How ForeScore Grades Every Tip

It is easy for anyone to claim they are good at predicting football. It is much harder to prove it honestly, in the open, over time. That gap is the whole reason this page exists. Rather than ask you to take our word for anything, we grade every tip we publish in public, using a fixed and transparent method - so the record you see reflects what actually happened, wins and losses alike.

The first principle is the simplest and the most important: nothing disappears. Every prediction we publish is recorded and then settled once the match finishes, marked clearly as a win, a loss, or a void. Losing tips are not quietly deleted, and winning tips are not cherry-picked after the fact to flatter the numbers. A record is only meaningful if it includes the bets that went wrong, so ours does - visibly, permanently, and open to inspection in the archive.

To measure performance fairly, we treat every tip as a flat one-unit stake - the same notional amount on each, regardless of how confident the selection felt. This matters because it removes any temptation to quietly weight the record toward the winners. A win returns the odds minus that one unit of stake; a loss costs the single unit; a void counts as zero and is set aside. Crucially, we use the odds that were genuinely available at the moment the tip was published, not a better price found afterwards. The result is measured in units, so anyone can judge the performance on its own terms.

A few figures do the heavy lifting, and each has a plain meaning. The hit rate is simply the share of settled tips that won. Units is the running profit or loss in those flat one-unit terms - up ten units means ten standard stakes ahead. Return on investment, or ROI, expresses that profit as a percentage of everything staked, which is the truest single measure of whether the approach is actually paying. Because they are all built from the same honest, unedited record, the numbers rise and fall with reality rather than with our mood.

This all takes discipline and it occasionally makes for uncomfortable reading - a bad run is there for everyone to see. That is precisely the point. A prediction service that only shows its winners is not showing you a record at all; it is showing you an advert. By committing to grade everything, in the open, at the prices we actually called, we are holding ourselves to the one standard that means anything in this field: honesty measured over time. You do not have to trust us - you can simply check the archive.
