The Fishy - Grimsby Town FC

Question of the Week

Is football a business or a sport?




 

Beat the Bookies: Week 29

By: Rob Sedgwick
Date: 13/03/2010

BRADFORD v Aldershot

Aldershot were terrible last week against Burton and have started to fade of late. Bradford have been playing well recently and should be far to strong at home.

Burton Albion v CHELTENHAM

Cheltenham have shown in recent games that they are capable of winning. Burton played well last week at Aldershot, but it will be a different kettle of fish at home where they have to take the initiative.

Chesterfield v PORT VALE

Both sides have been doing well recently, and Vale have picked up especially in recent weeks. They need a win to try and get involved with the play-offs

Morecambe v GRIMSBY

Grimsby have scored 5 goals in 2 games. Morecambe have hardly scored at all recently and their promotion campaign has begun to falter. OK Town lost in midweek but they'll be desperate to try and break their winless away form now that the other monkey has been lifted off their back. The biggest worry is Town's injury list but they do have a large squad.

Northampton v DARLINGTON

Everyones written Darlo off and theyll probalby go down but they are not playing for their careers and contracts next season. Bet on Darlo every week until the end of the season and you wont lose your money.

SHREWSBURY v Rochdale

Shrewsbury will be desperate to make up for the disappointment against Grimsby last week. Dale faltered in midweek and the Shrews may benefit from not playing since last weekend.

Notts County v BOURNEMOUTH

Notts Co are nearly always overpriced. Bournemouth are a decent side who could cause an upset. They didnt play in midweek so could benefit from the extra days rest.

  • Darlington to beat Northampton. 8/1, Bet365

    The Monkey's Bet

  • Grimsby to win 3-1. 40/1
