So who are the soccer cappers to watch here? Anybody really good? I'm trying to learn about this sport. Thanks :howdy:

Of the current posters The Guru seems quite good although i don't have any figures.

Previously a mystery tipster known only as "Mr.Sharp" supplied picks through the poster MadCapper. After an extended period Mr.Sharp had close to a 70% winning record.

However since then MadCapper has left the forum, apparently due to personal financial reasons, and we no longer receive "Mr. Sharp's" picks although he had started to tail off slightly from his 70% record.

jackdee/babadragon used to be very good; whatever happened to that guy? :icon_conf

Pro- There are some sharp posters in the soccer forum. I feel that chriscol is an excellent handicapper. Whatever I give out, just go the other way. I couldn't pick a winner if you gave me the final score. If I bet a horse in a one horse race, the jockey would pull him up just short of the finish line.

That being said, I love a soccer game tomorrow. I'll have a write up later on and then you can fade the pick. I really like the game and think it will be a hammer job.

Pro Ref:

We have some good cappers here in chriscol and don't let soccerbob fool you into thinking he's not top-notch. The Guru is good as was mentioned before. It seems to me that each of us goes in streaks. We have a good streak one week or even two weeks and then the next week we have a losing week.

Overall I would say all those listed are up for the season.

yes, you are right quantum. i think the above mentioned list reflects the good cappers in here.

one general advise Pro Ref's: Soccer or football as we call it is a very local game if you go to minor leagues (2nd divisions or similar). a lot of local knowledge is required for that.
the big leagues can be capped by widely available statistics. if you have agreed plays from the above mentioned cappers in those leagues then you have usually find great value.
