in there and are on great form too with a very attack minded and potent front line. Juve were all along going to be one of my first picks on my accumulator (been biding my time, for odds form and close to season end) now not so sure. thinking Milan could screw my bet and pinch the league...??

    checking out the dutch league there. very tight at top, good to see a league like that.

    PSV 48
    AZ 46
    Twente 45 **
    Heerenveen 44
    Ajax 43
    Feyenoord 41

    ** has a game in hand over the rest listed

    What makes you think Ajax above the rest? got their work cut out a bit, no?

    What about Heerenveen? looking at their results got a couple of thrashings at start of season but since been on some run beating practically everyone.
    ajax and twent beat the 5-1 back to back in august then psv done them 5-1 too in dec but they also done az 5-1 in dec then almmost beat them again last week losing a late goal to draw 3-3. which would have put them 2nd!! been dishing out some big wins along the way

    http://www.livescore.cz/team.php?teamid=10228

    a really decent run in will hinge on how they fare against PSV and Ajax

    maybe worth a punt? (25/1 in hills) or even each way??

    First of all Im an Ajax supporter. :icon_mrgreen:
    But seriously...Ajax has still 11 games to play with 7 matches at home.
    But on the other hand, they still get PSV (home), Heerenveen (Away) and Twente (away.) Still a few difficult games ahead, but I think they can pull this off. :50:

    well that would explain things :icon_mrgreen: good luck :50:

    Heerenveen? its not normal for them to be pulling off wins like they are, is it?
    guess no chance to seriously challenge for title??

    got a £2 bet on 6 teams to win there leagues.

    Man Utd @ 2/1
    West Ham @ 6/4
    Charlton @ Evs
    Crawley @ 1/2
    Fleetwood @ 5/4
    Celtic @ Evs

    Made the bet i think in december and it returns £202.50.

    I think Manure will win the EPL, West ham are up there as are Charlton, Crawley are falling away buthave games in hand, Fleetwood are a few points ahead and Well..Celtic....
