R@M Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 20 hours ago, Tyler Durden said: Seeing as the odds quoted are for winning the league which we have absolutely no chance whatsoever I'd have said 16/1 were really poor odds to be fair. Add another zero then we're getting towards the right ballpark. Surely 5000/1 would be more accurate for ‘absolutely zero chance whatsoever’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Durden Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Just now, R@M said: Surely 5000/1 would be more accurate for ‘absolutely zero chance whatsoever’ I agree. As I've already posted previously yesterday can see why bookies make so much money as the odds they offer are totally disconnected from the actual probability of an event happening, always in their favour obviously.

For a team still with a points deductions hovering over them the odds are non reflective, simple as. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampant Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 On 22/08/2020 at 11:39, Rampant said: What is interesting is that we are 16/1 for the league (same as PNE) yet 4/1 to be relegated (PNE are 16/1 for the drop). Bookies are pricing our relegation odds as if we have a points deduction in place. Not suggesting they have insider knowledge but they are certainly taking no chances. Those relegation odds went from 4/1 to 12/1 immediately once the EFL announcement was made. I suspect if there was no chance of an appeal by the EFL that those odds would be 16/1 or greater too.

They had a very strong second half of the season. Very similar points total as us in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Derby now out to 12/1 ((from 4's) to be relegated. Looks like Gibson's done his wad again ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top scorers tend to 90% or more of the total minutes over a season. As it’s most likely Marriott will be battling with Waghorn for the CF spot, I doubt he’ll play enough to score more than 20 - 15 would be a very good season for him. I’d put my money Pukki, Watkins or Grant if they remain in the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another year older, so even if he did play enough, he probably wouldn’t better his goal return from last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Mash Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 The odds on the Gumps capitulation/Swansea win must've been worth a go. Don't gamble myself but for those who do, anyone remember what the odds were? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
