Aug 2024 £3000 - ? Bank Challenge

As I mentioned, unlike all other years before, if an opportunity comes up on any of these 3 games tomorrow I will make the trade.
I am here and in the moment. It's my last Christmas as a complete family before I have to move out BUT......I am already so far out of the moment that all this is just for the kids.
Currently the wife is asleep in bed and I'll soon be retiring to my mattress on the floor in my 9 yr old daughters bedroom.
Priority since Dec has been to start making money and while it hasn't always gone to plan the massive strides made in search of that explosion are clear for me to see.
So tomorrow is about playing games and helping out with lego while eating and drinking too much for sure.
But 3 matches monitered for a favourable HT position won't change any of that.

@dave-hayes I find the Turkish 1 Liga pretty good too.
-
@Richard-Latimer Turkish Super Lig is becoming a favourite of mine for sure.So I might have a look latter today and see if they are worth it for tomorrow
-
Nothing on Christmas Eve but oddly enough thanks to the Turks there are 3 potentials i'll be glancing at Christmas Day. Ordinarily I wouldn't bother but this year is very very different and so a few minutes out of my day to check if there's an opportunity won't harm.
I'll post in the day tomorrow.

Bank falls back to £235.62. Now, if I can somehow make it to £250 by the end of this year I will be immensely happy and view this is a springboard to better things made possible by more sensible choices.
Loss of £15.29 on the day.

1/2 today with a late late goal in Utrecht saving my blushes and keeping me on course, just, for a green Dec.
I learnt something else from the data today also. Something which perhaps should have been blindingly obvious but.....
At the end of the FH in Karagumruk they finished with 9 men. Surely a 2nd goal should be a shoe in for 11 against 9. Well no, it turns out. Also, a quick look back through my data shows 45 qualifiers with FH reds. NOT A SINGLE ONE WITH 2 REDS. Talk about an outlier but this was a massive one. I repeat, not a single qualifier from over 1K games where there were 2 FH red.
Needless to say I won't be doing that again and in hindsight it most certainly did NOT qualify.
-
Tomorrow looks interesting. I dare say the last interesting day before Christmas.
-
I can't put anything else into this for a time and in any case I'm over halfway to the point where I said I wouldn't be investing. Think my plan will be to invest another £20 max in the next month and only then if I need to.

Football slowly drying up on the way to Christmas so what happens tomorrow will be massive. Can't really expect for a winning weekend anymore but I can get back close to where I was at the beginning of Friday if the reequired HT scenarios appear. Currently bank is £6.06 in the green for December.
Ideally I can flesh it out but what I don't want to happen is for it to go the other way. Of course if it does it does, I know anything can happen but if I stick to the plan, stick to the data and don't ignore any concerns then it's probable rather than possible.
Finish off the year well and I can point to 4 months profit and only 1 very bad month close to the beginning. It's a springboard for what has to happen next.
-
6/6 today in terms of the actual data. Melbourne was missed as already mentioned many times over and Scotland League One gets another win although lots more data needed before the league can be considered. Then it will probably be a case of poor liquidity but who knows.
-
Despite a horrendous start to the weekend yesterday and missing the Aussie league this morning I am back ahead for the month precariously. It's a small amount but oh so very very important psychologically as much as anything else.
With the only potential left for the day looking like being no good at HT it's 4/4 today and very welcome after yesterday.
-
Here's the rest:
Annoying missing the Melbourne game but when you've been sleeping on a mattress as long as I have and you get a chance to sleep in an actual bed (my son was away at his grandparents) you find it incredibly hard to get up haha!
