The classic under-estimation.I'm in total agreement with Komp on Accrington. Accy is a death hole, Darlo will get one hell of a fight and if they underestimate Accrington they will lose. That's not seeing a penny of my money.
Wrote this this afternoon in a hurry as I won't be around tomorrow. These are the games I could be interested in:
08 Aug 19:45 Bury v Chester 7/5 9/4 8/5 - Should be an away win on paper. Don't think I can bring myself to trust either of them though.
08 Aug 19:45 Hereford v Lincoln City 1/1 23/10 9/4 - Home win. Strong
start on Saturday, won comfortably a game where they were far from on
top. At home they'll be a different kettle of fish against a Lincoln
side I expect to struggle this season, and one who struggled against the
terminally bad Notts County at the weekend.
08 Aug 19:45 Macclesfield v Hartlepool 13/10 23/10 17/10 - Can Macc
bounceback from a 4-0 defeat? Both sides have lost key players over the
summer, both looking to bounceback from defeats on Saturday. On paper I
think Macc who were battered by Darlington look v.weak. In contrast
Hartlepool (missing two penalties) were mugged by Swindon and IMO are as
good as the Darlo side which spanked Macc on Saturday.
08 Aug 19:45 Mansfield v Milton Keynes Dons 6/4 9/4 6/4 - I tipped
Mansfield as a potential playoff side, but I'm not sure you'll see too
many 6/4's about MK Dons this season.
Must admit I like the look of Hartlepool given they were unlucky at the weekend and Macclesfield are poor. Possibly Hereford too.
Also wrote this on the Swindon v Barnet game which I'll be at tomorrow night.
They really should batter us horribly but bare in mind our away record against the 4 promoted teams last season was P4 W2 D2. Swindon should be promotion candidates.
Grinding out draws we can do. Defending we can do, it's attacking we're shit at. Also consider that Swindon were battered for 90mins at Hartlepool and were saved by a string of great saves by their goalkeeper, who also saved 2 penalties. Swindon are IMO horribly overated in this division and on saturday although we were less interesting than drying paint for 60 mins as soon as we changed the front 2 we looked dangerous, we'll have plenty of pace on the counter attack if Pf drops the front 2 from saturday.
For me odds of around 1/2 are an un-necessary risk, no bet.
