Betfair Price Files Download Manager

Does Bf publish/offer for download the football SP's anywhere?

There are no official BSPs for football but you can find Closing lines on the www.football-data.co.uk/data.php website

I admit to being somewhat confused. I've never looked for football SP's but had heard of them occasionally in passing but then today I found myself with a link to "https://betting.betfair.com/betfair-ann ... 14-51.html" ... a Betfair article about football SP's and probably because I am a long term user of BA I had not studied the Bf Match Odds screen so went to have a look at one and the first I did (Notts Forest v Chelsea 18/10/25) there it is ... I can back and lay all three outcomes at 'SP' and it gives me the current 'near' estimate! So you can bet on them.

But it still doesn't answer the question of where to get the historical BSP for football.

That was my question, you said they didn't exist!

Thanks Shaun but that service/those files have never worked for me ... life is too short to try and unravel thousands of folders!

Hi ,
I outlined earlier that the PF download manager only downloaded between 7 to 15 downloads for each month requested. I am supposing that this may not be a general issue for others but I resolved the issue by adding the following line of code to provide a delay before Loop in the VBA code. It now fully downloads a years downloads in about 6 minutes (or 365 secs)

Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01"))

While I am supposing the issue is peculiar to my PC/SYSTEM setup I am posting in case anybody else experienced this issue.
