My 'experiment' lasted a whole 2 weeks :)


Week 5 (11 points scored)...


I predicted two correct scores @ 17/2. If I had placed ?1 on each of the 9 games I would've made a ?10 profit in total.

I predicted 7 correct results. If I had placed ?1 on each of the 9 games I would've made ?11.50 profit in total.

Total profit ?21.50.



Week 6 (6 points scored)...


1 correct score @ 14/1 = ?4 profit, and 4 correct results returned a loss of ?3.60, so overall a profit of 40p.

Total profit after 2 weeks = ?21.90.



My average score for these two weeks was 8.5pts.

My average score for the whole 21 weeks is just under 7.5pts.

So I performed above average for those two weeks.


I haven't worked out how many correct scores I have predicted, but I reckon they are the key to whether you would make a profit or not. I think you would need to average at least 1 a week, perhaps 3 over 2 weeks, in order to make a profit...

I'd be interested to see how RD has done against the original* over the season so far.

      UK Government Consultation on SEND

      By lollol · Posted

      I know people won’t have any sympathy but the SEND challenge was brought up when taxing parents who have opted for independent school to meet a child’s SEND needs. Funding crisis is getting worse and the VAT on Education pushed children out of independent schools, now their SEND needs are to be met by the state.

      Fireworks

      By SophieA · Posted

      I completely agree with you - and last night was really terrible where I am. Between midnight and 1am was the worst, where it genuinely felt like a war zone. I had to run out of my house to try and stop a grown man setting them off in open space right by our front doors. In response he went to throw a half lit one at me and then seemed to think better of it. I am so sad at how bad the situation has got here and how selfish people are. Fireworks are bad for the environment and for pets and wildlife, as well as just being unnecessary noise for people too. I have sent an email today to Helen Hayes, which I have done previously on this issue. Would advise anyone to write to your MP to do the same, and to ask them to engage with the debates scheduled for 19 Jan.

      First mate - I wondered if I was imagining things at 4.45 this morning . Apparently not .
