MOM Iniesta........ 10/1

Possibly. Messi'll no doubt get it but I think Iniesta has masterminded the Barca attack.

Sublime in possession.

It shows how pathetic they are put in loads and lose and we will let you put in more and more....but win and we will make you jump through hoops to get it off us


From a company who needs to put on a virtual race every 2 minutes to squeeze the last penny out of each and every compulsive gambler who walks into their shop it is no surprise.

Graeme Sharpe of William Hill did a few good ones about scams, gambles etc about 5 years ago

Dave Nevisons books are a good read.

Not read the Veitch one but seen good reviews everywhere for it.

On a non racing topic Sharpe wrote a great book about the "fixed" Man Utd v Liverpool game called Free the Manchester United One: The Inside Story of Football's Greatest Scam

Might just be my local one but they tend not to have racing books there...not seen the Veitch or Nevison ones in there but have every football autobiography going and all those no mark hooligan memoires but that might just say everything about their local customers
