Welcome to Division 5, good luck.
@Tiffy @stuboy43 @mickyftm32 @Astleavista @CertiF @Johnrobertson @1945harry @ipswich45 @Sterphyle @Craggwood @jockprop @Alex Bird @Wanderlust @claretkid78 @Procalc

Here are the final results of all your 10 week efforts!
Not many winning bets for our final week (15) however most of them were 3-figure wins and nearly every winning bet resulted in the player earning a prize money place in the top positions of their league.  Bet of the week goes to @nawoo who went half bank on Palace at 18/1   followed by @Marek76 with a 16/1 treble, @chillymonster 11/1 treble and @Chris P 10/1 treble.
Massive congratulations to our overall winner @Soi Bongkot who has had 7 winning bets over the 10 weeks and held the number one spot for 8 weeks.
Thank you to everyone who played and completed the season.  In total 25 players were eliminated for no shows (from 139 starters) so we will be a more select bunch of hardy players looking to stay the course for next season.    
I'll tag our winners in a separate post.

Hope I haven't missed something, but shouldn't I be a wee bit positive at +1.27 instead of -1.73?:

So we finally reach the last day of the regular season. It was nice to get a profit on Monday with Weston, Dover and Dorking all landing at big odds. This season has been very up and down although still be a decent enough season. The ante-post stuff will show a nice profit and we are basically waiting on who wins the Evo-Stik Southern Premier as Weymouth and Taunton were both covered. I really need it to be Weymouth to help land a lumpy mid-season acca I put on (although Farsley aren't home and hosed yet either), but at least I have Taunton covered. Hopefully it can be a profitable end of the season on the match betting front where I have some big prices again.
AFC Fylde v Halifax
It doesn't really matter if Fylde come 4th or 5th and I reckon they might rest a few players in this match with the play-off matches coming thick and fast next week. They are guaranteed a home tie in the first round of matches and will be away in the next tie if they get through anyway so with that in mind Halifax are worth a bet here at 11/2. They beat Wrexham 2-1 on Easter Monday who are the team in 5th at the moment so there is no reason why they can't repeat the same sort of performance here.
Boreham Wood v Eastleigh
The home side gave it a good go at Chesterfield for us on Monday, but ended up going down 3-2 after having a man sent off. Eastleigh made sure of their play-off spot by beating Maidenhead and like Fylde it doesn't really matter if they finish 6th or 7th because they will be away in both the possible games anyway and I can imagine that they will rest key players. This gives Wood a chance especially as they have performed well in recent weeks so are worth backing at just over 2/1.
Bromley v Ebbsfleet
God knows what is happening behind the scenes at Ebbsfleet, but the players still haven't been paid and it is hard to see how they are going to be overly motivated to put in a performance here for a club that is in a right mess off the pitch. The loss to Dover on Monday meant they can no longer finish in the play-offs so there really is nothing to play for and they were poor in that game as it was. Bromley have drawn 3 of their last 4 so still seem to be trying and they beat Leyton Orient 5 games ago. They should be favs for this and 7/4 looks a huge price.
Hartlepool v Salford
Taking a bit of a chance here, but I am backing the home side. I just wonder if Salford will decide to concentrate on the play-offs given they are highly unlikely to catch Leyton Orient. If Orient go in front early on then Salford will know their number is really up and they wont want to be risking injuries ahead of the play-offs. Hartlepool aren't exactly ending the season in great form but they did beat Halifax on Good Friday. Team news could be key, but it might just pay to be ahead of the game here and have a small investment at a big price in the hope Salford have one eye on the play-offs.
Curzon Ashton v Spennymoor
Not that long ago Spennymoor were in poor form, but they have won 4 of their last 5 games and are setting themselves up nicely for the play-offs. They got a huge win against at the time league leaders Chorley on Easter Monday and they will be trying here as if they can overtake Brackley then they will have one less game in the play-offs. As I have mentioned a few times of late Curzon have stopped for the season based on their performances and odds against on the away side picking up another win is a big price.
Eastbourne v Concord
I really don't get the price of Concord here. I think the bookies are basing it on the fact they are basically certain of a play-off spot, but what they have missed is the fact that they can finish 4th or 5th and that would mean a home tie in the first round of the play-offs. Given how strong they have been at home this season that would be huge if they could overtake Bath and or Chelmsford. God knows where Eastbourne's 6-0 drubbing of Dartford came from given it had been a very long time since they last won prior to that. They then drew with Slough 1-1 on Monday which was a decent effort as well. They are safe now though and with Concord still having something to play for they just should be 9/2.
Woking v Gloucester City
I suspect if Gloucester had not come from 2 down to beat Chippenham 3-2 on Monday then Gloucester would not have been such a big price for this because they still would have been fighting for their survival. Fortunately for me and my fellow City supporters we are now safe for another season, but I think we can go out on a win. Our away form has been much stronger than our home form this term, but the key point is that Woking have nothing to play for. They can only finish 2nd now and I really can't believe that they won't be resting players ahead of the play-offs. Why would Alan Dowson risk his key players in a meaningless game a few days ahead of trying to win promotion? 21/5 looks a big price on an away win to me.

Some very sad news reached me this weekend when I was told that one of our members Woodys Way, had passed away over the Christmas period.
His real name was Graham, he had been ill for a while and his wife kindly let me know yesterday. I met Graham once while I was on holiday in Dorset, he had been a member of the PL since 2004.
Woody was a keen member of most of our competitions and never missed a TC in 14 years, he was completely blind and I once helped him set up some screen-reading software so he could read the sporting life by hovering his mouse over the words, it was amazing how he coped. In later years his lovely wife Janet read out the fixtures and posted his fancies.
As a mark of respect Woodys Way will be left in the latest tables for the duration of this mini-season.
Thanks, BH
 

 
 

 

 
 
 

Don’t think I’ve ever had them all draw before and at least I tipped up the draw in one of the games. If those 3 had held on we would be looking at a profit instead of a loss. Not a good end to the month but hopefully Saturday will be better.

50pts Double
Cambridge @ 1.80
Liverpool @ 1.10
Thanks
