Return to Oz and the Michael Wray Experiment.

[davidc]

Always nice to find some winners, Merlin.

Keep up the good work.

[merlin]

.... hi David, always nice to see you visit these portals, and particularly to

view and comment on the 3-0 MW system.Got off to a poor start, but

maybe this experience will be held in reserve for the commencement of

next season, when I will more than likely wait for a couple of weeks or so

to allow some form to come in.I think that is perhaps the reason for the

poor start this time round, so only further monitoring time will tell.

[merlin]

....due to the absolute mess the coupon was in last week I refrained
from quoting any selections from the 3-0 system.It was a mess from start
to finish with Internationals,North and South, and even Scottish matches
taking part on Sunday!Anyway here are this weeks selections highlighted
by the system:-

Roma (1.68)
Parma (A) (2.80)
Chelsea (1.20)
Newcastle U (1.73)
Manchester U (1.50)

Looking for some good results once again.

[merlin]

Been pretty busy lately so this seems to have been neglected.There were 4 winners and 1 loser this past weekend as per the M.Wray sheets,and I have brought these up to date as below:-

Total Staked 250.00
Total Returned 276.10
Yield + 10.44%
Winners 11
Losers 14
Total Bets 25
Strike rate 44%
Current Bank 126.10
Profit/Loss 26.10

After a poor start, things appear to have picked up, and as the season settles down,the results appear to be more in line with last season's experiment.Will try to keep abreast of this.

[merlin]

.... OK another day, another dollar.Just two selections highlighted this

week in the Brits as I have not been paying too much attention to

Spain,Italy and Germany, preferring to concentrate on those matches on

our own turf.Here are this week's along with best prices:-

Aston Villa 1.80

Preston N.E. 1.80

Looking for the continued improvement.

[merlin]

.... Another two winners nicely in the fold this weekend.My workings were

slightly askew last week, so they have now been rectified:-

Total staked 270.00
Total returned 312.10
Yield + 15.59%
Winners 16
Losers 11
Total Bets 27
Strike Rate 59.26%
Current Bank 142.10
Profit/Loss + 42.10

So after a poor early season start, this seems to be settling down very

well and seems to be confirming that last season was not a one off.

[merlin]

.... OK it looks like I'm talking to myself, but at least by putting these

selections down on Black and White, it's at least proofing them.

Just the two again this Saturday :-

Everton 1.83

Blackpool 1.91

Hoping for the continued improvement.

[mcgin]

Don't worry merlin your not tlking to yourself I was on Villa & Preston last weekend.

Oh and you can get better prices then the above on Betfair at the mo (1.92 & 2 respectivly which works out at 1.87 & 1.95 after commission)

[merlin]

.... cor, my sanity has just returned! Thanks McGin for breaking the code

of silence, great to get a visitor who drops by for some friendly comments.

Not many around to air opinions and views etc. Anyway glad to see you

were on those two last weekend.As regards prices I usually jusy glance

at the RFO as I am typing them out,and get the best price there for the

purpose of posting.Good to hear from you, hope your own system is

panning out! Call again soon!

[davidmphill]

Good luck this weekend Merlin.
Keep at it and hoping for some positive results for you.

[Kinglouey]

As McGin says your not alone,i also was on Villa and Preston and was very happy with the results.Decided to follow this to see where it goes and was curious as to how many selections on average this throws up on a weekend.Good luck with this

[merlin]

.... Many thanks to you other guys too, much appreciated. It is always

encouraging when I find someone who IS actually taking some notice in

a system put before them, which HAS actually got some potential and

without costing the earth to wager.I have also learned a lesson from the

Michael Wray sheets, and that is to completely ignore ALL selections for

two to three weeks at the start of the season.If I had done this, the

strike rate and yield etc would have been even better than they are at

this current moment in time, although I am pleased with the progress

shown over the past couple of weeks or so.Good to hear your comments

Gentlemen, do call again!

[davidmphill]

Always pop in Merlin but don't post all the time buddy.

[merlin]

... great to hear this David, but like tracking a Ghost, one never knows

whether it's there or not!

All you have to do is keep tabs on the views ro see how popular it is or not.

[merlin]

..... numbers of views mean absolutely very little to me my friend if I find I

am treading a lonely furrow! Six lone messages and the passage of one

month later is not exactly encouraging from any originator.I realise full well

that punters responses are not a god given right, and I would not expect

otherwise.Just an odd line here and there would always be appreciated,

but if this is not to be, then I would still plough the furrow.Thanks again.

[traf]

Keep up the good work, merlin!
It isn't unnoticed nor unappreciated.

I think most systems need several weeks to settle down. As a general rule I wait till October before following anything, but need a few small bets in the mean time to keep me occupied

[laying larry]

Hi merlin, IMHO I find that I can't get any descent rhythm in football until around 6 games have been played, mind you even then without help from here I pretty much useless at footie anyway.

Cheers LL

[merlin]

.... thanks again to all you guys who have replied. I was losing faith with

human nature, but you have all proved that my journey is not wasted by

any means and there are genuine punters out there who really make a

difference.My hat is off to you all!
