You are of course right, Gem. Ficina, please do not feel excluded from the discussion. The reason I get into a muddle is because of the time zone - and while the betting office quote the games in CET, Sportspress quotes them in GMT.

I remember calculating the chart in both versions In the correct chart Mercury in his own terms in the 7th sextiles the MC. While the antiscia of POF/POS falls close to the MC.

I will try and be more careful in the future!

I haven't come to any conclusion as regards to conjunctions. Do you find them to work?

Well, Moon conj antiscion Jupiter certainly worked for those three games last Sunday I disagree with JF that the Moon's last aspect necessarily indicates a win. It's a great testimony to support the faves, but not the underdogs when it merely indicates that they will score. This can be helpful in predicting exact scorelines, for example Fulham/Chelsea on 1st Jan.

Well, Derby loosing by default - that made sense!

Arsenal 1 - B'ham 1

Now that warms my heart in one sense. But another part of me says that Arsenal are falling apart. ManC didn't make it either - but I'm not blaming astrology for the 1500 GMT charts.
----------------------------------------
Well, I'm please I threw ?10 in the last minute on West Brom beating Hull. The game ended 1-3 to WestBrom at the price of 2,4:1.
I also build up a combination of Porto and Sevilla winning their game this evening at a collected price of 3,45:1. Saturn on the asc of these games is mr Mercury, L10. But Sevilla wins away since POS casts its antiscia to the cusp of the 7th.

Porto won at home 4-0, but Sevilla playing away lost 0-2 to Ath.Bilbao. Now Sevilla are through in the Champions League and with antiscia POF/POS to the cusp of the 7th (orb 1'47) this should have been a piece of cake, or not?

My testimonies for the home team to win were Saturn on the ascendant in MR with Mercury, L10. Antiscia POF/POS did not deliver. Tell me what is right and what is wrong. Isn't this really too artful?
----------------------------------------------------------

Not throwing the towl in entirely, I think Sunderland should beat Portsmouth seeing that Mercury, L1, in his own terms, is conjunct the MC.
Secondly, Bolton should be beaten by Blackburn. The Moon, L1, is in the 10th but the Sun in his own face is on the cusp of the 7th and trine POF.

Tell me what is right and what is wrong. Isn't this really too artful?

Andrew, could you post the data for these two games please?

Here are the charts:

As a part of a research team (us), I really want to get down to the evidence and find out what ever is certain. I really want to avoid deluding myself with a system that only works half the time. Maybe the mistake can be shown to be mine. I am still assuming our progress.

Putting my neck on the block.

Sunderland to win.

Score 1 nil, goal second half.

Is the next English game which is not occuring at the same time as other games the West Ham/Man City cup replay this Wednesday?

Thank you, John. I put my neck on the block, too.
It's always nice to have company!
Welcome to the research team

Andrew, were the home teams the favourites and were they odds on? Thanks.

John, yes, Man City v West Ham 8.05pm and it's on the telly

John

Sunderland to win. Score 1 nil, goal second half.

Could you share the astrological reasoning behind your judgement with us?

Andrew

Now that warms my heart in one sense.

Aresenal have begun to drop points and my heart was warmed too.

Ficina

Moon conj antiscion Jupiter certainly worked for those three games last Sunday

What about planets?(bodily conjunction).

There's also a FA CUp replay between Reading and Spurs on Tue at 20:00, which has got a very interesting chart.

Ficinia asked:
Andrew, were the home teams the favourites and were they odds on? Thanks.

Odds were about even, Ficinia. I try to keep a record of the odds all ways at the time I enter the bet. I have no record from yesterdays, so I slipped up on that one. I did not see reason to give Sevilla the asc. The price on Sevilla was 2,45:1. So it would be difficult to argue that they were the favourites in the same way that Arsenal or United would be priced at 1,2:1.
