Odds William Hill

I've had five units on Bristol Rovers DNB at the general 10/11. Rovers are beginning to put together the run their players are capable of - althoguh probably too late for a play-off push. They've only one defeat in seven, although they can sometimes fail to find the net hence I'm discounting the draw.

Southend were apparently 'disppointing' in losing at home to Aldershot on Tuesday and are quietly slipping away from the automatic promotion points and apparently looked nervous against us.

In fairness team news favours Southend, but form favours Rovers.

I've also gone into the DNB market for Hills' 13/10 on Oxford. Cheltenham and Oxford are both full strength, but Cheltenham are wobbling with four defeats on the trot, and their two vicories in their last eight were both games they's expect to win.

Oxford only two defeats in eighteen, and the most recent at Bradford when they went down to ten early on. They do draw a lot though, so I want to discount that outcome.

Good luck TC
I keep forgetting about the DNB, i looked for a price on Oxford +1 last night, it was too short though. I think they'll get something there today too.

Thanks Punter

I've also topped some of my anteposts this morning. Oxford are 7/2 for promotion and heading in the right direction. Take away the top three and no one seems to be putting together any sort of run, but Oxford have at least been grinding out results and I can see them finising comfortably in the top seven. I reckon they'll qualfy for the play-offs and then slip to around 5/2. I think the current price is on their seventh place, not their good recent form.

Also Dagenham at just under evens to be relegated. On paper they look to me to have the toughest run-in. I know relegation battles are as much about guts as quality, but I do think the fixture list gives the Daggers a disadvantage to start with.

Finally, Jack Midson as top scorer. He's joint top at the moment along with Barnet's MacLeod, who has gone off the boil, a couple ahead of the pack. Misdon is on form (5 in his last 6) and looks decent value to me at 15/8.

Sadly, though, my L2 anteposts this season look like falling short - I think I went too big too early. Hopefully, unless I have a dire next six weeks, my match bets will just about keep me above water as far as L2 goes.

I also keep forgetting about dnb...I will be having a good go at those next season.I had just done B Rovers 1-0,2-0,2-1 and a saver on 0-0 on betfair when I saw your post last night TC.The dnb looks good to me.

So far as oxford being 5-2 in the play-offs is concerned I think it may well depend on whether Crawley are in there.If they are then they may be as low as 9/4 due to bookies liabilities on them...in which case Oxford may be 11-4 with 1 or 2.

however,backing them now at 7-2 is almost a bet that cant go far wrong.worst case scenario is gills and crewe win and oxford lose...
If oxford win and gills fail then youve got a position.........I wouldnt put anyone off a small bet on crewe for prom seeing as they play at hereford and oxford or gills may drop points...

good luck TC

Taken Wimbledon who seem to have stabilised & won last 2 @ home. Taken Oxford as Cheltenham are seeming to be levelling out
