About Me

Who Is Best Betfair Football Trader?

My name is Steve, I’m from Manchester in the United Kingdom and I’ve been a professional trader for a while now.  I certainly don’t claim to be the best, I purely ended up with that website name because my original blog (thebetfairfootballtrader) was hosted on WordPress.com and I didn’t realise they didn’t accept gambling blogs, so I had to register a new domain, so here I am.

I had my first attempt at going full time in 2007 and it was nothing short of a disaster.  I had won quite a bit of money playing poker over the previous 18 months and had a good bankroll but I managed to thrown away my entire betting bankroll on the horses inside a fortnight.

Do you have your own trading service?

Not at the moment, but I do get a lot of requests along this line, so I may do at some point as I’d be happy to help people get up to speed with the world of Betfair trading.  My first trading system for football that I created turned out to be spookily similar to that the Football Trading System by Ian Erskine.

Do you follow any specific tipsters/systems?

Yes I do, but the majority of my tips are from my own research nowadays, but if you’re looking for a good start, the Betfair Trading Expert, Total Football Trading, Favourite Lays & Goal Profits.

How often do you update the blog?

Nowhere near as I used to do in the early days, but I’m doing my best to keep posting regular and useful content, whether that’s new service reviews, new statistics sites or just my general ramblings

Can anyone become a full time trader?

In short the answer is yes, but ALL traders have to have discipline and respect for their bankroll.  I suggest you sign up for my free newsletter to see the top 5 mistakes that Betfair traders make
