Firstly, I hope the title of this post isn't taken as a genuine 'boom'. Anyone who knows me will know my feelings on such behaviour! lol.
As the main European leagues draw to a close for another
year I thought it was a good time to make a quick post reviewing the season and
the progression of the Goal List.
Since starting in October 2012, the list has featured over
600 selections and achieved consistent goal averages every month, the blog has
had over 70,000 visits, two honest and detailed reports totalling 62 pages have
been written investigating trends and profitable angles and we have now given
report buyers access to a the ‘Goal List Prep spreadsheet’ which uses poisson
calculation to allow for some nice additional pre game research.
I’m not aware of any other blog or website which has done so
much to help those who want to take their betting or trading to the next level
by giving them the tools to improve themselves rather than just drop selections
into their inbox (nothing wrong with this by the way if that’s the way you want
to go about things).
It has been a hell of a journey this season and I’m immensely
proud of the achievements so far. From the very start I have tried to do something different to the thousands of other's out there and i'm so glad that so many have recognised that and bought into the Goal List idea.
Just a few nice stats: the highest scoring Goal List match this season was the 7-3
between Arsenal and Newcastle on the 29th December. But along the
way we’ve seen two 5-4’s, five 5-3’s, a 6-2, a 6-3, a 7-1 and a 7-0… the list
goes on! This month alone we’ve had 11/45 selections (24%) go over 4.5 goals.
Of course those who have purchased the Goal List report will
know that profits can be made even in the matches that aren’t goal fests. And I
also know that many of those who chose not to buy the report(s) have nailed
down their own profitable approaches to the selections and that’s great too.
More power to you guys!

A bit of housekeeping, a few people have asked about the
average price for over 2.5 goals for Goal List selections. It is understandable
as anyone can see that goals are expected if the odds are 1.30 etc… So here is
a quick table showing the average odds for certain goal markets in Goal List matches
over the 600 game sample:
Goals

Average

Over 2.5

1.71

Over 3.5

2.77

Over 4.5

The reason for this post is really to explain what is going
to happen now the main European leagues have finished. The following ‘summer’ leagues already have selections in
the Goal List
- Sweden - Allsvenskan
- Sweden - Superettan
- Japan - J1 League
- Finland - Veikkausliiga
- Norway - Eliteserien
The intention is to
continue posting selections over the summer months in all of the above leagues.
The nature of the Goal
List selection process means we need to wait until a few games have been played
so selections will be posted starting Saturday 1st June.
Until then I’ll be having some much needed time off :-)
If you have any ideas for
improving the Goal List or would like to see anything added for next season I really would love to hear them. Please drop me an email at thegoallist@live.com
I reply to everyone.
