Us and Bradford probably the value. Grimsby and Carlisle decent prices. MK probably right favourites.

Salford 4th favourites for the title, really?

I can see why. Their data for the second half of the season was great, and they obviously have a bit of spending power. Not sure I’d be rushing to bet them though.

Probably not the time to bet on the Rovers. The recent exploits won't have gone unnoticed.

Probably better to wait

Personally think they’ll do a Notts County and not a Wrexham.

Their results weren't. 28 points from the final 23 games.

Generally the numbers improve before the results. Our case this season was slightly different. The clues were there before the run but not to the extent that they indicated the points return we got.

As I’ve said before, we improved to be about the 5th best side in the division and had a big amount of good fortune along the way.

Yeah I get that. Would've been interesting to see our data for the 2nd half of 89/90. The results were shite but everyone knew we were going to start the next season like a steam hammer.

Why are Notts County fancied more than us?

Do “the numbers” favour teams who complete lots of passes?

Chesterfield just signed Paddy Madden.
