Kinglouey Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. As McGin says your not alone,i also was on Villa and Preston and was very happy with the results.Decided to follow this to see where it goes and was curious as to how many selections on average this throws up on a weekend.Good luck with this:ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. .... Many thanks to you other guys too, much appreciated. It is always encouraging when I find someone who IS actually taking some notice in a system put before them, which HAS actually got some potential and without costing the earth to wager.I have also learned a lesson from the Michael Wray sheets, and that is to completely ignore ALL selections for two to three weeks at the start of the season.If I had done this, the strike rate and yield etc would have been even better than they are at this current moment in time, although I am pleased with the progress shown over the past couple of weeks or so.Good to hear your comments Gentlemen, do call again!;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merlin Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. ..... numbers of views mean absolutely very little to me my friend if I find I am treading a lonely furrow! Six lone messages and the passage of one month later is not exactly encouraging from any originator.I realise full well that punters responses are not a god given right, and I would not expect otherwise.Just an odd line here and there would always be appreciated, but if this is not to be, then I would still plough the furrow.Thanks again.;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also learned a lesson from the Michael Wray sheets, and that is to completely ignore ALL selections for two to three weeks at the start of the season. I think most systems need several weeks to settle down. As a general rule I wait till October before following anything, but need a few small bets in the mean time to keep me occupied :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laying larry Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. Hi merlin, IMHO I find that I can't get any descent rhythm in football until around 6 games have been played, mind you even then without help from here I pretty much useless at footie anyway.:lol Cheers LL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cavello Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. I've taken Micheal Wray on board. One question how does he calculate the scorelines? Should I e-mail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinglouey Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. Thought you'd got another 2 winners there Merlin,couldn't believe Man City getting a 93rd minute and 59 second goal,literally :sad Spot on with the Blackpool game though.No cigars this week but must not grumble as it was only a small loss.Keep up the good work and better luck next time:ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted October 2, 2006 Author Share Posted October 2, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. .... the sheets did have two winners Kinglouey, I missed Forest Green in my haste, proofed on the sheets themselves.Hard done by the Everton result with Man City scoring last kick of the match! Would have been 3 from 3. Anyway settle for 2 from 3. Current position:- Total Staked 300.00 Total Returned 354.90 Yield +18.30% Winners 18 Losers 12 Total Bets 30 Strike rate 60% Current Bank 154.90 Profit/Loss 54.90 One interesting statistic in favour of leaving this system alone in the initial weeks of the season, is that only 3 bets from the first 10 were winners,whilst out of the last 10 bets there have been 8 winners, a strike rate of 80%, which is good in anyone's book!;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppet77 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. cavelloman. i emailed him last season and he replied, but didn't divulge anything. i know that he uses a weighting system between * the last 5 year's previous encounters * the average last 5 home/away goals for/against i'm sure this conversation has been had on here before. perhaps do a search.

merlin Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. .... yeah you are right muppet, all this has been discussed previously and his methodology appeared to be fairly sound and above board.It most certainly works for this highlighted 3-0 system,and as long as one does not follow the correct scorelines, there is profit to be made here. Long may it continue.Cheers.Merlin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmphill Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. Nice going Merlin, keep it up.

merlin Posted October 4, 2006 Author Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. .... if I'm looking through my glass eye properly and it's not all steamed up, I make it only the one selection this weekend for the 3-0 Michael Wray system:- Crewe Alexandra 1.92 Will be looking for continued success!;) I will be missing from pm Wednesday until sometime around the weekend due to my PC getting a very much overdue overhaul, so good luck to all punters.;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merlin Posted October 19, 2006 Author Share Posted October 19, 2006 Re: Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment. ..... no Eddie! These are teams highlighted by the Michael Wray system, as being 3-0 winners.Going on last seasons start of this system and backing all these selections as WINNERS only and not correct scores, provided a profit, as it is at the moment in excess of 5% yield.There is a thread in the archives showing last season's final stats if you are interested.Cheers.;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
