City v Bohs tomorrow.

Bohs win 8/11 and Bohs over 1.5 at 11/10 based on City being poor and away teams will do well post break.

We're back!! One bet this weekend, we had fancied Shels at evens but those odds were crushed. Bohs potentially a bet on Sunday.

We had tipped Rovers -1.75 on the weekend football stopped so the game didn't go ahead and we're even more confident now at a better line of -1.5. Early table toppers Shamrock Rovers host 3rd from bottom Harps. This should be a straight forward win for Rovers and make it 6 wins from 6 on Saturday at 5pm. Rovers beat current Champions Dundalk 3-2 last game before lockdown and before lockdown Dundalk beat Harps 4-0 away so on paper this should be a 4+ goal win for Rovers. We think one or two players left Harps during lockdown elsewhere but can't find confirmation of this.

Rovers -1.5 @ 1.85 (General/Bet365/Asian) - Medium Stake

Paddy Power doing Double winning 1st goalscorer odds if they go onto to score a 2nd goal for the Dundalk v St Pats Friday and Cork v Bohs Sunday.

Can't say I'd be fancying much in either in that department, maybe Danny Mandriou at 9/2.

Early table toppers Shamrock Rovers host 3rd from bottom Harps. This should be a straight forward win for Rovers and make it 6 wins from 6 tomorrow. Rovers beat current Champions Dundalk 3-2 two weeks ago and last week Dundalk beat Harps 4-0 away so on paper this should be a 4+ goal win for Rovers.
Dundalk host an inconsistency Pats side who've 3 losses and 2 wins this season but still find themselves sitting in 4th spot. Dundalk won't want any more light between themselves and Rovers in the table in this early stage, only issue here is the game is on TV which normally turns into very cagey matches. Dundalk's new signing - Nathan Oduwa should be eligible to start.
In what looks like a very new/young UCD team, they've started the season off in not the best of manners following relegation last season losing last time out to Drogheda 5-1. While Longford beat Drogheda 1-0 away last time out, on paper this should be an easy Longford win. Longfords League game on Saturday and their midweek Cup game were both cancelled so they will be fresh and raring to go. UCD being priced up in their games to date on the merit they're the newly relegated team but in truth this should be a 4/6 shot on Longford.

Rovers -1.75 @ 1.70 (Bet365/Asian) - Medium Stake
Dundalk -1 @ 1.85 (Bet365/Asian) - Medium Stake
Longford Town -0.5/Win @ 2.00 (General/Bet365/Asia) - Small/Medium Stake

Longford game was postponed

Bad week last week with two losers from two - going with just the one bet this weekend on Saturday.
Longford two wins from two, should be continuing this form on Saturday. Bray, beat a poor Wexford team who had two first teamers missing. Aido was at the Bray -v- Wexford game and mentioned how poor Bray were. Longford on the other hand, even at this early stage had a big six pointer win away to Drogheda last weekend. This is a 1.80 shot imo.

Longford Town -0.5/Win @ 2.00 (General/Bet365/Asia) - Medium Stake

Gavin "shels"

Both losers

Good start to this seasons bets last Friday/Monday, two bets for this weekend, both Premier Div bets.
Bohs make the long trip up to the Brandywell aiming to make it three wins in a row, while Derry got lucky with a late goal for a draw against Harps last time out. Derry will have fresh legs with their game on Monday being called off, while Bohs went out 2-0 winners at home to Sligo on Monday.
Cork are sitting at the bottom of the Premier Div table with no points and no goals.Cork City have won just 2 of their 13 games played since Neale Fenn took over as manager last August. Harps will have fresh legs after their game on Monday got called off due to snow. Few experienced signings for Harps may prove them a difficult team to break down at times this season while Cork have a new look team of young players and loanees.

Bohs +0.25 @ 1.80 (Bet365/Asia) - Small/Medium Stake

Finn Harps +0.25 @ 1.75 (Bet365/Asia) - Small Stake

Good start to the season on Friday with a Small/Med & Small winner (Small loss too). Monday sees 5 Premier games.
Early table toppers Shamrock Rovers travel to 7th placed Waterford. Rovers may be missing Burke who scored 5 in their 6-0 win on Friday, but new signing Rory Gaffney from Salford may be available. Rovers will want to keep their momentum going tomorrow night in preparation for an early season match against Champions Dundalk.
Pats host Derry in what should be an even game, home advantage should work in Pats favour. A lot of new bodies in both sides, but Derry lost a few of their better players and looking to be taking longer to gel.
May be a bet inplay on Dundalk, but -2 line is slightly too large to be tipping, ideally wait for -1.5 inplay.

Shamrock Rovers -1 Asian @ 1.95 (Bet365/Asia) - Small Stake

St. Pats -0.25 @ 2.00 (Bet365/Asia) - Small Stake

First proper set of bets for the season.
Shamrock Rovers into their first home game after a 1-0 win against Dublin rivals Bohs. Having seen Cork City host Shels last Friday, I can safely say Cork will struggle this season especially in the early stages until their team gel more. Cork didn't have one decent chance during the whole 90 mins against newly promoted Shels. Rovers team strengthened over the close season and they'll be looking for more silverware this season.
St. Pats were unlucky by all accounts against Waterford on Friday with a stonewall peno turned down and Waterford new stopper Brian Murphy making some important saves. Sligo made a bad start to their league campaign by losing to Finn Harps who needed a playoff win to not be relegated last season and are firmly tipped to struggle again this season.
Cabo/Bray Unders is solely based on the pitch at Stradbook. Pictures from last Saturday show the pitch was in a bad state after a rugby match. Weather has been bad in Dublin since last Saturday with a lot of rainfall so the pitch will probably not have improved much.

Shamrock Rovers -1 Euro or -1.5 Asian @ 1.90 (Bet365/Asia/General) - Small/Med Stake

St. Pats +0.25 @ 2.00 (Bet365/Asia) - Small Stake

Cabo\Bray Under 2.5 Goals @ 1.80 - Small Stake

So 2019 is done.... overall we hit an 11.98% ROI which isn't too bad. 56 bets advised in total over the season.

Comparing that to 2018 - we had an ROI of just 1.86% and we advised 80 bets.

The decrease in bets and going with quality over quantity worked. Roll on February 14th, roll on the 2020 season and roll on Shels being back in the Premier!

Any profit is good Over a season cheers for all the write ups

Probably us done for the season, nothing took our fancy on Friday bar Derry but the value was completely gone.

Maybe a novelty bet on the Cup Final on Sunday - shall have a look.

Will post up our stats for the season in the coming weeks.

Gavin "shels"

Derry odds absolutely smashed... was hoping to top -0.75 but it's on a -2.5 line now :O

Just one bet for Saturday none for tomorrow. 4th place gets Europe due to the Cup Final being Dundalk/Shamrock Rovers so a win here would set Derry up on course to secure European football. Following on from this game, Derry host 5th placed Pats in what could be a 6 pointer for Europe.

Derry win or -0.5 Asian @ 1.85 (Bet365/Asia/General) - Small/Med Stake
