		<description><![CDATA[ Leeds Rhinos boss Brian McDermott is eager for his side to beat St Helens on Monday to banish the memory of their heavy defeat to the Saints two months ago ( Leeds 2/5, draw 20/1, St Helens 15/8 – Match Odds ). Last season’s Grand Final winners were thrashed 46-6 by Saints at Langtree Park on March 26, the heaviest defeat of McDermott’s reign to date. The result brought Leeds back down to earth with a bump after they had begun their campaign with five consecutive victories, starting with their 26-12 World Club Challenge win over Manly Sea Eagles in February. Their Super League form has been inconsistent ever since, losing three games out of five to go into this game down in eighth place in the table ( Leeds 11/1 to win 2012 Grand Final ). McDermott admits that the defeat still rankles and is keen for his players to set the record straight at Headingley on Monday evening. “We are still talking about the last time,” said the 42-year-old. “It wasn’t a great day. They had every reason to be very, very good that day and we had a combination of an off-day and some key people missing. “We’ve taken that into account, but overall we under-performed and that’s something we want to get right. There’s certain things we want to put right throughout the year and this is one of those.” ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ David Gold says West Ham’s ( 2/1 to be relegated at the end of the 2012/13 season ) Championship play-off final success against Blackpool on Saturday will restore pride in the club. Ricardo Vaz Te scored the crucial goal three minutes from time to give Sam Allardyce’s men a 2-1 victory and return them to the Premier League at the first time of asking following their relegation last May. After winning what is known as the most lucrative match in football, the East Londoners are now expected to generate an estimated £90million in revenue, which will help the Upton Park side compete in the top flight against the likes of Manchester City ( 11/8 2012-13 Premier League outright ) and Champions League winners Chelsea. However, Hammers’ co-owner Gold says that, although the money could prove vital, the pride that being back in the Premier League gives everyone concerned with the club, far outweighs the financial benefits. “You know, people talk about the money, but pride is so important,” Gold told Sky Sports. “I keep coming back to talk about this being the richest game in football and of course it is, but what we miss out on sometimes is the impact it has on fans and it’s vitally important that this great football club with great traditions is back in the Premier League.”   ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bayern Munich's French forward Franck Ribery is determined to try and seize the opportunity of Champions League glory when his side take on Chelsea on Saturday evening. The German outfit, 4/9 with bet365 to lift the trophy in their own Allianz Arena, go into the game as slight favourites, but Ribery is wary that at 29 years of age, this might be his last chance of success in Europe's top club competition. He said: "It is not every year that you get to play in a Champions League final. I am now 29 and I don't know when my next chance will be. "Maybe I can win the Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal again in future, but it is harder to win the Champions League." Bayern go into the game shorn of the services of banned trio David Alaba, Holger Badstuber and Luiz Gustavo, while Chelsea will miss John Terry, Branislav Ivanovic, Raul Meireles and Ramires due to suspension.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Responding to an online petition with nearly 10,000 signatures to "protect consumers, create jobs and generate revenue by licensing and regulating online poker," Brian Deese, Deputy Director of the National Economic Council and President Barack Obama's special assistant to the president for economic policy, issued a statement on Friday outlining the White House's current position regarding online poker in the U.S. The petition and response came within the context of the White House's "We the People" project launched last fall to facilitate better communication between the federal government and American citizens. The web portal allows for the starting of petitions such as the one created by the Poker Players Alliance regarding online poker, with those receiving more than 5,000 signatures guaranteed to receive some sort of official White House response. In the statement titled "What We Have to Say About Online Poker," Brian Deese notes that the Obama administration "understands that many Americans engage in paid online poker games for entertainment purposes." He goes on to add that while "online gambling on sporting events or contests violates federal law," the legality of other forms of online gambling "is dependent upon the law of the states where the bettor or gambling business is located." By distinguishing between sports betting and other forms of gambling, Deese here echoes a distinction made in a U.S. Department of Justice memo made public last December in which Assistant Attorney General Virginia Seitz opined that the Federal Wire Act only applies to sports betting, not other forms of gambling. Deese then adds that when it comes to online poker, "it is left to each state to determine whether it wishes to permit such activity between its residents and an online poker business authorized by that state to accept such wagers, but online gambling that is not authorized by state law may also violate federal statutes." The statement goes on to articulate in a general way various concerns regarding online gambling, including the possibility of minors' participation, fraudulent transactions made easier thanks to the anonymity of the internet, and avenues to money laundering. The statement indeed shows the Obama administration is aware of and concerned with current legislative machinations (both state and federal) regarding online poker in the U.S., and that it is the White House's current stance that individual states retain the authority to determine the legality of online poker (and other types of online gambling) within their borders. Such a statement will necessarily have influence going forward as various states continue to examine the possibility of offering online poker as well as other forms of online gambling (discussed recently here).

		<description><![CDATA[ Roger Federer will face Novak Djokovic in the semi-finals of the Internazionali BNL d’Italia in Rome on Saturday evening ( Match Prices – Djokovic 4/5, Federer Evs) and the Swiss ace feels the only way to play is to attack. The 16-time Grand Slam winner is in fine form and has already collected four titles this year, including a win on clay in Madrid earlier this month. Federer (7/2 Tournament Outright ) crushed his quarter-final opponent, Italy’s Andreas Seppi, in just 53 minutes (6-1 6-2) and will look to take that form and confidence into his showdown with the world number one. The duo have not faced each other since the US Open semi-final last September – Federer leads the head-to-head stats 14-10 but Djokovic (13/2 to win all four 2012 Grand Slams ) has won four of the last five encounters. Rome is one of the few big ATP Tour events that Federer has never won and he appears determined to put that right this week. When asked about his game plan for the semi final, the 30-year-old said: “The goals have to be the same against Djokovic – take it to him and play my game.” The Serbian star was given more of a test by Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, but eventually ran out 7-5 6-1 victor and described the second set as “one of the best sets on clay this year” that he has played. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Durham batsman Gordon Muchall is hoping victory over Surrey in Sunday’s Clydesdale Bank 40 clash could help to kick-start their faltering season ( Durham 6/5, Surrey 4/6 – Match Prices ). The Riverside outfit have endured a dreadful start to the season and currently sit rock bottom of the County Championship Division One table with three defeats and two draws from five matches played. Appalling early-season conditions have not helped their cause and the north-east batsmen have managed to secure just one batting bonus point so far this campaign. But they did manage to get a win on the board against Somerset in their opening CB 40 clash last Sunday ( Durham 10/1 – CB 40 Outright Winner ). Muchall was the star of the show on that occasion, scoring 75 as the Dynamos inflicted a 14-run defeat on the powerful south-west one-day outfit. The 29-year-old admits it has not been an easy start to the season and hopes that finally getting a win on the board will help his team-mates rediscover the form that has seen them in contention in most competitions over the past few years. “We needed the win just to get us going,” he said. “Obviously, the lads have found the conditions quite tough when batting. “We haven’t got off to a great start, but hopefully last Sunday’s success can kick-start our season.” Surrey beat Scotland to open their 40-over campaign with a win and Muchall is aware of the task that his side faces to double their win tally this weekend. “Surrey won the competition last season, and they are a young exciting side, so we know it will be tough,” he added. “Momentum is a massive thing in cricket, so hopefully we can get on a bit of a roll.” ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chelsea interim coach Roberto Di Matteo, whose side are 15/8 with bet365 to lift the trophy, hopes that home advantage will add to the pressure on Bayern Munich in Saturday's Champions League final. The German giants are 4/5 to deny the Blues a first success in the competition, with many pundits feeling that playing in their own Allianz Arena will be a big benefit for Bayern. However, Di Matteo believes that the venue may heap a little more pressure on the Bavarians, telling UEFA.com: "I have been asked this question before and I'm not sure if it will be like having home advantage. "It could go either way. If you look at it from another angle, maybe it will bring added pressure. It's difficult to say whether it will or not." Bayern and Chelsea have only met on two previous occasions, with the Blues edging home 6-5 on aggregate in an action-packed quarter-final tie.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chelsea have been told they must keep their emotions in check if they are to lift the Champions League trophy in Germany on Saturday. The west London club, who are 14/1 with bet365 to defeat Bayern Munich 2-1, are without the banned John Terry, Ramires and Branislav Ivanovic, and will be facing the German giants on their home ground. However, they have received a boost with the news that defensive duo Gary Cahill and David Luiz are set to take part after recovering from injury. Meanwhile, midfielder John Obi Mikel insists the Blues have a great chance of tasting Champions League glory. He said: "You have to maintain the will to win at all times, but also stay calm. You can do it - that's why we are professionals. If you know how to manage these two things together, it makes your life in football - as well as outside football - very much easier."]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Ian Holloway believes Blackpool have hit form just at the right time as he looks for a second Championship play-off win against West Ham on Saturday ( Blackpool 11/4, draw 5/2, West Ham evens – match betting ). The Seasiders shocked everyone when they won the 2010 play-off final against Cardiff City, having been tipped for relegation that season. Blackpool then nearly defied the odds again when they were narrowly relegated from the Premier League, becoming one of only four teams to go down with 39 points or more. Holloway is now aiming for an immediate return to the top-flight on Saturday when they face West Ham, a team that have beaten the Seasiders 4-0 and 4-1 already this season. The Hammers have spent big throughout the season and as such are the favourites to secure promotion. Sam Allardyce’s team are 4/7 to win promotion back to the Premier League, with Blackpool 5/4 . Despite the Hammers being the favourites to defeat Holloway’s men the Seasiders boss is confident his team can upset the odds again at Wembley. “We’ve managed to improve all the way along and now we’re in our best run of form all season,” he said. “We’re up against a really good team, definitely the third best team in the division, and we’re going to have to play better than we ever have to get anything. But I believe in my team and we’re going to try our best.” ]]></description>
