    getting harder and harder mate, better sticking to stuff like basketball in my opinion, too many late goals and good sides under performing.

    made a season loss on soccer but am up a few thousand on the nba.

    The big Euro leagues are done, but there is still plenty of soccer to wager on during the summer.

    MLS
    Russia
    Argentina
    Brazil
    Norway

    Plenty if you do your homework and love betting the sport.

    Honestly, very good season for me in EPL.

    But, yes, Soccer = year-round. Long seasons. Euro mostly runs fall/spring. USA and others primarily a summer season.

    If you're a descent football capper you should never be down money at the end of the season. Even if you have a horrendous run somewhere in the middle of the season, there's about a billion different games/situations you can grind yourself back from.

    You still need inside info to be rich, but still you shouldn't be in the negative.

    Season is not over, it's just started!

    These leagues (Scandinavian and South America leagues) are much better then Major Leagues. Hard to find value in Major Leagues..but these leagues are very soft.

    , ALL the big teams fukked up a lot this year, man utd drew a lot away, chelsea lost a good few, arsenal lost a few, man city lost a few.

    in italy inter and ac lost a few.

    other leagues the same.

    hardest season for capping by far. wat about arsenal 4 up against newcastle. or newcastle up 3 yeasterday?

    if you were up then i think you are a really good capper.

    in my opinion the mls is a the fukkin worst league to bet on the planet.

    the quality is getting better but its just like the aussie leage = id rather watch paint dry.

    the german 2nd and 3rd league are the best for me, loads of goals scored.

    Betting big favorites is NOT the way to make money in soccer.

    Been a good season for me personally, made some decent coin. But it's not over yet, Scandinavian leagues just started.

    Soccer probably has most betting opportunities compared to any sport year around although so many lines its mind boggling
    I think it is like anything else you must zero in on one or two leagues only to have a chance to win or have some system

    I agree with Sanka, no Value in big teams and parleys is just pure luck, live betting for me works best

    Agreed betting favourites in football is the wrong way to go, for the value you get, they will let you down in the long run.

    Not necessary if you're willing to do the research, there are plenty of opportunities in lots of different leagues. Zeroing in on a few leagues only denies you those opportunites.

    Obviously if you know a league well you have an advantage, but you have to realise the books and linesmakers know that league just as well. Biggest risk there is that you start to rely on your knowledge too much without doing the propper research.

    Up, up, up from the Premier League this season Rarely touched foreign leagues or Champions League (was definitely down in Champions League and Europa League). Of all the sites I used for tips, PremiershipTips.com was far and above the most consistent and profitable.... behind this forum of course Thanks for a great season guys, see you again in August for some more money making

    Up overall mainly from EPL, but down in almost every other league over the course of this season.
