Perl for Football Tipping Update
A while ago I posted a perl script for football tipping. Well, I’ve now updated the script in question, and offer it for download here. The script will now also parse the winning margins on the tips page to produce an average margin, and also downloads and parses the AFL home page to get this weeks fixture. Once it has the fixture, it will now combine the experts tips, and the fixture to tell you who you should tip and why. Dead simple tipping for non-experts!
After the first three rounds of he season I’m now 1 point off the lead in our cpompetition, and I used the script to tip every round.
