A Dag-ger to the heart

Another near miss. My main football bet for the weekend was the following games to have more than two goals: Man City 2 Liverpool 3 (6/5); Charlton 2 Ipswich 1 (Evs); Carlisle 1 Tranmere 2 (5/6); Burton 2 Crawley 1 (4/5); Weymouth 3 Eastboune 2 (4/5); and Rochdale 0 Dagenham and Redbridge 2 (5/6).

I permed the selections in any five (£1.10) and all six (£7). My return was £28.75. But one more goal in the Rochdale match would have made it more than £900. Even more galling was that it was Dagenham's first away clean sheet of the season. And they hit the bar and had a shot cleared off the line.

It's only a matter of time. I'm just hoping that my betting bank holds out that long.
