There we go, 10 years today. It’s a decade isn’t it? (I wouldn’t go that far, Dave).
10 years betting for a living. If Year 8 was horrible & Year 9 was fun, what was Year 10? Boring. Only my 7th best financially. No huge wins, no horror downswings, all completely unspectacular.

9 years done. If the 8th year threw every possible shitstorm at me that it could manage (and it really did), the 9th has been a celebration of withstanding all that. What a fun year, full of reminders that I'm so lucky to be able to do what I enjoy, on my own terms. On to Year 10

What’s Year 11 going to be about? Time for a bit of future proofing. Put myself out there a bit more. Be available for some consultancy, consider on-course pitches, do more paid media/pods. Try to reduce my betting income to taxable income ratio from 9:1 to nearer 4:1 in a year.

If year 10 was boring, year 11’s going to be revolutionary! For 10 years my stock reply to things has been thanks but no thanks. It’s time to start saying yes a bit more.Change makes it impossible to go stale. And as Conor McGregor said, I’d like to apologise to absolutely no one

The big four are Arsenal, Liverpool, Brighton and Bournemouth now and we better get used to it

Really warmed into it at Wrexham. Feared for him initially but faultless after a nervy start.

There have been many mysterious TV match selection decision over the years but the decision not to show the best team in Non-League against a fairly recent FA Cup winner is utterly astounding

Didcot Parkway. Every train stops. No one ever gets on, no one ever gets off. It’s some kind of government experiment.

This. Doing something once, twice, three times in a row even, is impressive, nice for the CV & may well *increase the chance* of it happening again. But it guarantees nothing. Drives me insane when I hear football fans talking in absolutes. ‘Parker guarantees promotion’? My arse.
“Three promotions will lead to an idea that Parker will guarantee promotion, which is a myth in itself. Gary Rowett guaranteed survival, until he managed three teams in two seasons who were all relegated. These are lazy tropes that simplify football & management to a huge degree”

You cannot get more *football* than that 90 seconds at Fratton Park. No other sport does draw to should be loss to win in 90 seconds like that

Burnley keeper looked dodgy against us, then saw him at Lincoln where he was terrible, and wtf has he just done there? They're in enough trouble as it is without persevering with Weetabix hands
