PREMIER LEAGUE POINTS FORECAST UPDATE
Argh. Nothing worse than a week with no league action so what better time to update people with my software’s view of the current Premier League standings. I’ll probably, time and work permitting, get the odds relating to these updated and posted but for the time being here are the points updates. Same old story at the top of the division, as one would...
LATEST PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE FORECAST UPDATE
Plenty of football between now and Monday for everything to evolve that little bit more but the latest forecasts that have just popped out of my numbers show that Spurs’ draw today with Wolves has knocked a point off there expected points total. Minimal but obviously not insignificant given the opponents. Will leave the...
SPURS INCHING CLOSER TO SECOND
Quick update after last night’s game at White Hart Lane with an aim to contextualise how much closer that moves Spurs to the top two. I will, time permitting, also publish the prices associated with these forecasts. Check my Twitter feed or subscribe to this blog by using the Subscription feature in the top...
CHAMPIONSHIP WIDE OPEN AT HALFWAY MARK
First published in Racing & Football Outlook January 3-9, 2012 We are now past the halfway stage in the Championship so there’s no better time to look back over the last five months to see who has and who has not performed up to expectations and what that means for the second half of...
BAD NIGHT FOR UNITED BUT OVER-REACTION IN THE MARKET
An obviously interesting set of results last night most notably the game at St James’. My immediate analysis is that:- A/Spurs fans should calm down. That result makes the title no more likely but second place does become a more distinct possibility. B/ While the title is City’s to lose the margin of error...
UPDATED PREMIER LEAGUE FORECASTS 4/1/12
A new feature I’m keen to slowly start introducing to this blog are some of my points forecasts which I feature as part of my weekly Racing and Football Outlook column. I hope it goes without saying that I won’t be printing anything here that is exclusively for the paper, namely Index ratings, True...
VALUE LIES WITH UNITED AT THE TOP
First published in Racing & Football Outlook December 27, 2011-January 2, 2012 We might not yet be quite at the halfway stage in this season’s Premier League but that’s no reason not to take a whistle-stop tour through the significant parts of the division to assess what’s changed since August, and, more importantly, the...
ADDICKS TITLE PRICE IS AN EARLY XMAS GIFT
Racing & Football Outlook December 21-26, 2011 I hung my hat on Huddersfield at the start of the season and, although I’ve been able to lock in a fair bit of profit with them in the first part of the season, results have not gone well for the Terriers recently. A heavy defeat to...
TEAM FORM MEANS LITTLE IN ISOLATION
Racing & Football Outlook December 13-20, 2011 The double eviction of both Manchester clubs, City and United, from the Champions League last week into the depressing irrelevance that is the Europa League was met by the majority of people I know with a fair degree of amusement given the riches that both clubs –...
O’NEILL’S A TOP GAFFER BUT NO ROOM FOR SENTIMENT
Racing & Football Outlook December 6-12, 2011 After seemingly countless associations, negotiations and, ultimately, rejections and nearly 16 months out of management my favourite manager, Martin O’Neill, is back in the Premier League in charge of Sunderland. Over the years O’Neill has provided me with a small but profitable angle, where I simply bet...
