| Source | Claim captured | Result | Our record |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sporting Life — This Week's Acca (season 2026-27) | 11 October 2026 | Not directly comparable: the source counts a special payout (2UP); the method settles the standard market. | our record |
| Sporting Life — Jake Osgathorpe (season 2026-27) | 11 October 2026 | Not directly comparable: the season total is published without its rows, and the stake of each bet (0.25 to 2.5 points) sits outside the published record, so the total is the source’s own figure; the claimed period starts on 2026-08-01, before our collection of this source began (2026-09-28). | our record |
| Sporting Life — Jake Osgathorpe (September 2026) | 11 October 2026 | Its own rows add up to +7.45 points, not the +7.95 claimed. Not directly comparable: each row of its record is a whole column of several bets with one total, and the stake of each bet (0.25 to 2.5 points) sits outside the published record, so the total is the source’s own figure. | our record |
| SportsGambler — Richard Clarke (last 30 days) | 11 October 2026 | Not directly comparable: the source counts only the main match prediction of each preview; Forecast Record records every prediction in it; the Forecast Record record of SportsGambler covers the site as a whole. | our record |
| SportsGambler — Gabriel Oliveira (last 30 days) | 11 October 2026 | Not directly comparable: the source counts only the main match prediction of each preview; Forecast Record records every prediction in it; the Forecast Record record of SportsGambler covers the site as a whole. | our record |
| SportsGambler — George Edwards (last 30 days) | 11 October 2026 | Not directly comparable: the source counts only the main match prediction of each preview; Forecast Record records every prediction in it; the Forecast Record record of SportsGambler covers the site as a whole. | our record |
