atherstoneram Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 The situation is what it is i am neither for or against him. Until either he or someone else decides it's time for a change he remains the manager. Yes he's a rookie but everyone has to start somewhere and capable of making mistakes while he is learning the trade. What i would say is that he is learning to walk before he can run and realising the mistakes,you can't always put mistakes right straight away but you cannot fault his commitment unlike Lampard who, getting a bit of a taste of success, and probably thinking this manager lark is easy decides he can become just as successful at Chelsea so he upsticks, not only upsticks but leaves the club in limbo during the closed season by playing guessing games and we all know how it worked out at Chelsea don't we.

Bookies set their prices and lay off bets according to the bets they receive on each outcome, it's not about them being right or wrong it's about them winning whatever the outcome is. kevinhectoring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Durden Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 5 minutes ago, Foreveram said: So how do they set their original odds Bookies will use a variety of factors, one being how likely they think punters will bet on each outcome so they balance their books regardless of the outcome. Its not about them being right or wrong it's about them winning whatever the final outcome is. How many times does the bookies favourite win in a horse race for example? Then that's your answer in terms of them never getting the result wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the next step is to go for the high earners and get shot of them. Rooney’s wage bill is rumored to be substantial, so would be the obvious first stop, then I imagine Wassall promoted from within Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
