    If anyone is interested, I've gone for a BTTS+ this evening - I'm due one, having been a single goal away TWICE in the past three weeks, from winning £1600 and £1100 respectively. I go for a pretty straightforward formula, looking for games where there is a team with an edge, and where both teams have been in games where goals haven't been shy.

    So, here we go:

    BLACKPOOL v Rochdale + BTTS

    Blackpool have started the season pretty well all things considered, and have proven that they can score goals despite losing Brad Potts to us. They do concede however, and Rochdale have the players to grab a goal this evening, but they are poor travellers, and I expect Blackpool to come out on top: prediction Blackpool 2-1 Rochdale.

    Oldham v PETERBOROUGH + BTTS

    Peterborough are looking really strong so far this season, and proved some credentials by beating title favourites Wigan 3-2 at the weekend. I backed them in that game, and also BTTS, and will be doing so again this evening. They score for fun; Oldham are poor at home but do score goals, so it's arguably my banker for this evening: prediction Oldham 1-3 Peterborough

    Morecambe v LUTON + BTTS

    I toyed this one for a while, as Luton have let me down a few times this season, but I'm giving them another chance. I feel they will be too strong for Morecambe; that being said, that's why I've put them in my BTTS bet - when they lose at home, it's generally by the odd goal and I think it will be again tonight: prediction Morecambe 1-2 Luton

    BRADFORD v Fleetwood + BTTS

    Again, I hummed and ahh'd about this, as Fleetwood on their day could probably beat anyone in the league, but so far, they've been really inconsistent, and taken a few good beatings away from home. Bradford look solid, but do keep shipping the odd goal. Fleetwood will score, but Bradford should come out on top: prediction Bradford 2-1 Fleetwood

    £5 returns £995 with Betfred.

    Good luck.

    Looks decent and following the sacred mantra of never betting on your own team!

    £5 on sky bet, returning £982.

    I'll hire a PI to find out your real identity and buy you a pint with the winnings if it comes in.

    I liked the look of that also, just had a sneaky fiver on with coral returning £1135.46.

    Best of luck mate.

    The only thing I really hate about the BTTS bets, is that the cashout feature isn't available. Like I said, a fair few times I've been a goal away from
    Wow, that's value hunting. Good luck guys!

    All btts
    Chesterfield v yeovil - chessy towing a bit but should get an uplift from legend returning
    Lincoln v Barnet - 2 evenly matched sides just realised that means 0-0
    Portsmouth v Bristol rovers local derby which means rovers will be trying goals in this
    Warsaw v Charlton - plenty of goals with these 2
    Burton v villa - Burton always raise there game against midland sides and we've seen how good villa are going forward
    Bradford v Fleetwood - last choice Bradford unusually leaking goals
    We will see

    Slightly concerned that we haven't seen ONE goal amongst all four games at this stage of the evening, however, remain hopeful - as the games drag on, tired legs become more commonplace, and a few goals should fly in. Fingers crossed anyway...

    Last 15 minutes is when a lot of the goals tend to go in - that being said, I tend to like to have at least two games with goals in at this stage.

    Betfair lets you cash out on BTTS +

    I should know because I've been paying them a fiver or more each weekend for the last 5 years. Like your reasoning with the fixtures and Rochdale were a good shout in previous seasons, they haven't been in the goals so much this time round.
