    There's a few bets coming up that are a fair bit off the percentage given by the odds compilers for each team. I presume it's related to the fact that the season is entering it's closing stages. The system I am using doesn't take into account a team's end of season motivation. So from here on whenever I back a team who I feel have nothing to play for the league I will halve the size of my bet. I'll indicate where I do this. Come the final four games in the football league and last three in the prem I will not even consider any games where one or both teams may have nothing to play for. If the half sized bets reach -3 in loss then I will bring that forward and not consider those types of games from then onwards.

    /blows off dust

    Another year for bets arrives. Hopefully a successful one for you all.

    Same story applies with this year for me as mentioned on the first post. This time rather than quitting at -15 I will quit if i hit -12. What can I say, funds are tighter :D No bets for me this weekend however.

    Last year i mentioned who I thought was over and under rated with mixed results.

    I'll have a go this time too for the fun of it.

    Underestimated:

    Wolves
    Leicester
    Bristol City
    Sheffield United
    Brentford

    Overestimated:

    Newcastle
    Reading
    Brighton
    Gillingham
    Crewe

    EDIT: Replaced Walsall with Brentford in the underestimated section following transfer news.

    Brighton v Walsall 7/2 Ladbrokes -1.00

    Blackpool nearly have their dream first home game.
    I'll be surprised if another team is 15/1 at Anfield.
    A late Sunderland penalty saves us from a weekend wipeout. We take another loss nonetheless.

    Three losses. Poor start as our bank runs low. Could be a quick one this season :D

    Bets: 15

    Profit/Loss: -6.27


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,517 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    I'm changing the loss I'm able to take to 15 units as it was last season. An increase of 3 units to the original bank this time around. The only top up it will be getting :D So bank is 8.73

    6 bets

    Everton v Manchester United 7/2 Betpack

    West Ham v Chelsea 10/1 Victor Chandler

    Cardiff v Hull 11/2 Victor Chandler

    Portsmouth v Ipswich 2/1 Boyles

    Rochdale v Walsall 11/4 Victor Chandler

    Sheffield Wednesday v Carlisle 4/5 Victor Chandler

    Not good at all. It leaves us with 2 units to bet so two more losses and our bank is kaput.

    New bank: 2.73
    Bets: 21
    Wins: 3
    Profit/Loss: -12.27


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,517 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    Could be the last three bets of the season here depending on results. Takes us marginally over the 15 bank but only by 0.27 units so ill forgive myself this indulgence :D

    All homes

    Bristol City v Watford 6/5 Victor Chandler

    Hull v Derby 23/20 Victor Chandler

    Leicester v Cardiff 13/8 William Hill
