The Winabobatoo service will end on 31st May 2025.
The last 19 years have provided me with an unbelievable experience, being able to work with dedicated, smart bettors, to help give everyone a genuine edge over the bookmakers.
The death of my wife, Carol, in September 2024, aged 65, has been the primary reason why I have made the decision to close the service. We worked together as a team to produce the twice weekly magazines, we checked results together. We shared the emotions of the ‘betting ups and downs’ together. Life, betting and Winabobatoo are not the same without her.
I reached my 66th birthday last December. I was 47 when Winabobatoo started. I feel I need to move on and try to create new hobbies and interests that will stand me in good stead for the rest of my life. Running a service like Winabobatoo demands 100 per cent effort and commitment – this is what is needed to stay ahead of the bookies. I don’t want to be tied to my desk throughout the summer, doing research and guide writing for the 2025-26 season, as I have been for the last 19 years.
The last six months of Carol’s life were very traumatic as her cancer made life more limiting by the day. For much of that time, I was sat at my desk preparing for the 2024-25 season. Doing so during the summer of 2025 would take me back to those very dark times. For my own well-being, I need to have a different routine this year.
Closing the service has been a very, very hard decision because throughout my life I have always attempted to never let people down. I feel I am letting my loyal supporters down, which means I am doing this with a very heavy heart.
If you’d asked me three years ago whether I could see life without Winabobatoo, I would have said no. But at that time, I also couldn’t see life without Carol. Carol was diagnosed with terminal cancer three years before she died in September 2024.
During those three years, we tried to keep life as ‘normal’ as we could. During the last 12 months, it wasn’t possible, but we battled on. We envisaged being together well into our late seventies but sadly, that wasn’t to be.
The website will close down shortly. Please download my free interactive betting spreadsheets whilst they are still available. They will help you understanding odds, risk and bankrolls in a way words alone can never do.
Thank you to everyone who has been on this journey with me for the last 19 years. It’s been an immense pleasure and I will be eternally grateful to everyone for their loyal support.
Good luck and best wishes for the future.
