Middlesbrough cuts midfielder Rochemback loose

Soccer Betting Lines

05/13/2008 - Middlesbrough, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Middlesbrough have decided against offering midfielder Fabio Rochemback a new contract when his current deal expires next month.

The 27-year-old Brazilian, who scored a sensational free-kick in Sunday's 8-1 rout of Manchester City, will be allowed to leave the Riverside Stadium alongside unwanted duo Gaizka Mendieta and striker Dong-Gook Lee.

Rochemback made 33 appearances in all competitions this season but had been linked with a return to former club Sporting Lisbon at various points in the campaign.

"We both feel that the time is right for Fabio to have a fresh challenge," said manager Gareth Southgate in a club statement.

"Fabio is a talented player. I think he has just had his best season for us."

Meanwhile, Mendieta, who cost Italian side Lazio nearly $60 million when he moved from Valencia in 2001, has been allowed to leave on a free transfer.

The former Spain international has not made an appearance for the Boro first team since December 2006.

"It was a difficult situation for a player of Gaizka's caliber to find himself out of the first-team reckoning. It was a dent to his pride," Southgate said.

"I made it clear to him that he did not figure in my plans but he decided to stay and try to get back into the first team.

"That didn't work out but his attitude to training was always excellent and he was a good influence on some of our young reserve-team players."

South Korea international Dong-Gook Lee has also been released after struggling to hold down a starting place following his arrival from Pohang Steelers in January 2007.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
