BOOKMARK - WEEK 11
WELL, we've (or rather I've) done it again!
Last week Bookmark came up trumps, winning 155 for charity when I picked Man United, Lisburn Distillery and Newry City to win.
But I think this week that if I want to get some sort of winning streak going I'm going to have to make a few changes.
Firstly, I'm not going to back Newry, who I have done for a few weeks running, to beat Coleraine. I watched them in the friendly against Banbridge Town on Tuesday night and their back four looked very dodgy. Stephen Carson will rip them apart. Coleraine are priced at 8/5.
I can't back two of my other favourite betting sides, Lisburn Distillery or Cliftonville, because they meet at New Grovenor this week.
So instead I'm going to back Portadown to beat Ballymena at the Showgrounds. Tommy Wright must make one enforced change to his line-up for the visit of the Ports as midfielder Aidan Watson serves a one-match ban. Portadown, meanwhile, will be hoping that former NI international Andy Smith continues his goalscoring form after he opened his account last week. The Ports are 4/5.
Finally I'm choosing to go for Championship table toppers Watford, priced at 13/10, against 20th placed Crystal Palace. Palace have just changed manager with Neil Warnock taking over the reigns after Peter Taylor got the boot, but it doesn't seem to have made any difference to their fortunes.
Backing Coleraine, Portadown and Watford in a 20 treble will return 215 if successful. Prices given are only a guide; for a full price list please visit www.toals.co.uk or their branch at Scarva Street, Banbridge.
