@Shannon-Townsend Looks like next week for the beta testing if today's email is anything to go by

Saw a youtube video floating around about backtesting being nearly there... got a date for us @Martin
-
@Richard-Latimer Agreed! I still dont think united will be back they are still united and theres a fair bit of work to do yet... they'll likely get champs league.
-
@Ryan amazing goals but we beat ourselves yesterday. Painful.

My gloating looked much better before yesterday. Man Utd becoming a more serious proposition again is just so annoying

@Richard-Latimer Not looking likely at this rate, they should have put Burnley, Leeds and Sunderland away and thats and extra 6 points which would have had them sitting better.

@Akiva-Anderson Majorly! I still think they might bumble their way to 5th and get champs league though.
@Ryan what about Liverpool? Will they manage to get champs league football next year?!

@Akiva-Anderson Have Ineos had any real success in any of their sporting ventures? Glazers have played a blinder tho. Still majority owners and leave ineos to take most of the heat
Cycling, I think. That Swiss team that they own got promoted under them, but both Nice and United are awful. The Glazers would be mad to give up United, I'm sure they will at some stage, but it's the family piggy bank for years

Man United are a disaster, aren't they?!

When you got skin in the game, you stay in the game
But you don’t get a win unless you play in the game... -
@Stuart-Capstick said in *****New Football Thread*****:
To help people see how systems work: If you have a strategy which wins 80% of the time and your total data set is 500 matches, you can expect to have a losing run of 4 in a row.
This doesn't mean that you won't then get another three losers in a row etc. 80% SR means 20% of the time you lose. Those losses can come in clusters. In fact, they will come in clusters; it would be very unlikely if they didn't.

Another great weekend for SHG's

@Alex-Rendell Agreed (again) but having won about £60 on slots today and all three O1.5 trades winning, albeit at smaller stakes, I have steadied the ship somewhat. Yesterday was a bad patch generally - onwards now!
I had to exclude myself from slots

@Alastair-Todd good man
although there’s the further argument that you shouldn’t be doing all your losing at higher stakes and then trying to win it back at lower stakes..but that’s often easier said than done! -
@Alex-Rendell Agreed Alex - that's why I'm back on it this afternoon but with 1% stakes rather than 2%
-
@Alastair-Todd 53% simply cannot continue, so you’re in for an inevitable upturn at some point. Abandoning it now will only cement the loss and mean you’ll definitely miss the turnaround…this is why so many people fail at this game!!
