Paradise Newsletter 5

Welcome, all you seekers of Paradise. It was Samuel Taylor Coleridge who wrote:

In Xanadu did Doctor of Danger
A stately pleasuredome decree:
Where Systems and Strategies, the sacred river, ran
Through staking plans measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.

That's right folks. We have moved. This is our Xanadu, we like it a whole lot and hope that you do too.

The shameless negligence of those doublespeak spouting cabbages at EZ board could not throw us off our stride. We've redoubled our efforts to come back stronger than ever. When Punters' Paradise gets pushed against the ropes we come out swinging; we throw our punches in bunches and the combinations are devastating to your brain.

So firstly, we rock you back on your heels with St Paulo's analysis of the Ashes; then some crunching body shots are delivered in the form of jamdog's review of this summer's action in the Big Brother house. From then on the punches just rain down: Ian Davies on betting forums, Doctor of Danger's Zonker interview and Crowie on the lower Scottish leagues smack you silly before the referee steps in to save you from further punishment.

And when it comes to quality of content we'll match any betting site out there, blow-for-blow. Expect the Paradise brand to expand further over the coming months with a few surprises in store for our growing band of devotees.

Buckle up, kids - it's going to be one hell of a ride.

Regards

Jamdog
