Beat the Bookies: Week 18

By: Rob Sedgwick
Date: 24/11/2006

LAST week's new strategy of backing Town to win following the arrival of Alan Buckley has not paid dividends yet, but it is only a matter of time - trust me!

Home > 2006-2007 Season > Beat the Bookies > Week 18


This week for the match against Accrington at home Bet365 offer Evens for a Grimsby win. Accrington's recent form is appalling, I know Town's is hardly brilliant either but the improvement under Buckley in the three games so far has been tangible so I still maintain that the form book largely goes out of the window for the Mariners. Three points is only a matter of time!

For the even more optimistic punters out there Bet365 are also offering 11/4 for Grimsby to win by two or more goals, which is well worth considering, taking into account the return of Buckley and the availability of additional players to him for this game.

Finally Arsenal's chances of winning the title have evaporated, and they never do very well at Bolton anyway, having lost on their last three visits. Bet365 offer 12/5 for a Bolton win, which looks more than generous.

Recommended Bets

  • 1. Grimsby to beat Accrington by two or more goals (11/4).
