Was just about to post that graph, I noticed it as well yesterday evening. Seen some crazy graphs as a football trader but probably nothing quite like that. I guess that's what happens when the entire first team gets suspended : http://soccer.nbcsports.com/2018/04/06/ ... president/

I'm copypasting this just FYI:

"The board has finished its meeting with Sporting's captains and team. Overall:

Players did not refuse to train
Coentrão has not been returned to Madrid (fake news)
No player is suspended/fined
Team is focused in the cup semi final, Europa League 2nd leg and the rest of the championship
Board will go on Blackout until the end of the season"

When Peter said it was drifting I did the foolish thing and jumped on without confirming the news. Really glad I checked it at about 4am and got out with little damage done.

Soft pen in the extra time. Juve didn't deserve that.

A-League, Western Sydney v Adelaide, 80min: Adelaide takes a 2-3 lead, Betfair suspends market and reopens it 7min after the goal. Bet365 had the market reopened 5secs after the goal went it.

Dear Betfair, if you're reading this, is it so bloody difficult to use the same data feed that Bet365 uses (provided by a company called RBall) and AUTOMATE the suspending and unsuspending of markets? No need to have a human operator doing this, ffs.

Pissed off.

I know the feeling quite well but it comes with the territory I'm afraid, it's something you have to accept if you're trading the so called "lesser" football leagues.

True.

It just pisses me off that companies always find ways of making more money by COMPLICATING (e.g. premium charge) rather than by SIMPLIFYING (e.g. automating market suspensions which will in turn lead to cost cutting due to the removal of inefficient humans).
