So tomorrow is another bucket of sweet FA again. Basically Telstar on the ELO's. That's it unless Kuwait is inplay properly which it very rarely is these days. Also not even sure on how Kuwait has performed.

[Richard Latimer]

Nothing has qualified yet today. Just Lillestrom as a potential on the ELO front.

[Richard Latimer]

Paraguay comes through. I like this league.

[Richard Latimer]

Sad state of affairs recently.

As documented in the football thread I'm sick of Romania Liga 2 now. Gone from being a league I could trust to WTF is happening now!?

Sport Huancayo are winning so only leaves Guarani is a possible and Paraguay touch wood has been good.

On the last sheet running from May 19 to July 20 I had 6 winners and 2 losers for a small profit. Since then 4 winners and 2 small losers for another small profit.

[Richard Latimer]

So looking at the overnighters, Ecuador proved as inconsistent as ever. There's now been 4 wins and 4 losses. Of which 3 were minor and 1 more substantial. I didn't post this as I had no intention of being on it regardless of what tiime it was.

Of the games I am interested in Romania starts at 17:30.

Another miserable day. Zizkov I've already covered but this weekend in general wasn't great. A late lay of Nacional was odds on but then they went 0-2 down and just when I thought I was out for a scratch @ 1-2 VAR reared its ugly head!

Variance is a bitch for sure!

Not much for tomorrow. I'll post in the afternoon.

[Richard Latimer]

Too late to do anything about Zizkov but I've made a small adjustment to the ELO. It's something I've been thinking about for a while but now I've analysed it properly there doesn't seem any rational argument against.

ELO difference of 100-105 removed.

Since August this has been a losing proposition but that's not a reason in itself. No, I went back and analysed my old sheet and removing these numbers takes away £1.20 of my lovely profit. Not only that but it amends figures as follows:

S/r up from around 72.5%-73.10%
Yield up from 15.75%-16%
Average odds up very slightly from 2.66-2.68.

Small differences last year but essentially risking to gain nothing all year and this year that nothing is a loss.

[Richard Latimer]

Need to try and be up early. Bed soon:

[Richard Latimer]

First losing day in a bit. Not a heavy one. See if tomorrow brings anything.

[Richard Latimer]

Few potentials for tomorrow. Not bad for an international week:

[Richard Latimer]

Only this for tomorrow but I'll be in bed:

[Richard Latimer]

No ELO's tomorrow and so may be time for an early night.

[Martin]

@richard-latimer great news!

[Richard Latimer]

Thanks to a Larne comeback we're building some momentum again here. Another green day.

[Richard Latimer]

Just the one trade again today after Eindhoven won easily and I stayed out of Dundalk.

Laid Boa @ 0-1 and then re-layed @ 0-2. Goal back almost immediately so took red for around 1/4 point loss. Brusque still appeared dominant so on 90 mins and with price @ 1.16 I laid again as barely an increase in red.

Last minute goal and turned the 1/4pt red into around 0.75pts green in the end.

[Richard Latimer]

ELO's

Won't be jumping on Dundalk unless inplay stats too good to miss:

[Martin]

@richard-latimer good to hear!
