Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Next Weekend There appear to be a couple of choices next week. I thought I would post them early to get some opinions. Liverpool v Everton ..................................F....A...FTS...CS..+2.5 Liverpool Last 5 Home.....9....6.....0......1.....4 Everton Last 5 Away......6....10....1......0.....4 West Ham v Rotherham ..................................F....A...FTS...CS..+2.5 West Ham Last 5 Home...9....7.....1......1......4 Rotherham Last 5 Away..9....6.....0......1......3 Any views on which is the better selection?

Guest DannyCash Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Re: Next Weekend BBB, firstly another good pick today. Well done. Secondly, I was thinking along the lines of Man City v Spurs tomorrow in the cup for a possible selection, have you considered this game, or decided against it for a particular reason?

Guest DannyCash Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 ... Oh and thirdly, I think you have been a bit cruel on yourself with commission rates there mate! Remeber it's profit only that is commissionable, not profit + stake. So your profit on todays game was 78 points, I make this 74points profit after your 4.9% rate, a reduction of 4 points not 9! Go on, add yourself some more ca$h to the bank! Danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 ahh...so That's how they do it... Thanks Danny. I thought I'd made a mistake in my first account statement and amended that calculation too. Bonus So I need to revise them both...!!! Christ the man is an amateur...I will update the figures in the next statement. I am staying clear of the Man C v Spurs game. The main reason for this is that I just want to enjoy the game, bet free. Also (Head on the block) I can see Spurs keeping a clean sheet..!!! and I doubt they'll score three away from home. I think it is a good pick though. City have drawn 1-1 three times in their last four home games, and the one that didn't ended +2.5 Although, Spurs have only scored 6 away from home in the league this season, with 4 of those from Kanoute. I think it's a game where gut feel says YES, but the stats don't quite back it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 The stats kind of say YES.....

Guest DannyCash Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Re: The stats kind of say YES..... Well done BBB. Your bet came in after 25mins with Wolves now losing 3-1 at home ht!!!! Must admit I placed a few shillings myself. Had it not been for your pick I would've definately avoided the game! Nice! Also, Man City 1 Spurs 1 was another bonus! :ok May I just add one final point, I hope you don't mind. I notice on this thread your starting bank was 100points. Now your first pick used up all the points. Had it not won would the thread have been over after 1 solitary bet? Maybe you should have started from a 1000point bank and given yourself at least 10 chances to gain profit rather than blowing the entire bank. I know the moderators are pretty strict on here but they should allow such an alteration. It is just my opinon that you should operate with more of a bank beneath you. All the best with your thread.

Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Things are looking up..... I see your point Mr Cash. It would have indeed made sense not to lay your entire bank on your first bet. :loon Still, what's done is done. Fortunately, I've been successful so far and my bank will now allow for a couple of losses. In some respects it helps, as it focuses the mind a little. If you have a large bank to bet from you can tend to be a little maverick with your selections. I'll keep the bank as it is and see if I can nudge my way up to 1000pts. Thanks for the advice though, I'll bear it in mind if I start a new thread. I could have looked a right twat (can I use that word?) if the first bet had lost. :unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Any views on this one....? Derby Co. v Sheff Utd. ...................................F...A...FTS...CS...+2.5 Derby Co. Last 5 Homes...9...8.....1......1.......4 Sheff Utd. Last 5 Aways..8...8.....1......2.......4 I'm not 100% sure about this as a selection. 7 of Derby's 9 goals have come against Burnley(2), Wimbledon(3) and Gillingham(2) all of whom are in the bottom six. Sheff Utd conceded against Burnley(3), Ipswich(3) and Stoke(2), but have since kept 2 clean sheets away from home against Gillingham and Coventry. I guess the question I am asking is, do you think Derby will score against Sheff Utd?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 Hello, is anyone there....?

Guest DannyCash Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 Re: Hello, is anyone there....? BBB, don't get to worried that no-one is responding to your threads. In fact, the 3 selections you have put up off your own back have all won so you don't really need our help do you? Using your stats and knowledge it's probably better that you give us your selections outright! If you are desperate for some feedback I'd say West Ham was your best chance this weekend.

cains Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 feedback Hi.. I read this thread with great interest... And so far, i have had nothing to add, to your previus selections. So just keep em coming... :beer But i see liverpool - everton go over today... I dont think liverpool can keep clean sheet. With the bad defence and goalie.. :( Hope houllier soon get :spank But also, i cant see liverpool dont score at home, against rivals everton...

Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 Just having a bit of fun..... Danny, I'm not overly concerned that there are few responses to my posts. My selections are based on the stats I post, so as long as I keep them up to date I should be OK. I am just hoping that if anyone has additional info, (ie. they are fans and know about their teams injuries/suspensions etc.) they might post it and guide me away from potentially bad selections.

Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 31st January 2004 Right then. I have four selections today, so although I am confident, I can see a high chance of a failure today. We'll see.

DeepBlueDevilFish Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Re: 31st January 2004 Just tried to put the Over part of these bets on at Canbet for the two 3rd division games and I couldn't do it. Got some kind of weird 28/28 error. :rolleyes Anyone else have this problem at Canbet ? Suspect they've maybe reached their limits on these games. Guess I shouldn't leave it so late in future ...

Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Liverpool v Everton I watched the highlights last night, and I am amazed it didn't go +2.5. I have also started to look at strong home favourites where I bet +2.5 with a 2-0 cover. I backed the Man U game yesterday in this fashion, and will do the same with Arsenal this afternoon. In terms of stats we need a lot of home wins with very few 1-0 scorelines. Don't worry about the advice you posted Cains, I appreciate all feedback and opinion. You appear to be a Liverpool fan, and will know a lot more about them than I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luddite71 Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 Re: Liverpool v Everton why havent i looked in here before?? great idea for a system BBB - and it seems to be going quite well. 100 pts seems a lot to be staking though. Are you simply testing or pfoofing this system or is some real cash going on?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 Luddite71 Thanks for the kind comments. There is real cash going on these bets. Regarding your remark about the 100pts being a lot to stake - 1pt could be a penny, could be a pound. It's all relative. So far the system has been quite successful, but it is early days. I am also looking in to +2.5/2-0 for strong home favourites who rarely win by a 1-0 scoreline. So far it's 3 out of 3, (Man U v Soton, Arsenal v Man C and Inter v Sienna), but again it's early days.

Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 A quiet weekend...? I can't see that many obvious choices this weekend. There are one or two that may have the stats to back it up though. Ipswich v Wigan ...................................F....A....FTS....CS....+2.5 Ipswich Last 5 Homes.....12...10....1.......1.......4 Wigan Last 5 Aways........9....10....1.......0.......3 Possibly... Burnley v Gillingham ...................................F....A....FTS....CS....+2.5 Burnley Last 5 Homes......8.....6.....1.......1........3 Gillingham Last 5 Aways..10....9.....0.......0........4 Sheff Utd v Palace ...................................F....A....FTS....CS....+2.5 Sheff Utd Last 5 Homes...10...6......0.......2.......2 Palace Last 5 Aways.......14...7......0.......1.......5 I'm also tempted for +2.5 with a 2-0 cover in the Spurs v Pompey game. ...................................F....A....FTS....CS....+2.5 Spurs Last 5 Homes........12...7......1.......0.......4 Pompey Last 5 Aways......1....9......4.......1.......3 Add Jermaine Defoe to the above stats and I think it's a banker.

Luddite71 Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 Re: A quiet weekend...? Hi BBB, I take on board what you're saying about the points system, but your current bank i beleive is hovering somewhere just above the 200 mark which means 2 losers wipes you out completely. Having just looked over the thread again though its probably as a consequence of you starting with only 100 points and going sh1t or bust on the first bet. anyway still; think its a cracking idea for a system and out of the games shortlisted for the weekend i especially like the spurs v portsmouth with a 2-0 cover. Goodluck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 Man City v Spurs 1-1/+2.5 Tonight looks like a safe bet looking at recent LEAGUE form, and the previous FA cup game. Also, City have a keeper making his debut, and it's windy down here tonight. Oh, and Richards is playing for Spurs, so City must score tonight. .................................F....A....FTS....CS....+2.5 Spurs Last 5 Homes......12...7......1.......0.......4 Man City Last 5 Aways..4....12.....2.......1.......4 Following comments from Danny Cash and Luddite71 I have decided to lower my stakes to 10pts, keeping the bank at 225pts. This will allow me a few losing bets. I hope this is OK..? The cover bet will now give me a small profit, but I will still class it as a "draw".

Guest Boof Bonk Boosh Posted February 6, 2004 Share Posted February 6, 2004 Pile on Plymouth....?

Of the 5 that didn't, 3 finished 2-0. Also, Plymouth won 2-0 away at Bournemouth on Boxing day. One concern is that Bournemouth have conceded 2 or more away goals on only 5 occasions. However the LAST 5 stats above speak for themselves I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
