Beat the Bookies: Week 37

By: Rob Sedgwick
Date: 20/04/2012

LAST week was a mini-disaster with all five tips losing, but we're still in profit and looking to fight another day.,

Home > 2011-2012 Season > Beat the Bookies > Week 37

Championship Tip

Reading v Crystal Palace - away win (10.0, Matchbook). Job done for Reading, yes the title would be nice, but the "hangover" could have an effect.

League One Tip

MK Dons v Sheffield Utd - home win (2.86, SMarkets). Sheffield Utd are on a good run but they've mainly been playing the weaker sides.

League Two Tip

Hereford v Northampton - home win (2.5, 188 Bet). Hereford need this win more than Northampton. At this time of year the bottom clubs manage to get the points from somewhere.

Blue Square South Tip

Woking v Truro - away win (8.0, Bet Victor). Like Reading a "hangover" result.
