Can Whitby Town push for promotion in the 2014/15 season?

The 2013/14 season of football has just ended, meaning that fans will start to think about their team’s chances next season. For fans of Whitby Town, in the Northern Premier League, that means debates and betting on whether they can get promotion from the Northern Premier League. Last season saw them finish in ninth place, 10 points off a place in the play-offs, which indicates that they will need changes to have a chance of promotion in 2014/15. The odds are not yet out for next season, but Whitby are unlikely to be amongst the favourites with bookmakers – especially as they failed to hang on to last seasons top scorer Graeme Armstrong. If they had managed to keep hold of him then fans may be a little more optimistic after a fairly successful campaign in 2013/14.

Of course, stranger things have happened in the history of football – and of gambling for that matter – but it would be a risky bet to back Whitby at the moment. At this pre-odds stage, it is hard to say for certain which sides the bookmakers will make favourites next year. However those teams just below the play-off spots – notably Skelmersdale United and Rushall Olympic will be fancied to go one better this season. Another team who fancy their chances are FC United of Manchester who have lost out in the play offs in the last 2 seasons. But it really is far too early to even consider making bets on the promotion market, making slot game ‘Soccer Safari’ a great pass time until the world cup is over and the season starts again.

The fact that it is a World Cup summer makes this five-reel online casino favourite even more appropriate. The football featured here has a World Cup theme, but its animals, not humans, competing in it. The jackpot is $8000, and you certainly have a better chance of winning it than the England team does in Brazil, especially with the World Cup scatter and Soccer Safari logo wild icon to improve your payout hopes. Furthermore, at a time when the real-life World Cup often turns out to be a bit of a bore, the rampant rhinos and lazy lion dribblers in the funny graphics of this game make it one which is guaranteed to provide you with entertainment.
