Are these available for sale? I'm down to my last 16 sheets of loo roll and could do with a top up.

I've just paused Sky Sports on my phone. If you check future bills in My Account, you can see the amended monthly bill. Mine has gone from 100 to 70 per month. If I have to sign up for another contract, I'll worry about that if and when it happens.

Indeed. Useless Eustace.

Just checked Skybet. They are offering me £2.02 cashout for the £10 bet.

It was on here to be fair.

Points deductions don't make the bet invalid (as far as I'm reliably informed).

I posted this on the betting thread but thought it worthy of everyone's view on relegation, trying looking at it without emotion and purely from betting a sense. I had £10 on us to go down at 100/1 when I heard of the potential points deduction. I've always said it's a bet that I don't want to win. My £10 bet is currently suspended on Skybet. Last time I looked, they were offering £2ish cash out for a £10 bet. Be interesting to see what they're offering now. I've just been looking at the league table. Luton and Barnsley look gone, and to catch us, they need 5 wins. Hull are in a similar run of form to us and they sold their 2 best players and not recovered from it. They could easily go down. Charlton are crap, even we beat them. That said, I think they might scrape out of it. Boro, Stoke and Huddersfield, I think they will all survive and they may all catch us if we continue our poor recent run. Wigan might just have enough to stay up. Our current goal difference is worth an extra point unless we get more nasty beatings like yesterday. My conclusion is that I think we need 1 more win out of the remaining 9 games to be safe. Maybe a draw as well. Looking at the fixtures, regardless of what people think of Monk, I think we will get this. We will be safe. The elephant in the room, and the reason that some 'shrewd' punters have latched onto at big odds is the possible/impending points deduction. If that happens, even if it is only 6 points, I think we will go down.

Which brings us back to the whole vicious cycle. Bad management from Monk or player power getting out of hand? You decide.

Agree with the sentiment but when in a relegation battle, then ideally you play your best players. And I know who I would rather have in the team. And it's not the limited Pelupessy.

As I said on another thread, it looks dodgy, sounds dodgy and therefore my conclusion is that there is an element of dodginess about the whole thing.

Not sure it needed another thread though.
