Brackley scored, had it disallowed and a player sent off all within the space of a few minutes. They could only hold out for a draw. Annoying as they've gone and won 5-0 away at Guiseley, tonight.
A 10pt loss on the weekend and a 20.29pt loss overall.
Good price for Brackley that, Southport had been very strong at home until recently, but it looks like they are starting to fall away, they got beat at home by Blyth a couple of weeks ago.
Who do you think will win the league punter?
I backed Fylde at the start of the season and they were looking good upto Christmas, but its gone a bit pear shaped since unfortunately.
Also backed Dorking in the National League South, which was looking like a bad decision until a few weeks before Christmas, but they are absolutely flying now and hopefully it continues until the end of the season
I honestly dont know who will win the league. My heart hopes Gateshead but Brackley now have the fire power and have a great team spirit. I cant call it.
I would of said Kidderminster Harriers 4 weeks ago, they were the best team i'd seen in the league and there was nothing unusual about that performance in the cup against West Ham. But a key player suffered a serious injury since and they seem to have derailed the last two games. A poor loss at bottom of the table Farsley and a thumping at leaders Gateshead.
That's the thing about this level, just one key player injured or leaving/joining a club can make a massive difference in form either way.
I dont know what happened to Fylde this season. They spent the money and were flying but maybe they got a bit carried away with themselves? Still in 4th though and they have just bought in a new manager. A respected one who has proven statistics in non league. They could string a run of wins together again soon so i'll be looking at their odds each week.
Good luck with your Dorking bet, in a great position and i hope they go on and win it for you. What price did you get?
I dont know much about the Southern League. I did say to a few from Hereford that geologically we'd be slightly better off playing in the Southern but was told to fuck off by them all. They didn't care about the travel, the beer is a couple of quid a pint cheaper up North
Fair point.
I've looked at this weekends fixtures and odds. I'm chancing my imaginary money on two DNB's.
BLYTH SPARTANS DNB @ 3.2 (Paddy P's). At home to Chester. Not a winner by any means but 3.2 for a DNB at home? Against a team you can go above with a game in hand if you win?
Its a bottom end of the table clash so anything can happen but i watched Chester a couple of weeks ago and they were dire. A couple of big 6ft 7ers were there only threat from corners but everywhere else on the pitch, very light weight. I dont get the odds. Maybe they're based on the fact Chester are due to win one after so many losses on the trot. Maybe i've missed some non league news. I haven't been reading.
GLOUCESTER DNB @ 4 (Paddy P's). Home to league leaders Gateshead. Gloucester are better than their league position. Unbeaten in 5 and just one goal conceded in the last 3 games. With Brackley on their tails the pressure is on Gateshead
