Not really something I've explored to be honest, John.
But, I've often wondered if it would be a value punt if you saw the main goalscorer was on the bench pre kick-off. His odds would be higher. Chances are he may be introduced second half and, if playing lower opposition, score. After all, he may be benched for that reason.
E.g. Juventus are playing the bottom team, Ronaldo is rested on the bench. 0-0 HT, he comes on...
His odds prior to kick-off would be far more profitable than if he started. If he didn't get a run out, you'd get your money back. -
4 games for me:
These are good for 2 SH goals and/or LCS on 60' or 70'

@stuart-capstick Think that's why Liverpool let him go, on his day what a player!
-
@john-hurst Ahhh we all have that story don't we!
-
@stuart-capstick not sure i have what it takes there mate, can you trade gs markets in play? would feel more of a punt i think

@stuart-capstick you have been poor, west ham too. If callum wilson gets chances he will score but its just getting him those chances thats the problem.
Excellent spot there, John. You should have a think about trading on the goalscorer markets.

@terry-cooke hey mate Peru. I’m the same as you it throws up a lot of matches but I’m happy to ignore a lot of them cause you kinda know that they are not going to go in play and quality more over quantity.
Ah yes, im on that one too

liking the lay price on west ham- currently 2.06. Just dont see west ham winning this one
As a Newcastle supporter, I'm very disappointed to admit that the only person we have who can actually play football is Shelvey. Even then, it's fair to say his brain works part-time only.

@terry-cooke another 5 out of 5 today on the FHG’s also and I think like you mate that’s 13 in a row with 1 to go tonight at 9pm. Been an interesting change of mindset by just focusing on them after fighting with them for ages.
Nice mate, glad you're doing well with it. I have had to amend my filter, it was brining up too many results which I was attempting to get on, but the games didn't go in play in BF.
What game you got at 9?
-
@martin-futter it’s pretty much (speaking for myself) the same strategy and filter you put up about a month ago that the guy (who’s name escapes me now) was interviewed over. I just deleted his odds range from my filter but it’s pretty much the same I think
80%+ overall O0.5 FHG 1+ goals average overall for FH average time of first goal 15+ and 4 min out of last 5 matches Home & Away both teams to have scored. The bubble will burst shortly I’m sure but at the moment the bank is increasing nicely and it’s working well with other stuff going on.
Was so close to tossing the FHG’s in the bin. -

Funny isn't it, testing a FHG filter was going to scrap it and it has just had 14 winners in a row after 15 mins!

So much action and only 2 games to trade today....sitting on your hands is boring sometimes!
I think this is probably the hardest part of trading.
Got that right but it's necessary. I'm using the time to add some detail to my spreadsheet and watch football.
Sure is. I’ve cut down a lot of selections from my main filter, stopped trading a filter I was running so now I’m getting less selections but a better hit rate. Doesn’t help with international break. Other than that I’m just collecting loads of data

Yeah it’s not easy, the filters and actual trades I think is easier than people think whilst the patience, discipline is infinitely harder than people think
