Beat the Bookies: Week 21
By: Rob Sedgwick
Date: 16/12/2010
LAST week once again saw both bets lose, but since one of them was Grimsby to be defeated it was a tenner well spent! It's hard to find a decent bet in any division this week but here's the best we can find.
Home > 2010-2011 Season > Beat the Bookies > Week 21
SUNDERLAND v Bolton - Sunderland have won this fixture three years running
Blackburn v WEST HAM - the manager sacking could work either way but we think Blackburn could go backwards rather than forwards
Birmingham v NEWCASTLE - the Geordies have some good away results this season
HEREFORD v Macclesfield
TORQUAY v Rotherham
Bury v STEVENAGE
CAMBRIDGE Utd v Darlington
GRIMSBY v Forest Green
Forest Green's recent record is poor away from home
GATESHEAD v Hayes
