Two footballing points of interest.

Not very often I put my neck on the line.........
TODAY
Bournmouth vs Grimsby 11/5 the draw (Coral). Both teams are 4 points clear of 23rd placed Chester, therefore if news comes in from Aldershot (Chesters opponents) that Chester are losing I can see B'mouth and Grimsby playing out a draw which will guarantee them both their football league status next season. 11/5 seems extremely generous with all things considered but hey, this is English football not Italian, where it would be a cert.
TOMORROW
Whats happened to Burton? Oh yeah, Nigel Clough left for Derby!! Anyhow Burton are away at Torquay, who themselves need a win to secure a play off spot, especially with Kiddie breathing down their necks (at home to an out of sorts Kettering). This brings me on to Mattb's beloved Cambridge. At home to Altrincham who have nothing to play for themselves I can see C'bridge win by 4+ easily. So my bet is - Cambridge to win by a goal margin of at least 4 and Torquay to beat Burton (11/10 Corals).
This will send Cambridge up (I think) and Burton wondering where the hell did our 19 point lead disappear to?
