BOOKMARK - WEEK SEVEN
RIGHT. I've had enough of this losing nonsense.
We haven't had a winner on Bookmark since last season and it's really starting to annoy me now. People are giving me stick in the office, then again that's nothing new.
I'm going to back Newry to beat Dungannon this week first of all. I've seen Dungannon play twice this season already and to be honest, neither of their performances have impressed me. Newry on the other hand were unbeaten in all but one of their CIS Cup games - last week's game with Portadown with both teams already qualified. Newry are priced at 7/4.
Speaking of Portadown, I'm going to back them at 10/11 to beat Crusaders this week. The Ports won't win the Irish League this season, however there's a fair chance that they'll be in the top four because their best 11 players are probably the second, maybe third best side in the league. It's when they get injuries that a lack of depth comes through and that's when they start to struggle (being a Glenavon fan I now feel filthy for saying that.) Crusaders will give them a game, but they'll struggle to get anything from it.
Finally, in England the in-form team at the minute are League One side Leeds United. Played six, won six - there are quite a few Premiership sides who would have loved that sort of form (maybe if Chelsea had maintained that sort of winning streak Jose would still be in a job). They face Swansea City, who will be missing a couple of key players after picked up injuries in midweek. However, they do sit fourth in the table. Leeds are priced at 4/5.
A 20 treble backing Newry, Portadown and Leeds will return 189 if successful. For a full price list try toals.co.uk or their branch at Scarva Street, Banbridge.
