I've made a decent amount lately by 'laying' half time scores on Smarkets (you can also use Betfair's exchange but they charge a higher commission). For those not familiar, you use a betting exchange to bet against something happening. So, ...

I hoped we'd sign McVeigh at the time. He helped us break the 19 game winless run and stay up.

Re: Is Keane better than Stones?

I don't think Stones is helped by City's chaotic approach to defending. He'd look much better in a well-drilled framework like ours.

Stones and Keane will be England's centre half pairing for years to come.
