Anyone here interested in setting something up, I can try and think of a foremat. It would be an interesting exercise to see if between us we could
Thus far i have put one bet on and won in my life. When I used to go to sofaboxer, I got far more predictions right than wrong, think I was at about 75%- 85%, which would translate into a healthy profit I would have thought.
Anyone interested in putting something together?

No there are one of two ways of doing it.
Either we all bet based on a group vote, however we would need to find some way of administering it, so that only members of the sundicate voted. This would then generate the betting line which the syndicate would bet on. We all pay money into the pot which is betted on. This would be the easiest, though you don't want people forced to bet on something they disagree with, so they could veto to put their money in, but not bet on another line.
We set up a joint account which we can all pay into on a betting site, pay in a regular amount each week and recoup money according to how much they pay in. We could then work out the dividend at the end of the season.
I need to think about the best way of doing it, but it could be an interesting experiment. Could get complicated, so if anyone can think of a simple way of doing it I would be interested.
I just looked at my old stats from sofaboxer, it was actually 66% right, with a very high under/over rate. Of the time I picked the right winner (25) I picked the under/over/decision correctly 17 times, which against is about 66% or thereabouts.
