Too Many Mid-Week Games!

Posted on by
I’m suffering because of it! I’m used to only having a few games but now I’m not getting a break!
 
On the other hand, a side that could use a few breaks (of bones, preferably) are Exeter City who somehow lost overwhelmingly 6-1 at home to Chesterfield. Some results are just bizarre. My prediction of the night that pleased me most by coming in was Bayer Leverkusen’s victory at Werder Bremen (some bookies were quoting 3/1 on this) – I’m proud of this one!
