I’M heading to Bolivia for the main bets today as a back-on-form Strongest outfit take on a home side whose fate was probably already sealed long before their current form hit the skids… SAN JOSÉ VS. THE STRONGEST (10.15pm) San Jose play out of the Estadio Jesus Bermudez situated in the relatively low lying city of Oruro way south of the […]

MY main bets hail from the English Lower Leagues as Darlo take on a poorly Blyth side in a game already highlighted by Jamie Kennedy on his new acca page. I’m also including an all-Essex derby game featuring 2 sides hovering around the drop zone but (like Darlo) with plenty of games in hand! But first, a quick stop-off in […]

THERE’S quite a number of South American games that hold a certain level of appeal this evening but this one stands out for some potentially erroneous Paraguayan pricing from the bookmakers… SOL DE AMÉRICA VS. 12 DE OCTUBRE (9.15pm) Bookies have SDA odds on favourites here but I’m not convinced; they have won just 1 of their last 5 meetings […]

IT’S been a while since I’ve been able to post in full but currently quarantined so find myself with that rare gift of time on my hands coupled with the even rarer gift of South American football with a chance to play the card markets! CHILE VS PERU (11.00pm) Those that have followed South American domestic football down the years […]

THERE’S a small matter of a certain Champions League Qualifier that I just can’t let lie tomorrow… CELTIC VS. KR (7.45pm) I’ll potentially get pelters from a few but don’t underestimate KR tomorrow – sure they may not win but they will give a good account of themselves! No question as to the size difference between the sides but the quality […]

ICELANDIC sports have been back under Government lockdown for a few weeks but are now underway and that’s where I’m heading for the main bets with a cheeky betbuilder on City’s game thrown in for good measure! VALUR VS. KA (5.00pm) Valur are red hot favourites here and, whilst they ought to win, I’m not so sure it will be one-way […]
Posted on: 13 Aug 2020
THE BAIRRO OBRERO region of Paraguay’s capital City Asuncion plays host to a match featuring two sides with plenty of history between them this evening and I’m forecasting goals with some pretty solid value behind them! CERRO PORTEÑO VS. CLUB GUARANÍ It’s been a mixed start to the campaign from both sides but the standout stats are based around each […]

HUMIDITY, heavy rain, high winds and other adverse weather conditions can play a significant part in football betting and I usually check ahead of the more far-flung games as it is one of the many variables that overseas bettors should factor into making their selections. As it is, the central South American sub-tropical Asuncion climate reads 44% humidity…that’s 3% less than […]

JUST back from a lovely few days away in Berwick and Eyemouth – plenty of drinking, a bit of fishing but luckily no sign of the crabs that poor Craneguy is plagued by when he visits these remote coastal locations… My first instinct when looking at today’s card was to look into Afrika Reykjavik’s game, they are potentially one of the […]

MANY moons ago, there used to be a kebab shop in Bury called the Spice of Life. But, after a worryingly large number of post-Roxy revellers ended up shi*ting through the eye of a needle as a result of partaking in their food, it was affectionately known forever afterwards as The Spice of Death! I digress a bit but variety […]

CLOSE but no cigar last night in Orura but I’m keeping the faith in Bolivia and paying a visit to Cochabamba as old favourites Wilstermann head into the first home match of their Apertura campaign… JORGE WILSTERMANN VS. GUABIRÁ (9.15pm) Jorge hardly got off to a flyer as they went down 1-0 against a Nacional outfit who will most likely cause […]

HAPPY New Year to all the site members and here’s to a cracking 2020! I’m looking to start the ’20’s with a bang in the form of a team goals double hailing from high-flying sides in League Two and The National League North… YORK CITY VS. BRADFORD PA York were my lower league antepost pick last season but after a […]

STARE due Southeast across The Humber on a clear day and a keen eye will pick put the dark shadows of a once powerful but long-forgotten town. This is no ancient Aztec settlement though and the word civilisation could be stretching it – in fact, it’s true that nobody has ever met anyone from Grimsby – it’s almost as if […]

LOSING my football club has been a humbling experience and, I’m not too ashamed to say, an emotional one – Bury were a massive part of my life and between the age of 8 and 18, it’s fair to say they were my life. Of all my memories, there was nothing like the Bury/Bolton derbies in the 80s and 90s […]

BOLIVIAN football is back with a bang and I’m heading to capital city La Paz on the search for goals…it’s one of my favourite stomping grounds and if you can get your head around it’s quirks and penchant for red cards, it’s a cracking league to follow! BOLÍVAR VS. ALWAYS READY (8.00pm) Bolivar’s Estadio Hernando Siles stadium has been host […]
Posted on: 24 Nov 2019
CRACKING looking South American card and one bet stands out in Paraguay with potential for an additional btts acca hailing from the mean streets of Peru… OLIMPIA VS. CERRO PORTEÑO (8.00pm): My Paraguayan favourites Cerro have restored some form of late but it’s not the same team that lit up SA last year! This Acunsión derby will be tasty but my […]

TWO games that appeal this afternoon and I’ll be heading to the Peruvian top-flight for the Nap before heading back to the UK for the Nb… SPORTING CRISTAL VS. ALIANZA UNIVERSIDAD (4.00pm) Cristal can close the gap to Alianza Lima down to 1 point as the Peruvian giants look to home in on top-spot. The hosts have been on fire […]
Posted on: 31 Oct 2019
I’M taking a leaf out of resident corner guru Craig Alves’ book – he can sniff out a Brasilian quicker than a ferret down a trouserleg! SANTOS VS. BAHIA (10.15pm) Santos were THE in-form side and my go to team for goals earlier in the campaign but have since been overtaken and now sit 3rd but with this as a game […]

I ONCE heard someone describe the Northeast as a “brilliant night out for seedy adventures” but to be fair, the last time I heard from him, he’d been accosted by an angry mob in a cinema during a screening of Brokeback Mountain. Still, enough about poor old Craneguy – I’ve always preferred the evening footballing scene than the alternative night scene […]
Posted on: 28 Oct 2019
DEEPEST, darkest Peru for me this evening – it’s not the greatest of cards but this one may just offer up some value… UTC CAJAMARCA VS. AYACUCHO (8.30pm): UTC are favourites for this one and, based on H2H’s, I can see why bookies have given them an edge. But, look a little deeper at recent results and there’s a case to […]
Posted on: 26 Oct 2019
PLENTY to go at on this rain-lashed Saturday but I just can’t help being drawn back to the cold and lonely streets of Kent for this one from the National League South. MAIDSTONE UNITED vs BILLERICAY TOWN Maidstone are in a fine vein of form having won their last 4 matches and scoring 4-4-2-4 goals in the process but, the […]
Posted on: 22 Oct 2019
I’VE got the old white stilettos packed and ready for a night on the Essex tiles as the bright lights of nearby Southend come calling… BILLERICAY TOWN VS. SUTTON UNITED: FA Cup Qualification action here and ‘Ricay’s 9th placed standing in the National League South isn’t a million miles away from Sutton’s 20th placed National League placement! The hosts have […]
Posted on: 20 Oct 2019
TWO bets stand out for me today and I’ll be heading to Peru for a teatime team goals NAP but staying closer to home for the NB and Longshot from Old Trafford… SPORTING CRISTAL VS. PIRATA (5.15pm) There should only be one team walking the plank here and it ought to be a game that Cristal can nail – yes, […]
Posted on: 19 Oct 2019
TODAY sees a much more tempting card after a fairly spartan week and there’s a fair bit to go at – I’ve had a good look through and can’t help being drawn back to this Northern FA Cup qualifying game… GATESHEAD VS. COLNE (3.00pm) Growing up in North Manchester, we’d sometimes need a break from the soot, rain and guns […]
Posted on: 13 Oct 2019
THINGS have been a little on the crazy side with work the last few weeks and I haven’t the time to post as much as I used to but when I get the chance, I always will as a more detailed write-up helps to clarify my own thoughts! There are two games that catch my eye today and whilst the […]
Posted on: 05 Sep 2019
I’M leaving the bright lights of the internationals and sticking with the Northern Lights of Iceland’s 1 Deild! HAUKAR VS. NJARDVÍK (8.15pm) It’s sh*t or bust time for a few teams at the bottom of the 2nd tier and these two are right in the thick of it with just a handful.of games left to save their hides. Normally, games would […]

WELL DONE all on the Dundee derby last night – cracking game, alas my Nap double was a goal short Mr F so can’t claim a winner! Three games (more so specific teams) stand out for me on today’s card and the first two need little introduction as I’ve discussed my thoughts on both several times already this season… GLOUCESTER […]
Posted on: 29 Aug 2019
IT’S been a long week and with a ridiculous amount of work and my beloved Bury’s demise, I’ve had better times for sure -it’s not the world’s best post but it’s certainly a game that may pique the interest of any Night Owls out there… ATLÉTICO NACIONAL VS. DEPORTES TOLIMA (1200am): In brief, this one could come down to home […]
Posted on: 26 Aug 2019
LOOKING at this one for tomorrow and some confusion over whether it’s the fixtured league game or a cup replay – bookmakers and soccerway say the latter whilst the club’s Twitter feed say the former! I’d usually tend to trust the club’s info but it’s more likely that the cup replay would take precedence – either way there’s a damn […]
Posted on: 26 Aug 2019
THREE selections on this Bank Holiday card – the main bets hail from Iceland with a Longshot including 3 games from the ENL. Each of the games has a solid recent and historic picture for both sides scoring so fingers crossed it’s a day of goals! FH vs. Briedablik (7.00) Valur vs Stjarnan (8.15) Both teams to score double (1.29/1, […]
Posted on: 25 Aug 2019
La Paz is calling once again – it’s time to dig out the oxygen masks and climbing gear and take that long and winding road up through The Andes… THE STRONGEST VS. JORGE WILSTERMANN (8.00pm) Of all the South American sides, these two have a particular place in my heart and have featured in some of the most insane matches […]
Posted on: 20 Aug 2019
I’M STICKING close to home and looking for a goalscoring bullseye at The KCOM Stadium this evening as this War of The Roses clash sees trawlers and textiles come head to head… HULL CITY VS. BLACKBURN (7.45pm): I’ve been quietly impressed by City’s start to the campaign and the fans I’ve spoken to also share a sense of optimism about […]
Posted on: 16 Aug 2019
POSTED prices early morning for this one and, as predicted, the odds are tightening for home team goals – hopefully anyone interested was able to take advantage of the bigger prices as I knew I wouldn’t get this write-up done until now… THÓR VS. HAUKAR (7.00pm) All about the hosts here and it’s a fitting name for the Nordic side […]
Posted on: 15 Aug 2019
TWO games that catch my eye for goals this evening – one taken from The Icelandic Cup with the other hailing from The Costa Rican top-flight… VÍKINGUR REYKJAVÍK VS. BREIDABLIK (8.15pm) Plenty of action between these two over the years and, whilst Vikingur have home advantage, Briedablik have the best current form. 70% of the last 13 H2H’s have seen […]
Posted on: 13 Aug 2019
TONIGHT’S card is either an embarrassment of riches or, if it goes tits up, it’s the old adage of too much choice! Either way, there’s plenty to go at and I’ve picked out three bets; a rare and risky ‘unders’ bet from The Icelandic Ladies, a tasty looking encounter from The National League and a bonkers goals longshot from all […]
Posted on: 12 Aug 2019
THERE may be mileage in backing the hosts in this Icelandic encounter – all roads lead to Reykjavìk and, in tonight’s case, The Würth Völlurinn… FYLKIR VS. GRINDAVÍK (8.15pm): Two sides not in the best of shape but I think the hosts ought to be grabbing the points – their home form is actually pretty good despite their lowly league position. […]

HOW many times have we said that big cards aren’t always the best cards? Yes, there’s loads of choice but that doesn’t necessarily mean that you home in on the games and markets that you maybe would on a smaller set of fixtures! Sometimes, even with so much choice, you have to go with instinct and, despite being stung by […]

SHOCKER yesterday in Iceland and everything looked primed ready for a decent outcome until Tindastol decided to play up away from home for the first time in a long time – funny old game football…well, about as funny as piles. Frustrating as hell but need to move on! LIVERPOOL VS. NORWICH (8.00pm): The English Premier League is back with a […]
Posted on: 08 Aug 2019
I’VE always believed that betting should be about looking for any edge over the bookies and not just about taking on the more obvious games and leagues – yes, there’s plenty to be said for it, but very often, the real value lies in those harder to reach places where there is less collective knowledge generating the prices! There’s never […]
Posted on: 06 Aug 2019
IT’S great to have the English Lower Leagues back in action and three sides who I think will have strong campaigns feature in this evenings selections with the main event coming from Mill Farm… AFC FYLDE VS. CHORLEY I included Fylde in my Antepost bets and, having come close two years running, it could be third time lucky – they […]

Posted on: 02 Aug 2019
IT’S a rare occasion that I’d dive down into the depths of the Bolivian domestic leagues but this game, hailing from Section C of The Nacional B, whets the appetite for goals potential – especially for those with a sweet tooth… INDEPENDIENTE PETROLERO VS. REAL TOMAYAPO (8.30pm) Sucre based Independiente Petrolero may not command the gravitas and standing of their […]

THERE’S only one pain that comes close to that felt when losing a loved one and it’s a pain felt by many men with young kids. Having to sit through a soft-play party with a hangover is potentially one of the most harrowing ordeals that modern man may have to face and it’s not a fate I’d wish on my […]

EVERYTHING went to plan in Brasil for yesterday’s main bets and I’ll be jetting 900 miles due west and touching down in the Paraguayan capital of Asuncion for another shot of South American goal action… SOL DE AMÉRICA VS. LIBERTAD (10.00pm) SDA’s games have long been one of the star attractions (for me at least) of following The Paraguayan ‘Division […]
Posted on: 28 Jul 2019
SOUTH America was kind to me yesterday with both the Nap and Longshot landing – hopefully, there’s more to come this evening as I take on a Brazilian that ought to be anything but a close shave! SANTOS VS. AVAÍ (8.00pm) Santos know a win here will see them leaprog Palmeiras into pole position in Brasil’s Serie A – what […]
Posted on: 27 Jul 2019
SATURDAY looks like an all-South American affair for me with the main bets hailing from Asuncion and a back-up goals long shot featuring games in Bolivia, Chile, Venezuela and, of course, Paraguay! OLIMPIA VS RIVER PLATE (11.00pm) All about the hosts at home here – aside from a couple of Copa Libertadores defeats, they are unbeaten at home in 25 consecutive […]
Posted on: 25 Jul 2019
TWO games that catch my eye today; the Nap, Nb and Longshot are all taken by siding with goals in Bolivia whilst a tea-time dabble with the Finnish Ladies league may bring an added bonus… ALWAYS READY VS. ORIENTE PETROLERO (8.00pm) Straightforward and simple – I wish – but I’m going for goals here and there’s plenty to indicate a […]
Posted on: 24 Jul 2019
AFTER a total crock yesterday, I’m looking to get back on track with a Scandinavian and Nordic goals hunt – first off, I’ll be heading to the goal-haven that is the Finnish Kolmonen for a tea-time tip… I-KISSAT VS. ACE (1800KO): This could be many things for the travelling side but ace most likely be one of the words used to […]
Posted on: 22 Jul 2019
ALL roads lead to Iceland for me this evening and although my initial thoughts were to go for Briedablik goals, the more I look, the less I like it! In fact, current form and more historic meetings point to underwhelming totals for both goals and corners and have led to me putting together a rare unders bet-builder for the NB. […]
Posted on: 19 Jul 2019
PUTTING all of your betting eggs in one basket isn’t always the best way to go but that’s the direction I’m taking this evening as I head to the Paraguyan capital city Asuncion for a potential derby cracker… NACIONAL VS. OLIMPIA (11.00pm KO) It’s the away team whom I’m siding with and although the temptation to go with both teams […]
Posted on: 16 Jul 2019
TUESDAY sees a pretty lively card in the Icelandic 1 Deild and I’m doubling up two of the earlier kicks-offs to form today’s picks… KEFLAVÍK VS. MAGNI (7.00pm) THÓR VS. NJARDVÍK (7.00pm) Both host sides are clear favourites to win and with good reason; their opposition’s away record in particular is pretty grim with Thor conceding 6 across the last […]
Posted on: 14 Jul 2019
YESTERDAY’S Bolivian bets are on ice until Monday and did put up a couple of late btts picks but they were a total write off! Sunday is an interesting card with most of the key SA leagues clocking back on and a smattering of half-decent Nordic games thrown in for good measure. I’ve looked through the lot and settled on […]
Posted on: 13 Jul 2019
IT’S been a great week and looking to make it 4 successful NAP and NBs on the bounce with a a helping hand from the return of The Bolivian Primera! ALWAYS READY VS. SPORT BOYS (8.00pm) Destination Estadio Municipal El Alto for me this evening as the Bolivian Clauara kicks into gear – there is massive favouritism for the hosts […]
Posted on: 11 Jul 2019
SOMETIMES there are easier bets to take on but real (potential) value usually comes from taking a calculated risk and that’s my steer for tonight’s selections – hopefully fortune favours the brave… FJÖLNIR VS. KEFLAVÍK (8.15pm) Prices are as short as 4/11 for Fjolnir here and whilst I understand how those prices have been generated on recent standings and form, […]
Posted on: 09 Jul 2019
IT’S that time of year when thoughts turn to ante post selections and two bets stand out for me with a common theme emerging – The Mighty Shakers potential (and highly likely) freefall! With gaffer Ryan Lowe gone and talismanic playmaker Danny Mayor joining him at Argyle, the future looks bleak for Bury amongst our ongoing financial shenanigans – although […]
Posted on: 06 Jul 2019
THIS one may just see home side ÍBV contract a serious case of IBS as they come face to face with The Urvalsdeield’s top side in KR Reykjavik! ÍBV VS. KR (5.00pm) KR were my pre-season fancies after a really strong showing towards the end of the last campaign and have justified that confidence with a sh*t-hot start; 26 points […]

FUNNY thing this weather on these islands of ours – I left Costa Del Hull around 18.00 Friday in scorching sunshine only to arrive 40 miles up the coast at beautiful Filey surrounded by grey clouds and a piss-cold North Sea fret. Still, it’s good to get a wee break even if it means sharing a tin prefab with two […]

HullShaker goes back to Iceland in search of goals
Posted on: 16 Jun 2019
I’TS been a great run of form with the NAPs this last three weeks and my thoughts are turning to South America to see if I can extend the run further this evening. PARAGUAY vs QATAR (8pm) Copa America action here as these two go head to head in their Group B opener – the natural perception would be for […]
Posted on: 14 Jun 2019
No time for a full write-up but I’m swerving the (currently) inconsistent Icelandic Urvalsdeild in favour of a late Brasilian… JUVENTUDE VS. VOLTA REDONDA (2300KO): Juventude are favourites here but I suspect the visitors will make their mark at some point in this Serie C clash. Having dropped from B to C last season, the hosts will be a tough test […]
Posted on: 13 Jun 2019
I’M leaving the torrential monsoons of Humberside for the relatively balmy conditions in Reykjavik where it’s sunny and a few degrees warmer than it is here… FJÖLNIR VS. VÍKINGUR ÓLAFSVÍK It’s not too bad a card in this evening’s 2nd tier but one game looks to have the edge for goals as two of the Urvalsdeild’s old foes come head […]
Posted on: 12 Jun 2019
IT’S Ladies Night for me this evening and although I daren’t tell Mrs Hull, my eye has been caught by not only the dusky Parisien beauties of France’s World Cup team but also those dirty-kneed NILFs. LURGAN TOWN LADIES vs CREWE UNITED LADIES (7.30pm) It looks to be pretty much pissing it down on the southern banks of Lough Neagh so […]
Posted on: 10 Jun 2019
I’M heading to Iceland’s 2 Dield in search of goals and reckon this one has a great chance at a fair price. SELFOSS vs KFG (8.15pm) This one should be dictated by each team’s respective home and away form – my thoughts siding with a healthy win for Selfoss although any goals will be gratefully received! The hosts have hit 5-3-1 […]
Posted on: 04 Jun 2019
NORDIC action all the way for me today and I’ve picked out a game from Finland and one from Iceland that both stand a great chance of goals! GG vs FENRIR (9pm) Destination south-west Iceland for this one and I’m putting my money on the hosts handing out a humping to new kids on the block Fenrir. The visiting side […]

IT is a widely known fact Bury is the precise centre of the universe – not just in interplanetary terms but also in football parlance.

CERRO PORTEÑO VS. OLIMPIA (10.00pm): Olimpia sit top after 15 games and have a 4 point lead on Cerro who have played one more game and […]

I’VE never been great at remembering important dates. I know my kids birthdays and vaguely know which month Mrs Hull celebrates her annual moon-howling session but beyond that, I’m pretty useless. There are exceptions though and Friday 26th April marks a very special day in the HullShaker household; a time of year for great celebration and teary-eyed reminiscing.. that’s right […]

PRICES still good for Cerro given all that has happened in recent months but there is most certainly a caveat or three. Cerro play in the Copa Libertadores in nine days and will be keen to keep up their extraordinary 100 per cent record. Even more pressingly they take on the mighty Olimpia Asuncion in four days and that is […]

CURZON ASHTON vs MOSSLEY (7.45pm) It’s Cup Final day […]

SUNDAY sees a pretty impressive looking card but it has been said on the site so many times before, less is often more and, yes, a bigger card means more opportunities but it also offers up more traps to avoid! Hopefully, I can avoid the bogeys and home in on a few birdies with selections from the EPL and South […]

GREAT stuff in Peru with Binacional running out 5-0 winners but there’s trouble brewing closer to home. Bury vs Colchester I’ve not the time to get fully into the politics now but there’s a cloud hanging over Gigg that is much more complex than the usual cold cover that blows down off the Pennines. This isn’t just a blot on […]

TWO matches that interest me this evening – one international featuring the Three Lions and the other hailing from Peru’s Primera Division. Montenegro v England (7.45pm) There seems to be a train of thought Montenegro are a bit of a joke side and some small province cast away in relative seclusion but, while the footballing standard may be questionable, don’t […]
Posted on: 23 Mar 2019
IT’S a great looking UK card and I’ve carved out three games where I reckon the home side stand a fantastic chance of scoring at least a brace of goals… CHORLEY VS. LEAMINGTON NLN table-toppers Chorley have hit a minimum of 2 goals in 8 of their last 9 home matches and ought to nail this one against an ailing […]
Posted on: 20 Mar 2019
THREE games I like the look of today and will list a brief run-down rather than a detailed write-up as time is really limited for me at the moment – folk can make their minds up from there but all are confident picks. OLIMPIA v DEPORTIVO SANTANÍ (11.15pm): Love the look of this one and although there are no guarantees in […]
Posted on: 18 Mar 2019
IT’S been a great weekend and I’m setting my sights on this one from the Paraguayan top flight to extend that run of form! CERRO PORTEÑO v SOL DE AMÉRICA (10.15pm) Cerro looked great in the early stages of the Apertura and they’ve gone on to justify my early optimism with a crackling start to campaign which sees them sitting […]
Posted on: 15 Mar 2019
ALL roads lead to Chile this evening and it’s destination Santiago – The Estadio Santa Laura-Universidad SEK to be precise – where I fancy hosts Espanola to grab a couple of goals at a tasty looking price. UNIÓN ESPAÑOLA VS. HUACHIPATO (11.00pm) Both sides have had a decent start but after 4 games, it’s Espanola who look the more solid […]
Posted on: 12 Mar 2019
ICELANDIC League Cup action for me this evening and with plenty to play for, I reckon this one looks a gem of an early price and would expect it to go off at evens or less VALUR VS. AFTURELDING (6.00pm): Initial thoughts are always going to be centred around a very strong Valur outfit and I’ve been a massive fan myself […]
Posted on: 12 Mar 2019
THIS evening’s card has got the lot; European, South American, Nordic and plenty of upper and lower domestic league action to boot! I’ve looked at pretty much everything but have settled on a humble cup tie much closer to home for the main selection and will roll up a combination of the above for a crack at a team goals […]

GOALS may well be the route to success for this evening’s picks and I’m taking on two Icelandic Cup games featuring 1 Deild sides playing host to top-flight opposition. HAUKAR v BREIDABLIK (6pm) Haukar’s 2019 cup exploits have been pretty rank thus far and, with 3 consecutive losses, I can’t see them having too much luck against tonight’s visitors! Breidablik […]
