Greg Gordon

Sabotaging since 8 Aug 2011

Greg Gordon is a freelance writer, professional punter and erstwhile football scout based in Glasgow. For over a decade his work appeared in The FT, The Sunday Times and The Observer. However, a year-long assignment on professional tipsters in the latter encouraged Greg to put his Scottish football betting on a professional footing and his interest in scouting stems from a rainy afternoon spent poring over the immaculate triplicate notebooks of Leeds United’s 70s super scout John Barr. When he is not mining the depths of Scotland’s lower leagues for punting inspiration Greg runs the sites www.progambler.co.uk, www.scottishfootballbets.com and edits the editorial content for www.secretbettingclub.com the online betting community for punters of all abilities..
