Beat the Bookies: Week 5
By: Rob Sedgwick
Date: 06/09/2012
LAST week saw a small overall loss - but for Robin Van Persie's late show it would have been a tidy profit. The Scunny-to-lose banker reaped its 100% record so far this season. The bookies are beginning to have sussed Scunny out now though and the prices on Iron defeats are dropping as rapidly as the team.

There's not much football this weekend with the International fixtures dominating the schedules. Unless you follow international football they're well worth avoiding as a betting choice with upsets hard to forecast.
Town are favourites to beat Forest Green. The odds look just about right, so we'll have to look elsewhere this week as well.
