Today we’re pleased to introduce the newest addition to our SBC Premium range: Phil Smith Select.
It’s a new football antepost betting service we’ve developed with full time professional bettor Phil Smith, designed to provide a more accessible way to benefit from his specialist approach to betting on long term football markets.
If you enjoy football betting but want to look beyond the usual match markets, we think this is a particularly interesting service to consider for the season ahead.
Phil Smith Select is now live and available for £150 for the entire season.

Who Is Phil?
Many of you may already know Phil from Episode 101 of the SBC Podcast, where he joined me to discuss his career as a professional bettor and his specialism in football antepost markets and exchange trading.
Phil’s route into professional betting was far from instant.
He spent years learning from early losses, refining his approach and building his bankroll before eventually becoming a full time bettor in 2020.
Betfair trading initially formed an important part of that journey, but in recent years Phil has increasingly focused on football antepost betting.
His approach centres on identifying value well before markets are settled, building a portfolio across numerous positions and actively managing those bets as prices and circumstances change throughout the season.
As Phil explained to me on the podcast:
“Why did they bet now and not later, that’s the question you should be asking.”
That thinking is at the heart of how Phil approaches antepost betting.
The Results That Caught Our Attention
We’ve been following Phil’s betting for some time and first reviewed his Antepost service back in May 2024.
We returned to it again this summer, and the results were exceptional.
*At the time of our latest SBC review in mid May, Phil’s full Antepost service had advised 1,799 bets, generating £62,096.74 profit from £85,051.88 staked, an ROI of 72.99%.
And the season wasn’t finished.
By the time the final positions were settled in June, Phil’s eventual ROI had risen beyond 100%.
Those numbers naturally caught our attention, but just as important was the structured process behind them.
Phil combines detailed research and value identification with diversification, disciplined staking and active management of his positions throughout the season.
That led us to consider whether we could create a version of his approach that would be practical for a wider group of bettors to follow.

Introducing Phil Smith Select
The biggest challenge with Phil’s full Antepost service is simply the commitment required to follow it properly.
There are a lot of bets, significant capital requirements and plenty of ongoing portfolio management.
Phil Smith Select has been created as a more streamlined alternative.
Rather than following every position from the full service, Select advises approximately 50 to 60% of the betting volume, with a greater emphasis on specialist goalscorer markets alongside selected long term football positions.
The same underlying approach remains.
The difference is that Select should require considerably less time, fewer bookmaker accounts and a smaller betting bank.
Members receive:
- Football antepost bets throughout the season
- Approximately 50 to 60% of the volume of Phil’s full service
- A greater focus on specialist goalscorer markets
- Access required to just four or five major bookmakers
- A recommended betting bank starting from approximately £1,500
- Active portfolio management, including cash out advice where appropriate
- Two dedicated Telegram channels, one for official bets and another for discussion, updates and portfolio management
The cost is £150 for the entire season.
A Different Addition To Your Betting Portfolio
One reason we’re particularly interested in Phil’s approach is how different it is from most football betting services.
Rather than concentrating exclusively on matches taking place today or this weekend, Phil is looking much further ahead.
That might mean identifying value in a goalscorer market before a player’s prospects are fully reflected in the price, or taking a season long position that Phil believes could become considerably more valuable as the campaign develops.
There is also an active management element.
Positions can be traded, cashed out or adjusted as circumstances change.
For bettors accustomed to traditional match betting, it provides exposure to a very different type of football betting.
Specialist betting approaches from people whose methods and results we have researched closely, giving serious bettors access to opportunities they might otherwise struggle to find.
Phil Smith Select is now open for the new football season at £150.
