Mr Fixit’s Tips


Mr Fixit Football Tipster: Current Status & Review

Key Update: The original “Mr Fixit” (Paul Jain) passed away in 2023. The brand is now operated by a digital media group.

1. Is there still a “Mr Fixit”?

The original personality is gone. Paul Jain, the legendary tipster for the Daily Record who founded the community, has sadly passed away. He was widely respected for his “bookie-bashing” accumulators and expertise in Scottish football.

New Ownership: The brand and website (mrfixitstips.co.uk) were acquired by North Star Network in March 2024. North Star is a sports media group that operates multiple sports news sites.

  • Who runs it now? It is operated by a team of content creators and tipsters rather than a single personality.
  • The Approach: The new owners utilize a “data-driven” approach while maintaining the site as a content hub.

2. Reviews for the Current Service (2024–2025)

Since the transition from a personal blog to a corporate-run site, the nature of reviews has changed:

  • Community Sentiment: The comment section remains the most valuable asset. The “Mr Fixit” community is very active, and long-time users often post high-quality tips in the comments that rival the official site content.
  • Performance Transparency: There are no verified third-party proofing records for the current team’s performance. The historical reputation belongs to Paul Jain, not the current writers.
  • Verdict: The site serves best as a news and statistics resource. The personal connection to the “Man in the Know” is no longer present.

3. What is on Offer: Tips & Betting Options

Leagues Covered

  • Scottish Football: Premiership, Championship, League 1 & 2 (Continuing the brand’s legacy).
  • English Leagues: Premier League, Championship, League One, League Two.
  • European Majors: La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1.
  • Major Tournaments: Champions League, Europa League, World Cup, Euros.

Betting Options & Tip Types

  • Accumulators (Accas): The site’s signature offering (combining multiple selections).
  • Banker Bets: Low-risk selections with a high probability of winning.
  • Both Teams to Score (BTTS): A highly popular market on the site.
  • Correct Score: High-odds predictions for exact match results.
  • Goals Over/Under: Predictions on total match goals (usually Over 2.5).

It might be an international break but there’s little to get excited about amidst the dead rubbers and one-sided mismatches.

It could […]

NFL Week 10; Things are heating up!

admin

A mixed week for the column last week as once again I smashed the International game getting predictions spot-on. The best spread was let down by the ineptness of the Falcons and, frankly, an injury to the Vikings QB which mixed things up in a bad way for me. I will admit to getting lucky by getting a push on […]
