English Football 2016-2017: NOW WITH 100% LESS FANERIO - Page 1125 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

I was lucky in the Spurs ticket lottery for the game against Bournemouth, scored 4 tickets in Section F. So I will be traveling to the game with my wife and kids (8 & 10). Not soccer related, but where in London would you stay? We be making a trip to Watford to visit Harry Potter for my son, but the other days we will be free. We land on Thursday early and fly back on Monday. It is Easter weekend if that makes a difference.

Have you looked at hotels etc? Easter weekend is a really big partying weekend in London so they'll be really really expensive in the city. It's also worth noting that both the Friday and Monday are bank holidays so public transport will be more difficult. Depending on your budget you might find that staying around the edge that has good travel connections in (like somewhere along the lines of Watford) is the most appealing option.

Usually a few here that pay attention to this, what bookies are running easily exploitable Cheltenham promos?

So I've just got to my hotel in Nuremberg and picked up a copy of 11 Freunde, Germany's version of When Saturday Comes, and I scan down the contents and see on page 88 "Wenger ist wie AIDS", sure enough they have a feature on AFTV

I once had a brilliant night at Mata Hari Bar, if you're looking. Make sure to get your share of Bratwürste and/or Schäufele and Schweinsbraten mit Klöß somewhere also.

Thanks for the recommendation, found a nice place on AirBnB. They said it was in a council estate, sounds nice.

My parents live in Watford so I know it quite well. It's ok, nothing particularly spectacular but can give some recommendations for things if you like. I think that if any part of that town is a dump then it's the stadium though!

I found an apartment on AirBnB in the Westminster section of London for a little over $260 a night including cleaning with decent reviews.

Apparently new customers can place a £10 bet with victor chandler and get a free £2 bet on every single Cheltenham race. Think there are 24 races now that it's a 4 day festival? Seems decent.

No idea about exploitable promos but I'll be backing Yanworth and Native River for all the money.

Not in terms of distance covered. If you cover a vast distance walking, or very % of it is when you don't have the ball but your team has it. Youre running around like a headless chicken.

A lot Ozil distance is from walking around. Sanchez doesn't walk around as much but has a much higher distance covered a high speed.
