peacock1961 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Should have mentioned, but years ago I put a fiver on manure getting relegated. 750-1. Bloke behind the counter openly questioned my sanity, until I explained that I'd get value from the fiver by showing manure fans the betting slip.

DC should lump on 2m @ 14/1 If we gets points deduction and a fine all sorted. Thinking about it DC can't bet himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Them putting money on a bet is not damaging the welfare of the club though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Theboylangers Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Not often I want a bet of mine to lose but had £10 at 100/1 that we'd be relegated. You have to view these things dispassionately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SallyCinnamon Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I had 20 quid on us to go down. A small thing to shout about when the points deduction comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damages the energy field , no doubt about that. No wonder we've had two decades in the wilderness with this sort of thing going on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bulgaria Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Might be wrong but I think I read somewhere that bets are void if a points penalty is used to relegate a team. For the record I make a few quid on betting on us to lose in Dave Jones final weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyTrev Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 On Skybet you could get us and Barnsley to go down together at 150/1. That’s now 200/1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
