We kicked-off the start of the season with 4 tips, all of which was home picked sides. Our tips were taken all the way as we hit a 50% strike-rate but at the same time incured a minor loss.
The dissapointing result of the day was Gillingham's 1-1 draw against Cheltenham which effectively was the difference between a 75% strike rate and a nice profit making day. That's how fine the line was on Saturday but we can safetly say that there have been bigger opening day gambling losses and we can be satisfied that we was right on the button.
Wycombe Wanderes handed us the biggest profit of the day with a double your money bet and they did not dissapoint. A resounding 2-0 victory over Morecambe was put safe after the 84th minute when Pitman secured the 3 points.
Chesterfield did not make an easy ending of their game against Barnet despite being in cruise control for most of the match.
A horror challenege on Barnet striker Steve Kabba saw Chesterfield's Davies sent off after 82 minutes leaving our tip vulnerable for the closing minutes.
Chesterfield however hung on to clinch the 3 points and land our 4/6 bet.
Crewe Alexandra had their chances against Hereford but failed to take several golden chances. Despite being bossed around in the game, this was one of our tips that slipped away as the game went on. On another day it could have been different but we will mark that down as a bad loss.
Our evalusation of the weekend is that we should have hit our 75% strike-rate target and in many views was slightly unlucky considering Gillingham's last 20 minute domination against Cheltenham.
We now move onto the Carling Cup in mid-week, particularly looking forward to some very exciting bet on Tuesday evening.
