Last night saw a hugely frustrating night in which I buckled and looked for the stats and form instead of my underdog AH line. ALL games, apart from Villa-Sunderland had a handicap of +0.5 as a MINIMUM. Even Maritimo losing by a goal to Benfica would have covered +1.5. Absolutely gutting stuff.

Cottbus v Kaiserslautern, 7.15pm Kaiserslautern, 1.800 Sedan v Monaco, 7.30pm Over 2.5 goals, 1.870 Aston Villa v Sunderland, 8.00pm BTTS, 1.800 Double Benfica/St Patrick's, 1.909

It has a 224 point 52 week increase which is exceptional and today shows that it may just be getting back on track with investor confidence for another splurge towards the 500 mark. I personally took the money and ran at the end of February, but it's nevertheless a stock which is close to my heart and I hope it all the best for the future. Here are some raw figure -
