🏆⚽ WORLD CUP GOAL PREDICTION COMPETITION UPDATE ⚽🏆

The goals are flying in! 🚀

After 25 matches of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, we’ve already seen a whopping 75 goals scored! 🤯

That’s an average of 3 goals per game, which currently puts 312–313 goals right in the sweet spot for our competition predictions. 👀

But don’t start celebrating just yet! 🍾

Historically, scoring rates tend to slow down once the knockout stages begin, as teams become more cautious and every goal becomes that little bit more important. 😬

So while the 312–313 guessers are looking pretty happy right now, there’s still a long way to go and plenty of twists and turns ahead.

⚽ Will the goals keep flowing?
⚽ Will the knockout rounds tighten things up?
⚽ Who’s going to be closest when the final whistle blows?

It’s still all to play for! 🏆

⭐ Important Update ⭐

I wanted to let everyone know about a temporary price increase in the van.

At present, fish market prices are at record high levels that neither my dad nor I have experienced during our years in the trade. Unfortunately, alongside these unprecedented fish costs, I am also facing significant increases in both fuel and van hire expenses.

As a result, I have no option but to increase some of my prices to help cover these rising costs. I understand this is not welcome news, and I appreciate your understanding and continued support during this period.

I am hopeful that market conditions will settle over the coming weeks, and if wholesale costs begin to reduce, I will review prices accordingly.

To put the situation into perspective, the wholesale cost of haddock is now higher than the retail price I was selling it for just a few weeks ago.

Thank you for your continued custom and support.
