Been reading up on the Dumbarton vs Shire game and im getting more confident about my East Stirling bet by the minute, thats a worrying sign!

Shires record under new manager McInally is as follows...

P7 W2 D2 L3 F 6 A 9 Pts 8

Clean sheets: 3

The clean sheets is significant, as it was pointed out on P&B that before McInally came in, they only had 2 clean sheets all season!

Dumbarton are going into this having scored 1 goal in thier last 4 games.

Shire have not conceaded a goal in the last 3 and have 7 points from 9.

Dumbarton are missing Fergus Tiernan, who is a key creative player for them in midfield and him missing is a boost for Shire.

These two played a few weeks ago and by accounts, Shire were unlucky to draw 1-1, with Dumbarton scoring an equaliser late on, which the majority of thier own fans agreed was an undeserved point.

Im wishing i hadnt read up about this game, it's just tempting me to put even more on the shire. Think im going to and also put a small wager on 0-0.

you must have been sick last weekend space cat?the same think happened me a couple of years ago....i recieved a phone call at around 9.30 am 1 sat morning near the end of the season.....the game was in my local irish leauge......ill name no names or the clubs involved....but i was told this certain game was fixed......i was told to put everything i had on this certain team.....but i still had my doubts as this team was playing very badly at the time.....so i chickened out......by god i was so sick that night after that certain team won by 4 or 5 goals.......i could have cried.....i missed a big chance.....but it showed me that certain games are def fixed......my local bookie suspended the odds on this certain game around 1pm that day.....the ammount of cash that was being put on this team was unreal....

yea city fan the shire could win ok tomorrow.....they are starting to hit a bit of form.....i picked them out last saturday as my best outsider to beat arbroath.....and they won ok....i was looking at them tomorrow but i think a draw could be on the cards there......but i hope they win for you city fan........

[parksy]

im away to read up on a few games again and maybe get my mind made up on who else im going to bet on tomorrow......but raith to me are the banker of the day.......im totaly confident on them....i think they will win very very easy tomorrow.....i have a lot of money riding on them tomorrow.....i cant see them letting me down......well i hope not anyway....

[AnothrSpacecat]

raith then. maybe ill follow you and go with raith and my bet livi, in what should be a more competitive game.

perhaps the raith and county double? county, county fans and the mentality of those currently at the club is something im well aware of, they will want to win tomorrow, even if they go behind. its one title party the beath wont be spoiling.

4/7 county and 4/7 raith on my coupon, thats worth just under £50 for my £20, dare I throw in Livi to make the £100? might aswell, £20 is my usual stake on the weekend footy these days as the season winds down, two short priced chances and a fair bet on the lions.

hmm.. need to ponder over it. im near certain to have a treble on now getting greedier with every sentence.

would rochdale give me a better treble?

[AnothrSpacecat]

Suppose if we're looking for ties with possible beer money riding on it, perhaps this is Berwicks turn.

Such a farse this betting lark isnt itg!

[parksy]

ive made up my mind.......my 4th bet of the weekend is raith minus 1 at 6-4 ross county minus 1 at 13-8 in a double with sporting bet.........rating 5...........i think this double has a decent chance.......

[AnothrSpacecat]

Actually PArksy I cant take Raith or Ross County tomorrow, I'm not convinced either side will be 100% focused on the job at hand.. No doubt theyre playing the leagues worse two teams though.

Could Queens v Ayr be a possible win for the Honest Men now the QP season is over?

[parksy]

my 5th bet raith htft 6-4 ross county htft 6-4 in a double with paddy power......rating 5......i also think this bet has a decent chance.......

[parksy]

my 6th and last bet is a 4 team accum......which im going to do with my local bookmaker as he has the best prices available now......raith 8-13 ross county 8-13 hamilton 4-11 and celtic 1-3.......i think this bet has a very good chance of winning....rating 8.......THATS ME FINISHED BETTING FOR THIS WEEKEND.....6 BETS IN TOTAL PLUS MY WEE FUN CORRECT FORCASTS BETS ON RAITH.....

[AnothrSpacecat]

I'm sure Raith lost to Forfar when they were in a similar relegated position as Berwick are now, with Raith then looking to the play-offs. To many possibilities for me here.

As for Ross County, I think the players will be more concerned about the party after the game than the game itself, County lost on the day they were presented the 3rd Division trophy a few years ago as the celebrations in Dingwall had started too early

Both are no bets for me but I'll be cheering you on

[parksy]

if raith dont win tomorrow ive nothing to get back....ive them in all my 6 bets......roll on tomorrow at 3pm.....thats what i say......

[parksy]

yea space cat who knows.....its a gamble backing any team....bottom can beat top......you can only bet on who you fancy....and thats it......some you win....some you lose....thats the gamble mate....that queens v ayr game i wouldnt have a clue mate......i wouldnt touch it with a 40 foot barge pole.......

[parksy]

if im not on tomorrow the BEST OF LUCK TO EVERYBODY WITH THEIR SELECTIONS.......

[AnothrSpacecat]

right, i need to get some sleep, ill be back up in a few hours to see whats what.

ill lie in bed and think about how tired the partick players will be feeling, or maybe theyll be pissed off with themselves still? will the county players be pissed right now? will forfar lose AGAIN?

is 8/11 on dundee a fair price? how many goals will falkirk score v gretna
