Angers: Midfielder Rayan Frikeche (19 appearances -3 goals -0 assists) and Diego Gomez (15-1-1) remain sidelined, the are a better team with both especially Gomez, but he has not played in 2013 and they have won their last two without his right sided colleague.

Tuesday March 5th

Nice late goal for Nantes to start the week..... long may it continue !

The afternoon email yesterday produced plenty of enquiries and questions and I spent several hours dealing with them all, but thank you for the respose !

Friday March 1st

Graeme McDowell opened with a solid 67 yesterday, three strokes ahead of both Tiger Woods and Rory McIIroy, no golf tournaments are won on Thursday, but he is now shorter in most betting lists than than the two pre tournament favourites and hopefully "our man" can build on that today and put himself in a strong position heading into the weekend.

Nothings Im-pozzo-ble

I want to discuss both the hosts here and Tours later in the email , the pair actually met last week  (Tours 2 Clermont 1) and I suggest you start by looking at those very entertaining highlights.

We discussed the visitors ahead of their 2-0 win at Arles two weeks ago....

Big day for me yesterday, over six points profit on five Ligue 2 selections , one of which, Laval, was posted on here in mid afternoon, so I am assuming most/all of you got to see that, they won 3-0.
