Assuming the next round starts 1st June would anybody have a problem with me just posting my stuff up in my own thread with the understanding I'm using my lay under 1.5 system for the competition?
It got a bit tricky before and I took my eye off the ball massively when I need to be laser focused. Would enjoy being part of the competition again though.

Predict the Winners: Enter the 2025 Football Betting Challenge! :@Alastair-Todd impressive comeback!
Thanks Martin, a reasonable run over the last few days (although some of my 'non-competition' selections haven't fared as well!). As you know, however, all it takes is for the odd one or two to go south and you start dropping quite rapidly again. This 0.5 filter hasn't been quite as reliable as the 1.5 filter I used in the last round but perhaps it's only a matter of time.

@Alastair-Todd impressive comeback!
