How are the tips picked?

Form, head-to-head, home and away records, and how the game is likely to be played. The short case sits under every tip. Nothing is asked on trust.

What does each tip actually back?

Exactly what the wording says — a winner, a goals line, both teams to score. Read the tip line first; it names the market before you open the case.

Is everything on the slip free?

Yes. Every tip and every write-up is open. Nothing sits behind a paywall.

How often is the slip updated?

Through the day. New fixtures and new calls land as they're settled, so the slip always matches the games coming up.

Can I back one tip with everything?

Don't. No call is certain. Spread stakes, keep them small, and favour the tips where form and the case agree.
