I'm a sports journalist, football tipster and author from Dundee, who is now working in Glasgow. I've covered games at every level, from Junior football to internationals, and still love football even though it has clearly sold its soul. I've been in football tipping since 2018 with the MFT site.

Liverpool should have too much firepower in a Premier League clash with Bournemouth that promises goals but the stats from week one suggest the Cherries could be worth a punt in the corner handicap
Posted on: 16 Aug 2023
With St Mirren and Motherwell both in excellent form it could pay to back the half-time stalemate and a tight match when they face off in the Scottish League Cup last 16

We should see goals as Hearts bid to bounce back against Rosenborg in the UEFA Europa Conference League and Lawrence Shankland looks overpriced at 7/5 to hit the net
Posted on: 15 Aug 2023
RANGERS remain a work in progress after their big summer rebuild but the bookies are backing their Champions League adventure to continue. After beating Servette 2-1 at Ibrox last week, McBookie make Gers 1/5 hot favourites to reach the play-off round, with the Swiss at 10/3. A draw would take them through and that could be the most likely outcome […]

PATIENCE may be a virtue but it’s in short supply when you play for Celtic or Rangers. Like a family heading out on the long drive south to Alton Towers, talking about the wonders on offer at the end of the journey will only appease the kids for 30 minutes at best. Long before the rusty old jalopy gets to […]

We haven’t seen a single goal in the last four meetings of Chelsea and Liverpool but that should change in this Premier League opener and Mo Salah looks overpriced at 2/1 to get off to a flier
Posted on: 09 Aug 2023
Everton still look short of firepower and we should see many more cards than goals when they host Fulham in their Premier League opener
Posted on: 08 Aug 2023
Rosenborg are starting to string some wins together so look good value at odds-against to beat Heart of Midlothian at home in the first leg of what should be a Europa Conference League thriller
Posted on: 05 Aug 2023
THE start of a new top-flight campaign used to offer gaffers a clean slate with the board and fans – for 90 minutes at least. But all that has changed with early European qualifiers and the League Cup group stage placing plenty of managers under pressure before a ball has been kicked in the league. We even had a Fir […]

THE SPFL roars back into life on Friday as the Championship gets underway with Dundee United making the short trek up the coast to Arbroath. The bookies reckon two divisions will separate these sides next season, with United favourites to go up and Arbroath right at the bottom of the betting at 33/1 with McBookie. But Dick Campbell’s part-timers have […]

Erling Haaland scored twice against Arsenal last term so looks good value at close to evens for a goal as Manchester City lock horns with the Gunners again in the FA Community Shield at Wembley
Posted on: 01 Aug 2023
Dundee United have won three in a row without conceding after a horror start in the Scottish League Cup so look good value at odds-against for a victory at Arbroath in their Championship opener
Posted on: 23 Jul 2023
We’ve seen goals at both ends in all of Falkirk’s League Cup matches so try BTTS and over 2.5 strikes as they face improving Dundee United
Posted on: 20 Jul 2023
We only saw one goal when St Mirren and Arbroath last faced off in the Scottish League Cup, with both sides’ form in the new campaign suggesting another tight game
Posted on: 17 Jul 2023
Dundee have been flying in pre-season, winning all five friendlies, so it could pay to back them for a win to nil against League Two Bonnyrigg Rose in their League Cup opener
Posted on: 13 Jul 2023
Dundee United still haven’t replaced Steven Fletcher up front so it could pay to bet against a lot of goals when they face SPFL new boys The Spartans in their League Cup opener
Posted on: 24 Jun 2023
IT’S hard to get excited about the CONCACAF Gold Cup, even when it’s filling a gaping void in the football calendar. Mention the federation to most football fans and it’s disturbing images of Chuck Blazer and Jack Warner rolling around naked in piles of used dollar bills that immediately spring to mind. With most of the Gold Cup games kicking […]

SCOTLAND can plant one foot in Germany if they continue their perfect start to Euro 2024 qualifying with a Hampden win over Georgia tonight. The stunning weekend comeback in Norway was massive but Steve Clarke will be desperate to back it up with another victory. The Georgians now look the biggest threat to the Scots after following up their opening […]

Austria’s clash with Sweden could be pivotal in deciding who reaches Euro 2024 so expect plenty of cards and action at both ends
Posted on: 17 Jun 2023
The Republic of Ireland are low on confidence so under 3.5 goals looks good as they host a Gibraltar side who have lost just 3-0 to France, Greece and the Netherlands so far in Euro 2024 qualifying
Posted on: 17 Jun 2023
THE Nations League wasn’t met with much enthusiasm when it was introduced five years a go with most fans seeing it as another way for UEFA to squeeze more money out of the game. But it has actually turned out to be a pleasant surprise, a bit like being railroaded into buying tickets for Ed Sheeran by your significant other […]
Posted on: 16 Jun 2023
ENGLAND have hardly put a foot wrong in qualifiers since Gareth Southgate took charge and should ease to victory in Malta tonight. Wins over Italy and Ukraine have put the Three Lions in control of Group C and McBookie make them 1/33 hot favourites to beat the Maltese. It’s hard to find value and you need to go to England […]

Croatia and Spain both impressed in their Nations League semis so expect a close final in Rotterdam, with the half-time draw looking like the best option
Posted on: 14 Jun 2023
It’s easy to forget there’s a trophy up for grabs in the Nations League as most countries view it as a backdoor entry to major tournaments. The competition has been good to Scotland, offering us a route to Euro 2020 and providing a backup for Germany 2024 if a promising start to qualifying peters out. But victories will be hard […]

Norway need to go for the win against Scotland in Euro 2024 qualifying and Ryan Porteous looks good for a card up against Erling Haaland
