Liverpool back in it

Dodgy penalty by the sounds of it and not even at the Kop end!

Price has now collapsed to 2.08, hope you were following the Football Trader - stay invested

tick tock get on Liverpool

Price is growing all the time 3.35 now available...

Surely they can't lose this?

Time to get back in the chair

So, I have made my first tip for a number of months below and have recently got the taste for updating my blog again.

The trading hasn't stopped, but without the discipline of maintaining my blog I have quickly slipped back into bad habits and have been all over the place in terms of selections and staking plans.

A decent Saturday when I managed to turn £25 into £300 got my juices flowing as the cut and thrust of Football trading came to the fore.

I rode the waves of Norwich's 7 goal romp against Paulton Rovers, always seemingly one step ahead of the layers as a number of late goals increased profits.

Ignoring all of my own advice I then lumped the whole of my paltry bankroll (£160) on Man City to beat Burnley at 1.35, and at 2-0 down stormed out of my flat swearing profusely..

My mood improved after a quick trip to the shops to find that Man City were 3-2 up. A harsh lesson was learned a few days previously when a big win on Liverpool(v Lyon) was snatched away from me when I neglected to lay off my bet in the closing minutes and against my better instincts I layed off my City bet at 1.13.

Burnley's excellent equaliser meant I got my stake back and out of jail.

With feelings of luck still flowing through my veins I nipped up to the pub to watch Arsenal at Wolves.

Backing goals at all levels in running was a good move as no goals in the first 25 minutes saw the prices rack up quickly and also a small bet on Fabregas to get the first goal all proved profitable and reminded me that sometimes being a lucky punter is better than being a good one!

With typical greed I was more disappointed with the chances that Arsenal squandered as a 6th goal in the game would have been worth £250.

Anyway back to tonight, and it is worth drip feeding bets on Liverpool as their price will move Northwards very quickly - @2.74 as it stands

Liverpool faltering again

Rafa Benitez has been put under increasing pressure by his namesake Christian Benitez as Birmingham have pegged back a mis-firing Liverpool at half time in the Monday night clash at Anfield.

Just before the break Cameron Jerome has compounded the misery at Anfield and given Birmingham a 2-1 lead.

You would expect an early goal by David Ngog to settle any nerves that might have been circulating around Anfield - but no.

A half fit Steven Gerrard has now been pressed into service to rescue the Reds.

I would still expect Liverpool to exert their dominance in the second half and they are available to back at 2.66 at Betfair - time to get stuck in!
