@Tony-Hastie haha brilliant yes that counts! Have you been forward testing them? I am looking at a handful that were doing well but I have not tested since August, so I am going to test them moving forward and see how they get on.

I've created a spreadsheet for anyone who wants to have a look at what I am doing: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1rO--lA-RazH6WrqV9ZflwRTJCPnACyFWO9e_wygEgmo/edit?gid=0#gid=0

I'll clean it up a bit as I go and make it easier to read.

@Martin Ive chucked a stack of strategies in the software from all parts of the internet(and some of my own) in anticipation of the football back testing....does that count?

@Ryan

Part of the reason why Musk is going after Starmer is the Online Safety Act, which could lead to the government claiming 10-15% of the revenue of social media companies not sufficiently protecting users. The EU will likely toughen its stance, hence why Musk is going after German leaders and why France is strengthening its media laws.

Anyone been testing any of the old set and forget strategies recently?

Going to revive some of the strategies I was tracking last year that did well.

@Richard-Latimer He is mental, he wields a lot of people now it's scary how much power he already has.

He is literally posting memes about the leader of the UK who are supposed to have a great relationship with his country and government of which is now part of. Mental.

Ryan

@Akiva-Anderson That is true, everything is going up and I don't think it's going to stop.

I can't see how anybody stops increasing prices for anything, it's brutal out there.

Richard Latimer

@Ryan it's the idea of providing financial support (like he needs it) to probably the most dangerous man in the planet right now.

He can literally buy anything and anyone he wants right now. Talking about l liberating us from our tyrannical government like it's every day. And not an act of war.

All billionaires are shady. He is next level.

@Ryan said in *****New Football Thread*****:

@Richard-Latimer Its tricky because these football teams are deep rooted into communities that have certain beliefs.

It's not really the same with the US sports, we've seen that where they take the brand and basically move the team away from the place it's been rooted.

LA Rams for example. Among others.

They're already doing things that the communities don't want - like increasing ticket prices. 14 clubs in the Premier League are under American ownership.

@Akiva-Anderson not sure I could continue to support Arsenal if Kroenke sold to Musk.

Of course you could. Football teams are for life. Support the team, not the regime

It depends. Support the people trying to remove him yes. Support a far right wing despot no.

@Ryan My cousin said he would genuinely have to find another club to support.

Not a proper supporter then. Though I would understand their predicament

Ryan

@Akiva-Anderson Not a chance, you seen the actual comments lol

Akiva Anderson

Elon Musk to Liverpool?!

Ryan

@Richard-Latimer Oh yes with a game in hand I'd take that.

Ryan

@Akiva-Anderson Agreed, but we waltzed in like we were going to beat them and it was already done before a ball was kicked, even the crowd felt it.

Weird. We always do that against them.

Richard Latimer

@Ryan exactly

The gap is still 6pts
