Nothing doing again

[Richard Latimer]

COVID has absolutely decimated the schedule today:

[Richard Latimer]

Way too tired. Do it in the morning now.

[Richard Latimer]

Nothing presented itself in the end.ill post up for tomorrow later when everyone is in bed.

[Richard Latimer]

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.

[Richard Latimer]

@dave-hayes I find the Turkish 1 Liga pretty good too.

[A Former User]

@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

[Richard Latimer]

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.

[Richard Latimer]

Tomorrow looks interesting. I dare say the last interesting day before Christmas.

[Richard Latimer]

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.
