@ cooee, welcome to my thread and I kind of agree with what your saying mate, maybe I'm still hurting a bit from a bad few days. However i cannot ignore the current statistics, Sandhausen haven't lost at home in their last 9 games where as Osnabruck have won twice away from home in 10 and their last away win in September. Sandhausen have lost twice in 17 games and currently sit top. 3/1 is a price i have to take on given the current statistics.

Many thanks.

Well done Bingo. Probably wasn't as easy as you might have hoped, but 0-0s will do the job nicely.  I don't know whether that was just a poor performance from the home side or a good performance from the away side, but the closeness seems to suggest the market-makers were about right. Who can tell with these little leagues though?

Enjoy your winnings.

Smashing stuff ! Well done !

Yep. Well done Bingo.

On second thoughts and after closer inspection I cannot pass up on this bet today. I cannot have Liverpool as favourites.

Month 3 - November Results and Review

I won't be placing anymore bets this month so I shall write this out now. November is complete and I got there in the end. Its safe to say that this month has been my hardest, certainly been the most up and down month so far. Relieved its come to an end if I'm honest, lol.

I couldn't of got off to a worse start and hopefully I won't start a month like this again. My first 3 lays consisted of Watford @ 2.6, Blackpool @ 4.1 and Rubin @ 2.04. Watford beat Brighton 1 nil. Blackpool beat Leeds 5 nil at Elland Road and Rubin beat Spurs 1 nil also. 3 bets in and minus 28.7 points. I know from that moment this was going to be a very difficult month. My next lat if I'm being honest was probably a bit of a chase, I laid Shamrock Rovers and they comfortably lost. Hurray, finally got a winner.

On the 5th of November and a very busy Saturday i laid Blackpool, Hull, Bristol City and Coventry. Bristol City won and the remaining 3 lost. I followed that on the Sunday with lays of Hannover, Cagliari and Reading, Reading won but as the odds where so short I was still in profit for the day. I was starting to feel better about the month ahead. My next lay was Braga against Benfica and a very entertaining match that kept getting suspended because the lights kept going off, lol. My lay won anyway and put me on - 2.63 points for the month.

I then laid Estonia, Morcambe and Sweden. All 3 lost and my points balance now stood at + 11.62. I was delighted with this after such a bad start. I also had a bit of a whinge about the lack of comments. Sorry about that I then laid Blackpool, Coventry and Pompey and again all 3 lost. Then the turning point in the month came when i decided there was no way on earth Napoli would be a City team that needed to win. I was so confident i risked 8 points on it instead of the normal 5. Napoli did win and I couldn't believe it. City obviously need more experience in Europe. The same night i laid Coventry and i think they drew with Cardiff so a winning bet.

I then laid Dortmund against Arsenal and although they beat Bayern Munich that weekend i just could not see them beating a very much on form Arsenal and in particular Robin Van Persie. Dortmund lost. Unfortunately I laid Leverkusen against chelsea and they won the match in the final minute. Absolute heartache. I would also like to add that although at the time it hurts when i lose so many points, its also probably the best thing that can happen at times because its helping my discipline so much having these losing days. I was a minute from being on + 19 points profit, instead the goal put me on 0.36 for the month.

I then went against my rule of thumb and laid a team purely on stats. First time I've done this, the stats where overwhelming and so was the price. Osnabruck @ 4.1 and the bet won. I then went on to state that the weekend would define my month and it certainly did. I laid West Brom, Blackpool, Bristol Rovers and Gateshead and fortunately all 4 lost. The funny thing about the West Brom game is that I actually laid them for twice my normal mistake by accident. Thankfully they lost. Final lay of the month was Liverpool @ 2.76 at home to City and i was probably a bit fortunate with that lay.

So many ups and downs this month but again its a profitable one. Ideally I don't want to be laying as many teams as I am but maybe that will change in future. Also I'm actually on Bet no.70 not 69, I will correct that with my next bet. I hope the points are right as well as Its a lot to add up at once. Thank you.

Hello, last night was unreal, thank you very much. I wasn't going to place any bets tonight but after seeing the team and the fact that they cannot lose i just have to get involved. I also don't lay many teams at these odds but i just have to. If this bet was to lose it would be my biggest single loss in this thread. Fingers crossed, should be fine.

unlucky mate

my bet of the week was a lay of blackburn, new manager factor

Hello, feel slightly let down this weekend. How Stoke took 3 points yesterday is beyond me, some terrible decisions by the ref. Adebayor was a good two yards onside. Chris Foy cost me 24 points yesterday. I'm really trying not to moan as I make the selections and football throws up the unexpected at times. Again tonight City 1 up and Silva should of had a pen, not given.

On the plus side I've clawed back a few points tonight and I currently sit on - 33.95 for the month. I always knew I would have bad months just didn't expect to feel a bit robbed. The Basel lay I could take on the chin as it was a fair game and a fair result. The Stoke game however I still cannot accept, lol.
Going to be difficult to make a profit this month but we'll see.

Thank you.
