Brighton losing their top midfielders and being top of the league after the first two games (still too early), with a total of 8 goals scored (which is the highest so far by any club) is a great feat. The club is one of the best managed in the league with the little resources available to them.
And now resources are coming as well, that transfer fee for Caicedo was a real robbery and I don't understand why would Chelsea ever agree to deal like that.

Brighton plays really good football and they are a joy to watch. That being said they had maybe the easiest opening 3 fixtures in the league but then they fixtures turn really bad. We shall see how will they be able to handle those opponents that are on their level or better.

Brighton from the last year shows that no matter who plays they have like 10+ player into the rotation that can play equal every game, and plus you can see also they change the manager and still play better than before, that its a freaking good TEAM with all the leters.

I was scared to pick them to win this weekend against an obviously tough opponent but they ended up blowing Wolves away.

Slow start to the season but still very recoverable.

I can say that for two weeks in Manchester United's matches the referee decisions have been like a scandal. This time a very clear penalty wasn't given to Manchester United. In my opinion Manchester United could have got a comfortable win if they managed to get ahead in the match. Lastly if you haven't seen Mitoma's great goal today I absolutely recommend you to watch it.

Early scare for the Reds. Goals must flow today, I'm expecting Newcastle to show their credentials, Spurs to find a way past United with a new future without Kane -- oh, and there's the business of Liverpool. Can't believe they're still a stronger favourite than Chelsea after their preferred midfield acquisitions chose Igebotz blue...

You can't blame the 19-25 age group players for picking Chelsea over Liverpool; they weren't alive when Liverpool dominated the league in the 1970s and 1980s, but they all watched Chelsea dominate the league in the 2000s. Having said that, I'm confident that our L.F.C midfield will break every other midfield this season. Our title charge will begin tomorrow.

Bournemouth are shit!

Limit it a bit man, otherwise I'm taking this one Grin

Too easy to take advantage of the rules you put in place to create an 'unwinnable' ticket - like this one.

Done! 1mbtc for that you posted, I pay when the ticket loses haha.

I know it's too easy, curious to see what people make out of it, and what markets they take. I would have gone for reds in 2 games to keep it simple but yours looks pretty winnable heh heh

You were actually really close to this one Grin
Adingra scored and Jebbison did not play, so it would have been voided.

I always felt confident in Liverpool conceding though. It's the safest bet on the market currently.

I have added to the spreadsheet. Good luck. I'm feeling like my job is going to be much more difficult this season compared to the previous season. Especially the performance you have shown in BSFL scares me. Smiley

Luck couldn't have had a stronger role in any of that. 5 more rounds there and 37 more in this pool -- destiny is far from written, good luck!

Great! I did not know that. Welcome to the team. Now even if I lose the sidebet with you, I will have no regret after all you are my team mate 😘

As there are many friends of mine who support Liverpool I also started to support Liverpool. On top of that it is still a popular topic among the supporters here that Liverpool won against Beşiktaş by 8-0 in the Champions League groups.

Fine haha, let's do it. Add me to your spreadsheet. I know I had a bad start but you know, I'm counting on some major upsets this season, might as well add another layer of money to back it!

I dont see the game at all, but one question, Sheffield keeps playing ultra defensive way like a few years ago when they were on Premier League for the last time?.
Its a good thing to know for the future.

Nothingam Forest its a enigmatic team for me, because they have very good games sometimes and in other they are trash, but player like Morgan Gibbs White when they are turned on, are really dangerous, and Awoniyi a very strong number 9.

So one week passed extremely fast and tomorrow we will have again Premier League action.It is Nottingham vs Sheffield United,two teams that have lost their first games and will be fighting hard to collect their first ever points of this new season Premier League.Based on what I saw in the first game it looks like Sheffield United has not upgraded their team to fill a super fast rhythm and great play of the Premier League,they lost at home against Crystal Palace and this make me think that it will be extremely difficult for them to win away in tomorrow game.
Nottingham Forest earned their first three points of the season against Sheffield United in their second Premier League encounter. In terms of ball possession, both teams attempted, but Nottingham Forest appears more prepared for Premier League football than Sheffield United because they created more chances than Sheffield United, despite their efforts to keep the game 1-1. Unfortunately, Chris Wood scored the game-winning goal in the 89th minute, giving Nottingham Forest their first three points of the season.

Nottingham Forest was overall in the game much better then Sheffield. Notthingham forest really pushed with the attacks and was able to score a great goal in the end. I think that Sheffield will probobly be relegated fast this season.Started this round amazing with another perfect result,so i hope tommorows results be good aswell.

So are you ready to watch Chelsea not get another 3 points this week? It would have been perfect if Liverpool won last week but oh well Cool I need West Ham to get atleast a draw in the next fixtures

I think Nottingham Forest is better then Sheffield and i think they might win by a small difference against Sheffield. It will be a close match but i think they can take ,both teams are looking for points in the league to try and remove those zero points from the league table. But i think Forest will take all three

Well statistically Nottingham Forest is way better with alot more chances and yeah they were pretty lucky with that late minute goal. There goes my 1.5 point from the draw. Alot of people were expecting Nottingham to win and yeah they ended up winning on that last minute, pretty lame  Roll Eyes

Liverpool is my favourite team this season. In fact we made a similar side bet with Hhampuz about this topic. What do you say for a similar side bet to the one in last year as you are much more challenging in the pools this season?

Blades were pretty damned good in some parts of the Championship but yeah, Nottingham Forest finally have some semblance of a team after the weird Frankenstein assembly of last season. I think they'll get a solid win too.

@un_rank these sidebets are made on gentlemen's agreement -- you don't pay up, you lose reputation. That's quite powerful at this forum.
The reputation worth five figure x than the amount were risked in some cases the reputations are something that is even can not be lost or sell for any amount of money.

Liverpool is my favourite team this season.

I do want to satisfy you and since you have a spreadsheet... which is your favourite team? I can bet Liverpool will get fewer cards AND bigger goal difference than yours if it's not City Wink

Sure, I am aware of how sidebets work, we were discussing how best to record them; in a spreadsheet or a thread.

If there are many people who want a subject to be created I can do it. If there is someone who wants me to add to the spreadsheet it is enough to just tag me to the post. I will have seen it thanks to the telegram bot.

A draw seems like an expected result and I will expect it to be a low scoring one or even a goalless one. Predictions matter little when the whistle is blown for kickoff and the match can swing whichever way.

@colorpoll54 I certainly remember you now. Hopefully you learn and see how nice things can be when everyone is civil =)

Although I have made so many side bets this season I'm still not satisfied due to not being able to make a side bet with buwaytress. Tongue

It doesn't need to be heavily moderated to work, it's just about the OP stating the rules of engagement in the thread in the first post...
The thread creator will also expect to personally scrape finalized bets from the different threads cause many users will not report their bets there, not by choice but cause they forgot about the thread at the time when the sidebet was made.
With careful planning and effort from the OP, it can work.

I think you're getting my idea quite in a wrong way, the OP doesn't have to monitor anyone's side bets for them, it's literally going to be an open thread for those who have proposed sidebets to each other on any thread, La Liga, Premier League, BSFL just any thread, having proposed their bets terms and agreement on those thread, the side bets thread would only serve as a thread for documentation, and it's not going to have 50 post in just one or two days because there shouldn't be any form of multiple discussions there, just one party posting the details of their already agreed bet terms, and the opponent quote the post as an indication of accepting the bet, when the bets eventually gets settled, it takes just one of both parties to state that the bet have settled/paid.



Man City are finally have two European titles right, I was actually anxious that the same fate of the shield could end repeating it self, and that would have been such a blow because who knows when next they'll get the chance for another one, but as fate would have it, they were the one who had to come from behind this time around, so they won the penalties, while it was vice versa against Arsenal.

I'm sure every Man City fan or player would pick this victory over that one against Arsenal.
