The Eagles Punt – Bumper Christmas Tipping Edition

Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year to one and all and welcome to the 16th edition of the weekly gambling feature ‘The Eagles Punt’.

This week we have a bumper tipping selection, across multiple sports and we hope to bring you all a profitable end to 2014.

We have shaken it up slightly this week with 5 selections across the 3 Palace games as well as 5 extra tips on just about anything we like!

Introductions

• @cpfcpatriot – The Eagles Beak tipster
• @Andy_Bloss – Andy, now of @FYPFanzine, formerly of the local Guardian
• @HLTCO – Dan, the man behind the HLTCO blog
• @RedNBlueArmy1 – Terence, who runs the RedNBlueArmy fan site
• @EagleGolfTips – Tony, who gives excellent golf tips on his Twitter page

The Winning Bets

Tony and Andy both picked up minimal wins with bets on Yaya Toure and David Silva (respectively) to score at anytime for Man City. I gained a small profit by predicting Tottenham, Bournemouth and Plymouth to win.

Dan still leads, but his lead again shortens to £79.76.
