komp this is great for posting odds from betexplorer. We can see last few matches and everything but I don't know how to do that

Anyway I fancy Shamrock at home. Great form on home ground and imo Dublin don't have chance here. Btw I'm not some expert for Irish league so I'll wait for some good infos and opinions about this match

[Cinny]

Waiting on shamrock from my selections on thursday for a neat double with Cobh..great home form and always perform well against the weaker teams in the league..

cheers bulit. Its all a bit experimental for now but give it a try on my 'how to post groovy odds' thread in this forum. Don't be scared to make mistakes etc as ..well i make plenty on the way. It's just a simple case of changing the website address in the simple code. I don't know what theyve got planned with this forum or how they plan to structure it and if divisional threads like this will be about again but feel free to post in a wee betexplorer snippet (or another site) in your threads just to aid folks. Or not. Up to yourselves. I too think it works well and i'll be prone to popping in WW forum and adding one to the odd thread now and again.



0-0 ht i see Cinny. for you

[Cinny]

[allthethings]

I agree Cinny the week aheads look very drawish does it not !!

[Cinny]

indeed im thinking 3 draws out of interest, Bohs-Derry, Cork-Drogs and Shamrock-Pats..very hard to judge..

any odds yet for Division 1? some nice games in it

[charly1]

And I'm thinking and not only thinking, but preparing myself to place a large bet on a First Division treble, as soon as my locals come up with an offer, since I expect a higher prices than currently offered.

Finn Harps - Shelbourne @ 4/7 Paddy Power
Wexford Youths - Cobh Ramblers @ 4/6
Kilkenny City - Dundalk @ 8/15

I 'll try to write some more about it.

[Cinny]

my thoughts exactly i'll have a write up soon myself but i will also be tanking them 3 teams

Cobh and Dundalk are promotion chasers and I can't see them having serious problems in next games against bottom holders.
Both teams have some difficulties only when they play each other, and against taems with some quality as Finn Harps and Limerick are.
Wexford and Kilkenny are the worst sides in the league and I believe they're not capable to make an upset.

Finn Harps are Division One Hottest side.
Last time they lost vs. Cobh on May 25th, and since then they played 9 league games without loss, managed to take 7 victories and two draws.
They also remain clean sheet in 7 of these games, and Dundalk is the only side which scores against them in last six.
Impressive record which mustn't be spoiled against mediocre Shelbourne, one of the worst guests in the league.
Nine games on the road for Shelbourne this year and only three draws with 6 defeats.
Two of their three victories was against league worst sides,mentioned duo
Wexford and Kilkenny.

Finn Harps and Shelbourne played once these season, Finn won 2-1, while their second match was postponed.

Need to check squads, but before Friday it wont be possible.

Finn Harps @ 8/13 - Team with the best form in the league and have conceded 1 goal in 6 games. They've won maybe around 6/7 out of their last 7/8. Had league leaders Dundalk on the ropes last Thursday night leading until areound the 80th minute when Dundalk scraped a draw. Couple Finn Harps form with the fact that Shelbourne havent won once on their travels and you'd fancy a comprehensive home win.

Cobh Ramblers @ 8/11 - Although Cobh have been in superb form at home they have also been grinding out results on most away days despite drawing 0-0 with Athlone 2 weeks ago when they were on top for most of the game despiute being reduced to 10 men midway through the second period. they have drawn 5 games away from home but i think they'll win Saturday more to do with the shocking form of their opponents Wexford Youths. Their only win at home all year was March the 18th incidently at home to Cobh however the progression of both teams since then is very different. Wexfords only points in their last 7/8 games have been an away win against Kilkenny and an away draw against Athlone. Cobh will want to keep chasing Dundalk for top spot and know that only a win will be good enough.

Dundalk @ 8/15 - a simple case of top vs bottom. Bar defeat to Cobh, their only of the season Dundalk have been in super form. Kilkenny on the other hand have yet to win on home soil all year racking up 4 draws and 5 losses which speaks for itself. With Cobh biting at their heels Dundalk know they must win.

Finn Harps 8/13
Cobh 8/11
Dundalk 8/15

Will simply tank these 3 teams and hope for the best as their form is absolutely flawless and ive had a good bit of joy over the last while with Div 1 teams. Good luck all and hopefully come Saturday at 10 we'll all be

NB..out of interest in the 3 big games im going to do 3 draws for an interest..Cork-Drogs, Shamrock-Pats and Bohs-Derry
