Anybody any idea by Northampton who lie 3rd in the table and on the back of three straight wins are not favourites to beat a struggling Stockport?

pretty sure I know why

odds came in for Stockport when the referee was announced, Darren Handley

this guy is from a town near Greater Manchester, Stockport is just on the other side of it, regional bias, friends who are fans, neighbours, family etc.

he has reffed 8 of their games in the past, Stockport have won 4, drawn 4, lost 0.

he's also reffed this fixture before, it was 1-1 but he sent off a Northampton player, he's sent off 3 players in those Stockport games he's reffed, all 3 going to the other team.

probably has family who are supporters of that club.

they don't have VAR down there to help them out with contentious decisions, you're much less scrutinised.


if that's not the explanation, than the only other logical explanation would be team news filtering in to those in the know who then piled into the away team.

Stockport have been smashed into several times already this season, notably into 1.83 away at Doncaster.

Must be playing better than results suggest but like you couldn’t understand today’s price.
