I've been enjoying some success with the lower divisions this season, so I thought I'd share my thoughts for round 6. The lower divisions continue to kick on despite the international break due to the lack of intl commitments for these players.

League One:
Sheffield Utd v Bury @ 1.74
Tranmere v Yeovil @ 1.84

League Two:
Burton Albion v Plymouth @ 1.65

Some slightly riskier League Two punts are:

Swindon v Rotherham @ 2.90 (+0.5 @1.61 is also worth considering)
Hereford v Dag & Red @ 2.40 (+0.5 @1.42 is also worth considering)

It's not a happy time for Plymouth fans. Senior players at Plymouth Argyle are considering not playing this weekend against Burton Albion because they have not been paid! They will send a side out but it is not known yet which senior professionals will be involved.

Nice work thanks for the advice qtip.. will have a look into it.. certainly are better odds than the prem league.

Must admit since I have joined in on that action ive had a little success.. though been doing small bets until i feel a little more confident with it..

Will be interesting to see how you go qtip.

My focus is currently on the Championship and the Premier League.

I'm doing pretty well for the season after backing Derby heavily in round 4.

Looks like Manchester bets are the way to go this season (famous last words :)).

Update:

I wagered $4 on each outcome bar one, which I didn't bet on.

League One:

Sheffield Utd v Bury @ 1.74 -- Sheffield Utd won 4-0 -- winning bet
Tranmere v Yeovil @ 1.84 -- 0-0 draw -- bet refunded (bookmaker promotion)

League Two:

Burton Albion v Plymouth @ 1.65 -- Burton Albion won 2-1 -- winning bet
Swindon v Rotherham @ 2.90 -- Rotherham lost 3-2 -- losing bet

Bet I chickened out of:

Hereford v Dag & Red @ 2.40 -- Hereford won 1-0 -- would have been a losing bet

Total wagers: 4 x $4 = $16
Net profit: $1.48

Not bad. Not great. The bookmaker promotion saved me from a losing round. You guys did well to sit on the sideline!
