Top 6 finish - 33/1 Play-off finish - 66/1 Doesn't make sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtawnyowl Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 (edited) Perhaps 'play-off finish' means you are predicting your team to finish in places 3 to 6. i.e. you won't be paid out if they finish in top 2 unless you have wagered 'top 6'.

Prince Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 (edited) Got £50 on @ 5-1 for a top half finish the day Jos was flushed. Underperforming side held back by his lack of managerial ability and the strange choice to freeze our best players out.

sonofbert2 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Pretty sure OP is a self-confirmed grunter and possibly on a bit of a wind up.....Bless.... There's a sort of cuteness to it really when you think about it. Seasons end when they finish and there is a very long way to go. You'd think they'd learn but they never will or do. Best of luck Sheffield United in what now is the year of the pig. Been right up there all season and now it's simply yours to lose..... No pressure.

Highly likely I’ve wasted a tenner, but I was half cut and skipping round the room with joy that he’d gone so I don’t care.

I do think we need to keep a modicum of reality in mind though and give Steve the time he needs. exactly,think 1 or 2 getting a bit ahead of themselves on here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

handworth52 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 9pts off playoffs with a game in hand and next 5 games winnable would say we have a chance of top 6 a lot better than the 40-1 odds but to have that chance of top 6 we need to score 2-3 goals consistently ,if we had a fit and firing hooper and a Antonio type in the side we would have a chance but sadly we have neither ,fletcher scores about 1 in 10 chances he gets missed several decent chances this season he should have nearer 20 goals than the 6-7 he has . but nothing is impossible and might as well have ago seen that we have seen relegation off what was certain under jos.

Why would it a wind up if I was telling people to get on it at 5/1 then 7/2???? I'll give you a "like" if that's what your after.

We don't have a game in hand on the teams in 6th and 7th position. Whilst we do have a game in hand over the teams above us up to 8th that irrelevant in the context of a top six finish.
