Hi guys, what kind of spreadsheet you use? Can you give me a model? Thanks

My spreadsheet is in my signature. A little too complicated for some but it's all just basic formulas added to what I've copied from ratings page and exported from filters.

So are Dundalk good for an equaliser? Been burnt by this league more than once.

Didn't realise it was the last game of their season. From what I can see, unless Waterford suddenly come back and then take an unlikely lead away to Finn Harps, Dundalk have no real need to try and get back in this. Currently they still qualify for Europe and Waterford the only ones who can change this. Does that sound about right?

Glad I stayed out. 0-2 it finishes.

Does anyone know what happened to Cork City in the last couple of years? They used to be title contenders. Just checked... they won the league in 2017 and finished runners up 2018, but last year they suddenly dropped a lot and finished just above the relegation line, and then this year they just totally bombed and finished last (although the season is cut in half, that is they usually play 4 times against each other, but no more matches seem to be scheduled so I guess it's over). Did they sell all their good players?

@barry-lanes Ive just started watching as it's on my 2nd half filter, Sundsvall nothing to play for but if it's lively I'll get involved around 70

They definitely seem interested in getting a goal from what I've seen so far which is good

Does anyone fancy Sundsvall getting back in this game, currently 1-0 down at HT ?

@ryan-carruthers maybe they will give some other players a chance lol in any job if someone is struggling surely the obvious thing to do is give them a rest. Managers making out they have to play the big names every game.

@chris-osborne Yep, I also think it's going to have a huge affect on teams going forward in seasons to come, how will teams manage the injuries this year? Players might play at 80% recovered, having a lasting impact on their fitness levels going forward in the seasons to come and they start picking up injuries more frequently.

@john-hurst I haven't seen the fixtures, Liverpool have so many injuries too

Think that’s going to be a sign of things to come this season. Evans was back yesterday but we’ve had our entire back four out the past few weeks as well as Ndidi.

Gives opportunities to others such as Fofana and Justin who probably wouldn’t have played a great deal this season.

The key this season is how teams react to injuries and also a squad system is going to be essential with so many games in so short a space of time

@ryan-carruthers they have a tough run coming up

Ryan

@John-Hurst what's the next run of games?

When I do these I like to look at the next 5 games see what sort of points they could get and see that of their challengers to try and work out what gap could be found.

Tottenham worth a small stake as league winners surely. 8.5 to back. With that attacking force anything is possible

With these I always think what odds would I lay at, if you would only lay shorter then take it.

A few more games than yesterday. I wont trade all of these, especially the split stake as most dont qualify, but the ones that do are pretty solid. As yesterday, the biggest thing for me is how the current scoreline & position reflects the intent i am seeing in-play, especially for LCS later in the SH. Brugge & Gent played in Europe mid-week so ill be more cautious with those 2 games in particular - lineups and tiredness being the 2 main factors

Only 1 of the Split Stake games was 0-0 at 30' and it had a goal on 39' so that was a winner. 5 of the 6 SH games had goals after 80' so decent results. The one that didnt was definitely one to avoid! It was mentioned in the forum about intention and i pointed out that only the away team had anything to play for. They went ahead after 3' and then nothing happened ALL game! I suggested if the home team went ahead then the game would be open up. I wasnt even sure if the stats were correct as they were so low so that was an easy one to dodge!

Not much on fir the next few days. International break is coming up so need to be wary just before, during and just after that
