Bulls Slip Down Bookies Lists

With the League Two line-up complete, the bookies have started to issue odds for next season with the Bulls predicted to struggle.

Bet365 have put the Bulls as a 40/1 shot after rating the side as a 20/1 shot last season, moving the Bulls from joint 13th in the list to joint 20th. Dagenham (25/1) and Morecambe (40/1) are also expected to struggle with Accrington (50/1), Bury (66/1) and Barnet (80/1) below the Bulls in the list. Bury and Barnet occupy two of the bottom three places for the second season running.

Favourites are big spending Peterboro at 11/2, with MK Dons on 8/1. Shrewsbury are rated just 20/1 after their play-off final loss, alongside Chester.

It's interesting to note that, from last season's list, the sides promoted were ranked 1st, 2nd, 6th, and 7th with none of the play-off candidates rated over 16/1 generally.

The full list: Peterboro 11/2, Milton Keynes Dons 8/1, Wycombe 9/1, Lincoln City 12/1, Stockport 12/1, Bradford 12/1, Chesterfield 12/1, Brentford 16/1, Darlington 16/1, Rotherham 16/1, Macclesfield 16/1, Notts County 20/1, Grimsby 20/1, Chester 20/1, Rochdale 20/1, Shrewsbury 20/1, Dag & Red 25/1, Wrexham 25/1, Mansfield 33/1, Morecambe 40/1, Hereford 40/1, Accrington Stanley 50/1, Bury 66/1, Barnet 80/1.
