Saturday 25 October 2025 - Dale Win Tons

All work and no play makes Chris a dull bugger blogger, so straight down to business this week I’m afraid.

Rejoice!  Last weekend’s “hypothetical £20 win double” came in, with Stockport beating Exeter 1-0 and Rochdale thumping Boreham Wood 3-0 (so much for my prediction of a 1-0 win).  If I can keep the magic going I’ll be back in profit for the start of November and bashing the bookies with their own money again.

The first leg of this weekend’s “hypothetical” win double picks itself: Rochdale (3/4).  The Dale are flying at the moment and in 2025 have yet to let this blog down.  On Saturday they visit Woking, who are currently eighteenth in the National League.  The Cardinals will be cheered by their last game, a 1-3 away win at Altrincham, but that was at the expense of a team who are actually bottom of the league based on recent form.  Leg two of the double is another team hitting the road, MK Dons (13/8), who travel to Bromley in League Two, an opposition that is currently the model of inconsistency.  Both matches kick off at 3 pm and my “hypothetical” £20 win double currently returns £91.88 at combined odds of 3.59/1 with my unofficial sponsor Sky Bet for a profit of £71.88 after deduction of stake.

You never know!  See you next time, hopefully with a bit more to say (and time to say it in).
