Weekend Review

A magical day is a superb way to sum it up, it had the usual solid start and by 30 minutes we was already in profit with 3 out of 5 winning.

Barrow scored the first goal of the day through Walker after 12 minutes and never looked back. They went on to win 3-0 and had the game tied up by the 47th minute after Wiles scored their third goal.

By half-time it was clearly evident we were ready to target our first full clean sweep and a 100% strike-rate however the only concern was Tamworth who were losing to struggling Histon, that's where the drama soon came later.

In the meantime Chelmsford City scored after 51 minutes through Higgins who scored his 6th goal in 6 games, though this was to be the only team leading that kept us concerned throughout the game as Chelmsford managed to finish the game 1-0

Shrewsbury City made light work of Northampton Town, a team we knew was there for the taking for several weeks. A superb 3-1 victory landed a home win at even money, nicely done.

It was a similar story for Port Vale who landed the best odds of the day with a 3-0 victory away to Macclesfield. The 5/4 on Port Vale was lapped up by all of us at Firerfoxx HQ and we was never really troubled, Port Vale will certainly be a team to keep tabs on.

So the drama came in the Histon/Tamworth match where at half-time Tamworth needed to overcome a 1-0 deficit. It looked unlikely until Lee Wooton handled deliberately in the area giving Kyle Perry the chance to equalise which changed the whole dynamics of the game.

Tamworth had 30 minutes to score the winning goal which again looked unlikely as the clock ticked fastly to the closing minutes

It was was of those classic Firefoxx moments as Scott Brown scored an 89th minute winner to land all 5 of our tips.

I would certainly like to echo what Firefoxx said in the live scores centre at the end of the match, that our team has worked extremely hard to get into a position like this. We have made radical changes over the summer and have invested in a state of the art system that gives us readings on fixtures.

In our last 3 betting sessions we now have a record of played 11, won 10, lost 1. A day like this is fantastic for our team who put in hours of work and it is certainly a proud day for everyone involved with Firefoxx football tips.

I'd also like to give a special mention to our form and results co-ordinator Steve Melville who has really changed our mind-set this season with a number of factors. This has definately made a huge impact on our tips and results this year, so a big thankyou to Steve. So on we go to next week, it certainly is exciting times here.
