Southend United  promotion    bet 3 65    ( hills / victor 12/1 )     Follow this league extremely closely watch ALL matches on DAZN.    Thought I would put it on my home forum rather than soccer.    York City  Forest Green Rovers Gateshead  all going backwards.   Only one top team in this  league champions elect Barnet.   Oldham and Rochdale doing OK but are no great shakes.   Southend on a run and are impressive offensively.  They are just outside the top 7 but should make it.   If they get to Wembley will have 20,000 fans against say 3/4,000 FGR.     Are they certs ? Of course not but believe me 20/1  ( just looked )  too big and by some way.  GL.

Even if they get into the playoffs they have to beat three other teams to get promoted. 20/1 seems about right to me.

Especially as they're likely to be away in the playoff quarters and semis too.

sadlers the clue was I couldn't place the bet. No market on here ( and if there was there would be no liquidity  and was I culled by 3 65 some time ago.  Did you see tuesdays national league results jamie ?  6 matches 6 aways

thanks jamie but I am rather anti bookie these days.  Only have accounts with a couple and don't plan on opening any more. Just put it up because I study this league in depth and the play offs are way more open than the betting suggests.  There's no quality of Notts County finishing 2nd this year that's for sure.

I threw a few quid at Coventry at 8,s for promotion about 5/6 weeks ago under the same theory

yeah the teams that have been up there all season can SOMETIMES be overated.  When my team ycfc got promoted to national league we finished 5th and then beat the 2nd away in the semi before beating the 7th in the final.

beat Oldham and still 20/1.  Bit surprised by that. (Gateshead lose their 6th match in a row )

Southend fan here. Wouldent put anyone off if u can get 16s or 20s. We have a few players coming back from injury at the right time. Think we are 6/4 chance to make the playoffs and 11/4 from there. Likely to take at least 20k to Wembley (had 8.4k last home match).

Drifter to 20/1 with Dones now, they are same price in shops if you're UK based.

devils hoping we ( ycfc )  don't play you in the semi.  The final would be a good advert for the league on the field and off.  We would take 10k  so  a 30k+  crowd.

4 of Gateshead fixtures   Forest Green ( away )  York ( home ) Boston ( away )  Hartlepool ( away )   Not the nicest.

@Howard. Yes a final against you guys would be a good advert for the league. We have a lot of bon ami with YCFC particularly as your chairman gave 10K to our survival fund and your club helped out in other ways. If we dont get promoted I hope it is YCFC (and my mum lives in North Yorkshire!)

Thanks devils. Be surprised if you don't finish above Gateshead but hope you finish 4th or 7th.  ( if we finish 2nd )

devils is the goalie a problem ? ( Hayes )  On the evidence of one of the goals at Boston  and Saturdays late leveller I would have concerns.
By:

When: 15 Apr 25 12:12
Hi Howard. Sorry for the late reply. Saturday was the first time I have seen Hayes play live although I have watched him on DAZN stream before. Hard to tell about the goal he conceded but the fact is we have kept very few clean sheets since he replaced the injured andeng-ndi.

Not sure we have much chance of the play offs now....it is so typical of Southend to win or draw away at the top sides and then lose to a team below us that has not won in ages ...usually a Saturday Afternoon 3pm kick off with a big crowd. (8600 there on Saturday) Perhaps thats the best betting angle ?!!

devils with other results still think you have a pretty decent chance.  Only watched the first 30 mins of Saturdays game but thought Solihull were way better than recent performances. Whether that's changing personel or not I don't know. I still think home fixtures against Braintree and Wealdstone plus away at Ebbsfleet should get good results though even the latter have improved.   Hopefully for you ( and first one me )  York (H) Hartlepool (A) and Boston (A)  is tough going for Gateshead.

They should recruit a few grannies from the old folks home to improve things in the final third. Can still pass Gateshead to death. Just need a goal in the match.  And two wins first.

33/1 Southend ( hills )  and Oldham ( 10's )  worth a little interest if you have bookie accounts

Post catching up today.   


But it could be worth a small investment in seventh-placed Southend winning promotion as they look much too big at 12-1. The Shrimpers struggled early in the campaign but eventually figured it out and have lost just twice over the last three months.

Impressively they kept clean sheets in each of their last four games and could be hitting form at the right time. If Southend can get past Rochdale they could have a decent chance.

thanks Howard I don't usually play on the footy but this post on the 23rd got me looking into it a bit closer and had a few bets on Southend and later Oldham not for fortunes but enough for me ,win or lose this is what the forum should be about , there is enough going on with the horses and other posters sharing knowledge could help others not so clued up on other events good luck if you got on .,I would never have looked at this type of bet tbh so it's a usefull and decent prices thanks again .

thanks foyles  I would have played myself but no betting never mind liquidity on here and the 2 bookies I still have accounts with were no good. Won't be opening any more bookie accounts. Of course it's a value thing.  I see Southend briefly touched 66/1 at one point. I would have greened up anyway in a final with my club ycfc we are much better since "Clubman of the Year"  Felix was moved from full back into midfield. But if it's an Oldham semi they are dangerous from set pieces. But we have something nobody has.  Ollie Pearce.

Good performance from Oldham. Southend will give them problems if that's the final. York were pitiful last night.
