Betting Spy: Chelsea and Corbyn boost our winnings

It’s horn blowing time for Betting Spy after a tough season which has suddenly turned around in the last few days.

Last week’s winning treble and our 13/2 tip on Chelsea to win the Premier League has pulled a pretty miserable punting season out of a financial nosedive and sees our running total for the season back to a respectable £60 profit.

And that’s even before our money comes in on an inevitable Tory majority at the General Election which we tipped at a even money last August which now looks like the bet of the year.

You have to hand it to Jeremy Corbyn – he’s certainly created a new type of politics.

One where winning power doesn’t seem a priority.

The bookies now have a Tory majority at 16/1-on which is a fair reflection of the parties.

If it was a horse race Theresa May would be whipping her mount to the finish line while dear old Jezza would be dithering at the start wondering whether to nationalize the stalls.

But enough of this weird imagery of politicians in silks.

Let’s try and finish the season with a winner.

You have to look at teams with something to play for so I’m looking at wins for Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City.

And to boost the price I’ll chuck in Burnley to beat a West ham side who were pathetic last week against Liverpool.

That accumulator pays 9/2 which should see us end the season with a smile.
