  1. I saw some of the tweets, mostly people getting onto Barclays about them apparently freezing the account. Is it a case of the bank getting their act together or are you still inclined to view that narrative with a degree of cynicism? Great result either way but be good to know “whodunnit”!
  2. Maybe it’s a case of “muscle memory” in that’s how he stakes his daily bets, for convenience perhaps rather than consider “bespoke” staking based on the odds each time. Personally I’d have said the odds were a bit short for my tastes in terms of a win lucky 15 and I agree, in this case, the e/w fourfold isn’t worth the bother given it would barely return £3 for the places. I guess the point of that bet is in case all 4 place when you did a win L15 rather than e/w. It might be worth it where the place return is big enough to regret missing out on but this would be below my cut off point for feeling it was worth the bother. I’ll have a think re how I’d stake them on footy bets. It’s rare for me to have the opportunity to do multis for a variety of reasons but I always consider the minimum return (to make sure it’s worthwhile) before I decide on the staking.
  3. Forster (Crawley) brace at 100/1. Will be a career first but, with goals in 4 of his 12 starts, the 15/2 anytime looks decent and the brace looks worth a pop in here at 100/1.
  4. As it's pretty much the only game in town today had a look at the Crawley v Stockport game earlier. A couple of players look worth backing for the hosts. Lolos at 18/5 and Forster 15/2 Former has scored in 6 out of 22 starts and the latter in 4 out of 12. Also had a quid on the brace for the latter at 100/1 (for my "100 club" thread where I'm tilting at getting a triple digit odds winner).
  5. Gone with this tomorrow, you’ll be at the front of the queue for that price if you nip in now. Had 2 other maybe games where the price has gone the wrong way.
  6. Away from the high-stakes Euros qualifying games here's some friendlies and a stray Nations League game taking place this week. Maybe a good time to recharge the batteries but there could still be some interesting angles to exploit. Let us know here if you find anything of note, Some attractive pairings even if there's not much at stake; Netherlands v Scotland, England v Brazil and France v Germany in particular.
  7. Updated prices a couple of weeks on for these qualifying matches. Might take a look at the draw angle as well as my usual goalscorer betting. Let us know your thoughts and bets here as the line up for Euro 2024 moves closer to being finalised.
  8. MLS action continues unabated while the International break bites elsewhere. Quite liking it from a goalscorer betting perspective so far. Anyone got a feel for the more mainstream betting markets yet? Share here if you think there are any decent bets to be had in the set of fixtures.
  9. With higher level action pausing for the International break here's all the League 1 and 2 games between now and Saturday (just a couple of midweek games in League 2). Let us know if you think the value lies here rather than in the more heady International fare going on elsewhere.
  10. Nothing today but a few irons in the fire for tomorrow. Watch this space!
  11. Back to me with £10.80 Hopefully everyone is willing to be patient here given how thin on the ground games are with it being International week. I'll take a look at today's few games later but I don't want to pick something just for the sake of it.
  12. Scores again at 14/1 and direct from a free kick to land the 50/1 so 2 more to add to the list. 0/21 in terms of the thread itself but nicely up on the underlying bets that the 100/1+ shots are based on. The initial rationale for backing him (before he’d scored a goal this season) was how high he was in the rankings for shots from free kicks. Let’s see how he’s priced next time around.
  13. Nice return there with Stroud and Campana scoring. Let’s try a couple in the game at New England, one for each team. Carles Gil at 3/1 and Sergio Santos at 9/2
  14. And again, 300/1 the brace, 14s anytime (out to 16/1 now) and 50/1 the “screamer”.
  15. A tad rushed but Bruno 1st e/w 14/1 and anytime 4/1, Diaz from outside the box 20/1 and anytime 3.65, Szoboszlai 7.8*. Man U to lead at anytime 2/1 (boost, fiver max stake and just about ok at the price (they're 6/4 best to score 1st). *No chance with that one after he scored at a standout 11/2 last time out and the "bookmaker" in question offered me a max stake of zero.
  16. 3 tries from my 4 players but all from Tabuai-Fidow unfortunately! King at 6/5 for Warrington. Could make a case for all their more likely scorers at best price but I'm not playing odds on shots unless the edge is exceptional.
  17. Paqueta and Kudus maybe flying under the radar a bit for West Ham today. 9/2 ok for the former though got a touch more on the exchange. The latter perhaps short enough with the bookies but a play at 4+ on the exchange. Done the double as a BB with West Ham win or draw at 24.88 (nets me a matched freebie). Started 19 games together this season, both scored once and at least one of them has scored in 11 of those games.
  18. Did you not open a Guinness? Can't be helped. Just me without an "L" on my card for now. We go again with a tenner and over to @Skittle
  19. Mudryk and Daka both 4.2 on the exchange. Neither quite a 3/1 shot for me.
  20. Nothing at all matched at that price yet and down to 1.02 back/1.03 lay. What’s your thinking?
  21. Didn’t take too long. Back with @glennhughes with £14.47 to invest.
  22. 3 places for me but never worth going each way with today’s prices. Maybe an argument for going with bigger priced selections and doing each way but it’s always the winners that do the really heavy lifting. The day all 4 win is the day you regret your temerity if you went each way!
