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.

    • It’s full-on consumerism season now until, well, Easter probably.  
    • Well thanks for enriching the conversation.  Would you chuck Fah - rage in too for his tax avoidance on his property?   I expect it was lead story on Jeremy Vine too.  Doesn't make it a story, just a bit more of BBC tabloid style sensationalism.  There are numerous real news stories in the UK and across the world.  And now, apt for Halloween, you have summoned up the ghost of Louisa. So for the third time, will you now eat humble pie?
