Missed out on Arsenal

I had an eye on the arsenal game, unfortunately came home too late.

On a wider note took a small bet on Man U for the title- at half way through the season anything is possible so 23-1 seems to be generous. I'm sure the odds will shorten towards the end of the season, when I'll look to trade out for a 50% profit either way.

Game over

Games just finished , England running out winners 23-13, stretching away at 70 mins. Englands bench was stronger today.

From a trading point of view the lesson is to set a statedy before the game and stick to it. In this case take 20% profit when it was on offer.

Good game of rugby!

Traded Out

32 minutes on the clock, score 6-10 to France, odds are now 1,62 England and 2,88 France.

I've traded out for my 20 %, i expect the game to be nip and tuck all the way with england taking it.

As i type England 9-10.....

Eng v France

Just looking at the Betfair prices for the game, England are at 1,37 at the moment, France 4,2.

I see the logic based on results but i think the game is going to be closer than the odds suggest. I don't usually trade on anything but football but i'll be laying England before the start and looking to trade out with a 20% profit. I think England will win but the game will be tight until 60 minutes or so. France have been slaughtered by their own press during the week and have got a point to prove, their team has 7 changes from the last 2 games. The past shows that France are at their best when least expected to perform.

Resources

For those that are wondering about how to look at possible matchups i thought i'd throw this link in

soccervista

There are loads of stats sites out there, most earn their money from sign up to the bookies advertised on the page. I tend to use this site for comparison, past recent results and previous meetings. After looking at the teams and recent history i'll see if any games roughly fit my criteria. Afterwards i'll take a look at the BBC website for any news of injuries etc before making any final decisions on whether to put my hard earned cash on the line.
