ONCE BITTEN, LETS GIVE TWICE A TRY
REAGULAR READERS OF THIS BLOG (Hello Mum and Dad) will know that last week I got badly done by Forest and Bournmouth last week, which had more strange movements than an ETON Road song.
Still that aside I'm prepared to get involved in both these sides again, here is what I'm considering and my thoughts on all tonight's FA CUP Second round replays.
BASINGSTOKE V ALDERSHOT 3.5 3.25 2.2
In terms of League places these two sides are a million miles apart, but Basingstoke ran Aldershot close last time out and they won't fancy the trip out there. I would think ldershot would come through and the 2.16 on betfair could be worth taking when you find out what and how many players are actually going to be out. Sit on your money until then and maybe even after then.
BOURNMOUTH V BRISTOL ROVERS 1.91 3.3 4.3
Last week Bournmouth had a victory over Forest that had conspiracy theorists everywhere going ahem excuse me one moment. Still Bournmouth returned to normal busines son Saturday by getting tanked 4-0 at home to Port Vale and Bristol Rovers could be the side to spring a shock tonight. 4.3 with Betfred and Ladbrokes is a very generous price when you consider there was little between these two sides last time out. Bristol Rovers lost as well at the weekend, but there is no disgrace in losing to Hartlepool and Rovers look overpriced here, especially with key Bournmouth player James Hayter out.
Take small stakes on the Away win at 4.3 and the draw on 3.3.
CHESTER (2.25) Draw (3.26) Bury (3.2)
Nothing to really split these teams, Chester sit fourteenth, Bury eleventh, Chester have won their last two, Bury have one win and a defeat although that was against Wallsall so hard to count it. Hard to seperate them, Chester should win with home advantage though not one to get involved in.
19:45 Doncaster (1.53) Draw (3.75) Mansfield (7)
Hard to see anything but a home win here, Doncaster are finally finding their feet under new manager Driscoll who inherted a good young side from current Darlo boss Dave Penney. Donny are nine games unbeaten in all competitions, Mansfield meanwhile are not only a league below but have only one win in six and are struggling in League two.
Doncaster seem more than probable home winners, but 1.53 is too tight for me to get involved.
19:45 Leyton Orient (1.62) Draw (3.5) Torquay (6
Leyton Orient may be in the higher lague which is reflected in their price but you'd have to be crazy to take the 1.62 on a side with four wins all season, Torquay they also have four wins all seasons, it'll give you more headaches than a messy office christmas party.
19:45 Millwall (2.2) Draw (3.25) Bradford (3.25)
Millwall won in the league 2-0 last time which might tempt a lot of people, however Dean Windass will be back for Bradford and Millwall will miss influential winger Hackett, clear no bet.
19:45 Nottm Forest (1.17) Draw (7) Salisbury (18.5)
Check the team news first but if as expected Forest name an unchanged side then this could be the week to be on them, they were very impressive in defeating Crewe at the weekend and Tyson could cause havoc in the Salisbury defence. Worth taking a small interest on Forest to overcome a two goal handicap at 2.1 with stan james they have the firepower to win this one easy.
