Redno2009

We had 32 winners this week and an overall profit thanks mainly to a magnificent effort from Divisions 5 and 6.  Bet of the week goes to @Redno2009 with an 11/1 treble followed by @BBBC with an 8/1 treble.  
@Marek76 stays on top of the overall standings with a fifth consecutive winner and has broken 5x his starting bank.

Welcome back to the Football Tipsters Challenge Competition for the 2021/22 season. 
We will be starting up again with this weekend's matches (so first fixtures start Fri 13th August). We will split the year into 4 seasons of 9 or 10 weeks so new players can join in through the year when a new season starts up. Everyone who completed 20/21 season will be allocated to their new Division based on their finishing position last time.  New players and those previouisly eliminated can apply to join and will be slotted into Divisions 7 or 8.  Divisions 1-6 normally have 15 players, Divisions 7-8 up to 20, but I may tinker slightly with this if we get a lot of new entrants.
One change from previous years (mainly to reduce the workload involved) is I'm removing the Both Teams to Score bet option.  Bets (single, double or treble) can be made from the outright result (Home Win, Draw, Away Win) or Under/Over 2.5 Goals odds which will be posted up in a weekly thread taken from William Hill site generally on Tuesday/Wednesday.  Bet deadline is 3pm Saturday even if your selections kick off later than that, but you need to post before your kick off if you pick an earlier match.
I'll post a separate thread for new players to request to join in. 
I'll sort the division threads along this week's odds tonight (hopefully!)
 

Lingfield 20:35 FAME N FORTUNE EW 10/1 bet365

Well it is over.  Overall I am disappointed, not just by England's overall performance. 
For the record, England have won 3 out of 10 penalty shootouts in major(ish) tournaments.  It is probably:
1) that we dwell so much on the losses that we remember them so much more
2) we create so much hoo-haa before the game (football is coming home, bank holiday, likely knoghthoods) that the fall is a long way.
 
Right - some positives.  England went further than I expected.  And regardless, a Final is pretty good.  Not there are the likes of Spain, France, Belgium, Germany.  Englands has some kids who could become excellent seasoned professionals at internatinal and club level.  So look forward is worth it.  Some players out-performed my expectations too.
I was pleased that Scotland and Wales qualified.  Wales showed great spirit. Scotland continue with some their fair share of misfortunes and with players with less multi-leagues experiences at club level.  Perhaps Northern Ireland can make a play next tournament?
I was impressed by a couple of non-Home Nations strikers. I liked seeing perfect execution as a result of combining years of prectice, top technique and intelligence.
 
Here's hoping for the next banter thread at the World Cup.  I hope there can be more to say / discuss / debate from more players.
