Review for week ending 26/12/02

A very busy Christmas holiday period produced a multitude of bets but yet again we ended the week substantially down. The week started badly enough with the four weekend bookings index bets all losing. The Boxing day programme then produced six losing bets out of eleven with some good results (Man United / Middlesborough corner supremacy and bookings, Sunderland / Leeds bookings) being wiped out by some poor results when Forest lost 2-0 at Sheffield Wednesday, Coventry beat Reading 2-0 and Arsenal failed to register a single booking. Overall the week showed a loss of �1,390 which now means that the total profit for the season so far is �4,311 (an average profit of over �300 per week). These potential bets are determined using the guidelines on the Weekly Reviews page.

	A buy of the Leicester supremacy over Brighton at 0.6 with Cantor Sport (Soccer Spreads rating 1.03 - Makeup 1) for �130 per goal would have produced �52 profit.
