Darran Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 (edited) A small profit made thanks to Hartlepool on Good Friday which when you tip up a few at big prices is certainly the most you can hope for and anything after that is very much a bonus. The weather is set to be pretty awful on Monday so we may well lose matches or even see abandoned matches like the Dulwich game I went to on Friday afternoon which shouldn't even have started. At the moment I have 3 bets although more maybe added Sunday night/Monday morning. Torquay v Woking A relegation 6 pointer and the home side have given themselves half a chance of staying up after a win at Chester on Friday. That came off the back of a win against Leyton Orient and a draw at Solihull. They are 7 points from safety and 10 points behind Woking, but they have a game in hand over them and they are certainly in better form than Woking at the moment. Woking have picked up just 2 points in their last 8 games and although they were a bit unlucky not to get a point against Macclesfield on Friday their two draws came against teams in the play-offs at the moment Boreham Wood and Wrexham. That tends to suggest they up their game against the better sides, but then play poorly against the teams they need to be picking up points against. Their away form has also been shocking this season and they have won just 3 on their travels the last of which came back on October 3rd at Chester. Now Torquay have only won 3 at home, but at least in their last 8 games at home they have won 2 drawn 2 and lost 4 so their is more promise there. They were also unfortunate to lose to Sutton in their last home game. That last minute winner from Macclesfield would have been heartbreaking for them and with Torquay having a comfortable afternoon at Chester I think they look a good bet to win this. Marathon go 67/50 about a home win. FCUM v York I wrote about FCUM's home form when tipping them up to beat Bradford in their last home game and they duly won 4-0 although Bradford did end up with just 9 men on the pitch. Even so you can't not be impressed by FCUM's home record which is the complete opposite of their away form and they lost again on Saturday on their travels. York should get themselves into the play-offs, but they have been so inconsistent especially for the squad they have. They have only won 3 of their last 10 games and away from home they have picked up just one point in their last 4 which came at struggling Tamworth. This game has been priced up by the odds compilers just looking at the league table and not by taking into account how strong FCUM have been at home. There is no way they should be as big as 23/10 (Marathon) to pick up another 3 points at home. Stourbridge v Stafford Stourbridge are another side who have had a very busy schedule in the Evo-Stik Northern Premier and have played 7 games since March 13th. They have won just two of those as well and have had a pretty disappointing season given they were one of the fancied sides pre-season. Stafford have been in good form and suffered their first loss in 8 games on Saturday when losing to Grantham. They should be fresher going into this game as they have played 2 games less than their hosts since March 13th and that along with the respective form of both teams make the away side a bet at 111/50 (Marathon) for me. Torquay 2.5pts @ 67/50 with Marathon FCUM 1pt @ 23/10 with Marathon Stafford 1pt @ 111/50 with Marathon Edited March 31, 2018 by Darran sammydubs, Mindfulness and Gidds 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darran Posted April 1, 2018 Author Share Posted April 1, 2018 Hednesford v Rushall Olympic Adding a 4th bet and another one from the Evo-Stik Northern Premier and I am pretty keen on the away side. Rushall are in great form with just two defeats in their last 10 games and they have won 4 on the bounce including beating likely champions Altrincham on Saturday. Hednesford on the other hand are bang out of form having won just one in 8 and they have lost 5 in that time.The were well beaten by Witton on Saturday and if Rushall can back up the Alty performance than they look a big price at 21/10 with Betway and BetVictor. Rushall 1.5pts @ 21/10 with BetVictor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
