@martin-walker alternative trade to lower liabilities would be to;
Back plus 2 goals at HT for 0.3pts
Back plus 2 goals at 60mins for 0.3pts
On 60mins Que Lay current score for 0.6pts @ 1.9
Green up or remove red on first goal, let trade run for 1pt red (ish when lay bet is matched at 1.98) or for possible scratch or 2 late goals for double bubble
When Lay is matched at 1.9 let trade run regardless.
Am still toying with 0.25pts back bet on the plus 2 goals and lay 0.5pts at 1.98... Should be convinced by end of month which I feel is the better option

Really fancied it but price kept me out

@keith-anderson You should charge for these tips...the hit rate is pretty good and I have only been o this site a month. Many thanks
I would never charge. I think it’s unethical

@martin-walker The space Chelsea are being given in the centre, it's asking for trouble.

You could argue spurs have potentially the best attack in the world and this is how mourinho plays them. Absolutely horrible to watch

@martin-futter i had a great start to january and i think its because i was consciously trying to beat this number
Also the end of the month wasnt great, possibly confidence setting in and me not focussing on the original goal of less mistakes
-
@martin-futter They said it was a misunderstanding ... have to admit I nearly cried then ha ha

CONFESSION TIME:
Don't be too hard on yourself if you make a mistake. You will make lots of mistakes when trading. You'll may even make lots of trading mistakes in the one day. The trick is start minimising the mistakes you make over time. Of course, no matter how good or successful you are at trading, you'll never be error free. I found this out the night before last when I was trading the Coppa Italia match between Inter Milan v Juventus. I had just LCS in the Blackpool match and it was looking like a loss. I switched my attention to the Coppa Italia match thinking I could minimise my loss on the Blackpool game. Of course, Blackpool scored (so I didn't even need to carry out the trade in the Inter match). I was chasing a loss. I also thought the Coppa Italia game was over one leg - like the previous round. It wasn't! I could've / should've got out of that trade on two occasions - I didn't.
I wouldn't like tell people how much I lost, it was a substantial sum of money. Of course I made it back, plus more last night, but that's not the point. I gave myself a hard-time, but I have to remember, it's been a long time since I made such a big mistake.
When you lose, don't lose the lesson. Hit the rest button. Reflect, introspect and self-correct.
Really useful to know. I beat myself up when I make mistakes even though I make way less than I did but you're the first person to admit this is something which will NEVER entirely go away. It shows that in spite of this you can still be successful.
