Crystal Palace versus Manchester United Well considering they are away from home I think man United are too short here. Purely based on the goal statistics that is. Not short enough to trade the current prices however if man United go 2-0 up I may look at a very cheap lay, particularly in the last […]

well an early goal in the Fiorentina match, and fairly good example of why I do less of those types of  trades these days. I have just realised it is 2-0,  and even though it is a home team I am laying Fiorentina. They could well score again of course but Sass seem to always […]

Even though I am not sure I will be trading, I have had a quick look at the coupon for footie trades today: Roma versus Milan The goal stats certainly look good for a home win, but  the form of both teams suggests Milan could cause problems here. Therefore I think, despite being tempted to […]

hi all, I have hurt my right hand quite badly. I have a hospital appointment this week to find out how many weeks I am going to be out of action. I tried to trade horseracing markets today using my left hand and it was a tad scary despite a few greens and one red […]

Bani Yas v Al Nasr (UAE) - 0-2 I am laying Al Nasr at 1.08. Small stakes, will add more if it goes 0-3. Just like yesterday this is a very very speculative trade, a throwaway job, so the losses need to be pocket change. It could end 0-5 or 0-10. But it could end […]

Well I can see nothing of interest today at as far as the conventional lay the draw method goes. Will update if I see any in play opportunities, but need to avoid these internationals as much as possible I think. Unreliable for trading in my view. A UKFT reader (Craig) asked me to look at […]

there is at least a chance of a home goal, a better chance than 0.1% anyway! one of those silly speculative things i often do, i wouldnt normally post about it but peopel are asking for me to try my best to post all my trades even the silly throwaway ones, so here it is, […]

I have laid Piacenza in the Livorno game @ 1.19

Well that was a losing day for me which was annoying, mainly because the losses which caused the overall losing day were games which went utterly and crazily against the stats. Have to take those on the chin just like I will with the cheese on my pizza 😀 maybe a few people will see […]

I laid Nuneaton when they went 0-2 up. I laid at 1.16, that was when it was 2 goal difference. I then laid again lower at 0-3. Whats funny is, it's now 1-3, so two goals apart and less time to play, the odds SHOULD be lower than 1.16 if this was a properly formed […]

I have Laid Mansfield, it was either that or a small back bet on Carlisle but with odds so low on Mansfield, I would rather do that So many ops here, too many browser tabs open and easy to get mixed up. I would love to back PSG and been saying that since they were […]

Second count alright. 3 seconds after bet matched its 0-3!! I just see that as more value so adding to what was a smallish stake anyway as this game seems pretty open.

I have laid Nuneaton. This same fixture on 19th November ended 3-0 home win to UofC, so at 1.41 i think its worth a shot

Was just posting the stats of man city v Celtic and was about to have a back bet on city. 5 seconds too late!  

Rubbish coupon today. The only game which comes close to a LTD is Aberdeen, but the price of it is ridiculously high. 4.2 I might be interested, but 5.2 can take a running jump! I will see if any in play trading opportunities come up, but it looks like a quiet day as Tuesdays often […]

Laying Standard Liege (against Charlerio) at 1.07

hahahaha. I only did small stakes but I can't quite believe what I did wrong here. I read U4.5 as 'more than 3' instead of more than 4. WHAT A MUPPET! I thought I had added a nice little extra chunk of green for the day when I saw it go 4-0.... I really can't […]

Well Graz got another as half expected. I am actually adding to my lay at 1.01. There is over half an hour left in this game, and the home usually score 1.75 goals per game, and there is plenty of time for a green up here. By laying again, I only need the odds to […]

Wolfsberger v Sturm Graz - I checked this when it went 0-1. It wasn't good enough. I have checked it again now its just gone 0-2 at the stroke of HT. It's still not fantastic, but a lay at 1.07 on Sturm Graz looks to me like a worthwhile position to take here. Again, with […]

Fiorentina v Palermo Unbelievable price, over 6 on the draw yet home team score 0.67 goals per game and their best result is 1-0 all season! I am sorely tempted to back the draw for 20 minutes there, but I tend not to do this any more even though I used to do it with […]
