@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.

Something I am thinking about today and would like the group's thoughts on.
When a new league gets added to the software, do you test it individually itself for your proven strategies or would you trade it if it popped up in your filters straight away?

Wasn’t that champions league draw awful?!
Delighted Man City got Inter at Home, will try and get tickets for that

@Akiva-Anderson Whole thing sounds a bit weird but guess we'll see.

@Andy-Donnelly It's a good point, it plays into the downside element as well, I am thinking what if they don't do?
Whats got to happen for this trade to stay around this level?
Well by Xmas if Arsenal and Liverpool are pushing them it'll be close that'll work.
-
@Ryan I’m not convinced that the city charges will be solved this season. This is the first case related to FFP where a team hasn’t pleaded guilty. So can imagine if they are found guilty, that there will be an appeal and then a further court of arbitration appeal as well if needed
-
@Martin Thats what I mean, they've both pushed City in the last few years and been there or there abouts come May, but with the drop of the potential points for City could be huge.
Wouldn't also surprise me if they focused more on the champs league and rested players in the league.
-
Surely City is a value lay to win the league?
It's currently 2.56 to lay, the charges against them this year will come to roost and I cannot see the league relegating them etc... no chance of that but I think there will be a huge points deduction.
Even if they got 10 points for example they'd have not won the league in the last few seasons...

@Akiva-Anderson in Ireland today and Drogheda v Sligo rovers has popped up on my over 2.5 goals filter, maybe I should pop up from Dublin to watch it!
Just seen this finished 7-0!

@Tony-Hastie I've only been doing this less than a year never experienced it being down in that time, what happens to people's trades when the exchange goes down?
Strongly recommend having a few quid in Smarkets or Betdaq to lay off a bet and insure against any Betfair downtime, it doesn't seem to happen often at the moment but can go crazy on Saturday in particular I find.

You should’ve said you were in Dublin! We could’ve met up!!
Drogheda is a shithole, but they’re fighting relegation, while Sligo are pushing for a European place.
such a whistlestop tour with me out Friday afternoon back already! Next time will let you know.
-
@Simon-Bates if any bets bet were matched before it went down then they are honoured (from my experience anyway). So if you were matched at O 2.5 goals for example, you will either get the full return or lose your full stake depending on the final result.
-
@Simon-Bates Cant say I know more than you sorry mate. My saving grace is most my bets are automated and never went on in the first place as the market was suspended.
