Boards Football Betting League

eirebhoy

The forum seems to be getting busy of late and with the top European leagues starting this month I thought we might as well set up a little league.

1. All bets must be single bets with minimum Betfair odds of 1.45 (4/9)
2. The stake is simply between 1-10, depending on how strongly you feel about it and the value offered.

That's it. No minimum or maximum amount of bets.
The league table will be done up based on profit (ignoring the Betfair fee's).
We'll have a monthly league table and overall league table.

A sample of what you need to write would be:

League: International Friendly
Date: 12/08
Match: Ireland v Australia
Pick: Under 2.5 goals
Odds: 1.65
Stake: 6

So if that selection comes in you'll have a profit of 3.9.
If it loses you'll be on a loss of 6.

The above will be my 1st selection.

Good luck.

No limit. The league will be based on profit but I'll post up more stats as well so people can judge better who they might want to follow.

Odds on mine have changed now to 2.24, are we taking price at time of post? I'm just wondering because there might be no way of verifying it?
