That'll be the reason the odds are shortening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We stay up happy days, we go down then at least you've won some money out of a crap situation. Betting on it doesnt change the outcome or influence it.

Popular Post ruusowl Posted December 9, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) I bet on the pigs to beat us in every derby. If we win it feels like I've paid for the win which i'd gladly do anyway. If we lose it sucks but I can buy cocaine and hire a prostitute to forget my woes.

Bulldog Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Well, they have a Labour majority in the GE at 16/1 so I'd say they do! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 With the strong rumours of our impending point deduction I would say those odds are very generous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynecoyne14 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 the odds suddenly went from 33/1 to 8/1 on 05/12/19 (last thursday) before drifting out to 14/1 after saturdays win so something happened last thursday-maybe the news of the short paid salaries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the basis that the would get a 12 point deduction, we would be described as relegation candidates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're currently on track to achieve 74 points by the end of the season.

Ever the pessimist Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Immediately after we were charged I put £5 on at 100/1 with Skybet. Presumably a few others did too as they then took us off the market about half an hour later, before putting us back on at a much lower price. If the worst happens then I get £500. If it doesn't then I'll just about absorb losing the £5. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe bookies are also cautious about a fire sale in January leaving us in the bottom 3 and the best players leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, because that's Chansiri's modus operandi, isn't it? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We stay up happy days, we go down then at least you've won some money out of a crap situation. Betting on it doesnt change the outcome or influence it. just don't agree with anyone who puts money on us to go down its the equivalent of some smack head stealing off his mother or kid as I don't think a lot realise the seriousness the state the club would be in , just staying in league 1 would be an achievement , at all costs we must avoid going down ,it would be financial suicide ,we are appx 20 million over budget if the efl don't allow the ground sale , going down the club would be about 10-12 million a season worse off , im pretty sure chansiri would consider putting us into administration to clear all the wages what we cant afford now even with the extra 10-12 million what you get staying in the championship. it could be that we would be in boltons predicament and that's a very real threat. lets hope common sense happens and at worst we get something like 10 points and then can move on from this.

I don't think £500 beer money or buying a new phone cuts it for me ,seeing my club put in a very serious situation along with been relegated and likelihood that it would be quite a few years for club to bounce back.
