Review for week ending 23/10/03

A very busy week which seemed to be going well at around 25 minutes past three on Saturday afternoon but which then turned against us in a big way. Man City came from a goal behind to thrash Bolton 6-2 (ouch) and West Ham threw away their lead and in the end were lucky to snatch a draw against Burnley. Elsewhere the results were pretty much in and out and the only good fortune came in mid week when Wimbledon caused a big shock by winning away at W.B.A. Overall the week showed a loss of �307 which reduces the total profit for the season so far to �140 (an average profit of �35 per week). These potential bets are determined using the guidelines on the Weekly Reviews page.
