@Martin I will take selections on a case by case basis. Since there are less of them popping up you can deep dive a bit more.
Had South Shields v Buxton on a FHG filter for inplay and I think the National League is so far removed from the big leagues I decided to take it.
Only about £500 matched which I guess can be annoying as you move into bigger staking and scaling.
Do you and anyone else think that during these periods that the lower league games liquidity and odds get distorted by big boy/girl traders dropping £100s into relatively small games?

International break just as the season gets started.........
Awful, isn't it?
Means I have to dip down the leagues
-
@Alex-Rule nah, amount I miss out on would be negligible and I like Keith's thinking. By and large if it's not on betfair then it's more than likely a potential risk to my bank rather than an opportunity.
-
Has anyone else played around with other exchanges for leagues for specific games that don't seem to appear in Betfair?
Smarkets seems to have more games listed from the - Primera B Nacional and Primera B Metropolitana leagues with 6 games vs 2 on Betair?
Do people feel like they are missing out on ops due to Betfair occasional poor listings or do people shop around regularly?
-
@Akiva-Anderson very poor you may as well pack it in
-
Made 60% of my starting bankroll for August. Mad that I actually describe that as a poor month now.
-
@Alastair-Todd sometimes Betfair gives them strange names which makes them hard to search for and they don't always cover their lower leagues.
-
The Finland leagues have some very quick first goal times. I am covering three games from my filter but all of them went unmatched as the goals came too early. Eleven goals between three of them by half time! Bizarrely I couldn't find one of the on Betfair at all for some reason.

@Ryan Just looking at the premier league odds as well. What price do you think Arsenal would be if city didn’t have those charges hanging over them?
Can’t help feel that arsenals odds look overly short assuming I’m right that man city points deductions don’t come this season

@Akiva-Anderson I am actually looking forward to the new format, the old group stage was a bit tired, sometimes those last 2 games were a bit painful, bit of a drag.
The draw itself was underwhelming. A lot of it automated.
This is basically the ‘European Super League’ now. It’ll be harder for smaller teams to qualify.
I’ll happily give it a try. It’ll be good for trading I think.
That was exactly my thought. They've basically snuck a European Super League in without us noticing. It could be interesting. Backup keepers and fringe squad players won't get such a look in now that's for sure.
