Bet 66: £100 EXETER to beat Droylsden @ 2/7

Exeter are just 3 points off a play-off spot and will be going all out for a win here. Whilst Droylsden have actually improved of late, they only played on Tuesday and face a long trip down to Devon.

Running balance: £1,779.92

Post script: Well, it had to end eventually, and yesterday's 1-1 draw saw my run of wins come to a screeching halt. Exeter had 30 shots in the game, so I don't think it was a poor choice, you sometimes have games where the opposition's goal can become unbreachable. Exeter's goal only came about from the penalty spot.

What was more annoying was the timing of it, right at the start of the month leaving me in a £100 hole. At the end of March, such a loss would have easily been swallowed up, almost without notice. Just got to stay focused, pick one game at a time, and take a long term view of it all.
