Key to Form Guide Text file contents......
   
Coupon Line No. The line number of the bookmaker's coupon and the two teams involved.
Only teams in English and Scottish leagues are analysed. The date of the Saturday included
in the bookie's weekend coupon is shown.... which is not necessarily the precise match date
( there may be some Sunday matches for example ).  

League Encounters. Previous UK league encounters between the two teams are listed.
Up to a maximum of ten matches may be shown. A search for matches is made back to, and
including, season 1990-91. There follows a summary of wins, draws and losses for each team.

Recent Form. The most recent form of each team is listed. Up to ten matches per team.
Latest results at the top of the list. Recent totals for wins, draws and losses are summarised.

League Table. An extract from league tables shows each team's position in their league
division and the totals for.....  matches played, wins, draws, losses, goals scored, goals lost
and league points. This is followed by further comparative league table statistics.

Rateform Points. Computer generated values which provide a useful guide to the relative abilities   
of each team but no claims are made concerning the accuracy of the accompanying predictions.
A description of the rateform method can be found here....   Mabel's Form Guide

Best Odds. The 'form guide' is completed by listing the best home, draw and away long-list odds
available when five major UK bookies' weekend coupons are compared. Both traditional UK
and decimal odds values are given.
