Way to much... They want to be sure system is not crushing again... bye bye value! What is the point releasing them...
When you consider the English lad who crushed the platform, Tanganga was offered at 90p onwards, although because of the crush, many got him at 85p; today's IPOs are of no interest.
Interesting to see some German players rise but not others, Goretska and muller rising but klosterman and kroos not
Just bought Muller. He's the only one I could afford at the moment. German players are getting as close to being as expensive as English players. This will be more true if FI takes off in Bavaria eventually.
The key will be a good PB - 140+ will be the point where people realise he can be a threat & unlist en-masse.
You might be right. He was 29p in the green for me today and falling and I was ready to take the profits before any further falls. But he's grown back up.
Gambling in no way will be banned in the UK. Remember, the so-called sport of kings - horse racing, is underpinned by betting.
@Kr10 said in January transfer moves thread:
Anyone been paid out for Lazaro to Newcastle yet?
I think I have. Still waiting for confirmation from CS. See this thread for details: https://forums.footballindex.co.uk/topic/14988/credit-bonus
@Ellisandro I accidentally stumbled onto the BBC's Death in Paradise series, and was surprised to see you in the main role. You didn't mention you was starring in it, LOL.
Thanks guys. I think you are right. I've done a webchat with CS and they'll get back to me by email. I didn't realise one of my transfer holds, Valentino Lazaro has been confirmed on the BBC Transfer site. I'm keeping him, though. I want to see if he hits the ground running. He could rise. He's only dropped to 1p in the red for me. Maybe other holders are waiting as well.
Yesterday morning I received a credit bonus of £5.50. With so many promotions on the go, I'm getting confused as to what it's for. Has anyone else received this? I'll call CS if no one has got it.
@NewUser731 said in Gambling receiving bad media attention.:
Is anyone concerned by the wave of negative publicity the gambling industry at the moment?
From FOBT machines to advertising in football gambling seems to be taking a bit of a pasting.
While I obviously appreciate FI is nothing like FOBT machines and is different to all other betting companies you presume any legislation will tarnish all betting companies with the same brush.
One thing that FI needs to grow is exposure so any potential ban on advertising (Nottingham forest shirt sponsor for example) isn't ideal.
Having listened to the fig's podcast the idea of peer to peer advertising and therefore more targeted referral incentives could become more and more relevant.
Anybody else had any thoughts on this at all?
When I see gambling panned on the news and MPs saying football relies too much on gambling money, it's a worry. If you're going to gamble, FI is the most responsible in that your bet is up to 3 years. You have a great chance of getting your money back.
@Advinculas-Index said in In the middle of TWO promotions, yet...:
If you compare the amount of sign ups on the forum in the last 30 days (26 pages)
versus 12 months ago (97 pages) it would indicate that a lot more users joined last JanuaryThis would certainly be in line with my own recollections from last January when the forum was inundated by new users having issues with verifying their accounts and asking new user type questions.
Im sure there were a number of users on here who felt like they should have been on FI's payroll at the time given the amount of assistance they were having to provide to the new join ups during this period as FI Customer Service seemed to retreat into their shell.
I dread to think how many customers they lost last January due to their inability to handle the unprecedented influx in Jan 19.
Maybe this is why they decided not to run with the try Jan promo this year.
I remember those days. It felt like the Off Topic and Comments & Feedback sections of the forum was my personal inbox!
