A 115-pick sample is far too small to establish an edge. We publish it because a prediction page without a record is advertising, not analysis — not because it predicts what the next hundred will do.

HOW WE WRITE PREDICTIONS

Four rules we do not break

Editorial, not automatedEvery pick is written by a named analyst who states the reasoning. Nothing here is generated from an odds feed or a model output we cannot explain.
One market, one priceWe name the market and the bookmaker offering the best price at the time of writing. If the price has moved by more than a tick, the pick is marked stale.
Published recordWins and losses are settled to level stakes and published below, including the months that went badly.
No tipping servicePredictions are free, there is no premium tier, and we do not sell picks. They exist to show how we read a market, not to promise returns.
Responsible gambling

A prediction is an opinion, not a forecast

Nobody on this page knows what will happen. Stake what you would be content to lose, keep your unit size the same whether a pick is one bar of confidence or three, and never increase it to recover a losing week.
