Plenty of football on tonight. I'll be at the Glentoran v Gzira United match. It is 2-2 from the 1st leag with all to play for.

Glens played well in the first leg. It was Glentoran's first competitive match of the season. The temperature was 32 degrees. A good result for us.

Hopefully we can do the business tonight.

Will go for Over 1.5 goals in this match and depending on the score will probably go for a SHG too

@Martin Go the Kiwis!

@Martin 1-0 NZ

Will need to see a bit of the play but Norway women look quite short today, got to think NZ will want to put up a good showing as hosts.

Defo want to see some action first though, see if they are overrun.

Is it me or do some of these summer leagues not have many midweek games? I only have one trade on my set and forgets today. I seem to remember more matches being played midweek in previous years, is that just me remembering wrong?

I've had hardly anything for weeks!

SHG in the Dinamo Tbilisi v Astana match. 1-0 at HT

1-1 you could go again

Scored again as I typed. 1-2

You could go again!

One step beyond! Never mind; still green for the day.

@Akiva-Anderson Well, of course I did (I only said probably.)

@Akiva-Anderson Ha, I was on a FHG in that one. Probably shouldn't push my luck!

Of course you should!

@Akiva-Anderson you have your own agency because of your trading and that's given you freedom to choose the job than have to do it!

Yes!

Also think the attitude of everyone I work with has changed. I'm open and honest about my trading. I never asked for a payrise, all I wanted was to be able to reduce my hours. I wanted a better work / life balance.

My holidays are superb! I'm off for a week in February, a week at Easter, 5 weeks off in the summer, a week at Halloween and two weeks at Christmas.

I think they know I could get up and leave at any point. It is great power to have!

hahaha

@Craig-vaulks Yea I agree with all your points there, they are just masters on that back stretch as well.

Rodri is a total and utter player too.

Anything over 2 with them at that stage would be a great trade, especially as then hopefully we will have a couple of nice moves so it will just be an extra play.

@Ryan it looks decent, I was thinking anything over 2 would be worth keeping an eye on.
Could city be a little complacent at the start after getting the treble last season?
After trying for so long to win the champions league, may have an effect.
I would not be surprised if the league is more more competitive this year in terms of it being more than a 2 horse race could be 3 or 4 for a good while, this time around.

@Trevor-H Oh, and do you literally make a living at this?

I do indeed. I'm still working part-time. I was hoping to give up working fully (this was my dream) and just concentrate on the trading. But, I don't need too, nor do I think I want to. I actually quite like my job and trading doesn't impinge on my part-time hours.

Weirdly, when I needed this job I hated it. Now that I don't need this job, I'm happier.
