Rain Lover,

Many thanks. I have no experience with sprints having always avoided them. Why choose to punt on sprints? What is the advantage?

Can you explain what you mean by convertying ratings to prices as a bookie does - total = 120%. I'm new to the mysteries of bookmaking.

The tip about the spreadsheet is too true. I record bets in a notebook. Until I started recording it I had no idea how much I was losing. You can be deceived by psychologically satisfying but financially meaningless wins. You can seem to be winning when in fact over the long term you are way down. Must learn spreadsheet basics (or get the kids onto it).

Thanks again.
