I managed to get 66/1 for promotion at the end of September. Could be interesting in more ways than one!

We are currently longer odds for a top half finish than:
Grimsby
Newport (Ahead of these 3 in the table)
MK Dons
Walsall
Morecambe
Crawley
Harrogate
I would be interested to hear the thoughts of GazLaz on this one. Is this reasonable or are we a bit of a blind spot for the bookies?

We have to keep improving to finish top half. Even over the last 6 games, where opinion is we’ve been very good, we’ve only been the 11th or 12th best team in the division performance wise.

Or perhaps other teams above get worse. Which can happen as injuries and fixture swings occur.

Gaz,
We’ve got 15 points from the last 7 games, the games we haven’t won we’ve been unlucky.
I’m interested in why you think we need to improve even further on this form to get into the top half.
Surely if we continue with this form we will be around the playoffs come Xmas never mind the top half

who with,?
-
Only 11/4 with Sky Bet now but that's almost 3/1 which seems generous still
I got 7 to 2 then we beat Sutton and it went up to 4 to 1
Others said it was"printing money" and they had 50 quids and more on
I'll settle for £16.77 or whatever it is to return £77 (ish)
-
Just checked Oddschecker and 11 to 4 is biggest they show
2 to 1 is the lowest

Those were bissy times. I always said you weren't a "worthless" individual. You are a valued member of the site (3d to be exact).
the "3x penny" never dropped with you but at least the penny has dropped with sly sports as they cut the odds
from the point of view of top half finish it matters not if we lose to Salford full stop
remember Exeter in the season we threw the Championship away

here we go
a certain member of our clan will be having an "orgasm" when he reads this Exeter were second bottom
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/37881326
"Liam Mandeville came off the bench in the second half to to score one goal and create two for John Marquis as Doncaster Rovers fought back to beat Exeter City.
Mandeville replaced Niall Mason after 69 minute and levelled for Doncaster three minutes later after Exeter had taken the lead through Reuben Reid's penalty.
Reid smashed the ball home after David Wheeler had been brought down by goalkeeper Marko Mariso inside the penalty box.
The lead lasted until the 72nd minute when Mandeville met a James Coppinger cross to head in off the underside of the crossbar as Exeter seemingly froze after going in front.
Reid then had a shot well saved by Mariso, but Doncaster went in front on 78 minutes when a low cross from Mandeville was turned in by John Marquis from six yards.
And Mandeville turned provider again in the 90th minute when he slipped the ball to Marquis, who again beat Exeter goalkeeper James Hamon.
The win sees Darren Ferguson's side go third in the table, while Exeter are yet to win at home this season as the pressure on manager Paul Tisdale continues to grow."

now look at this in the return match another 3-1 win to the away side
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39676830
Exeter were now 5th in the same season from 2nd bottom and some nobody called Ollie Watkins scored :headbang: :headbang: - i only just found that fact out
"Exeter City booked their place in the League Two play-offs with an impressive victory over long-time leaders Doncaster at the Keepmoat Stadium.
Goals from Jordan Moore-Taylor, David Wheeler and Liam McAlinden were enough for Exeter to condemn Doncaster to a third straight defeat which saw them slip to second place in the table behind Plymouth.
Moore-Taylor smashed in a 30-yard thunderbolt after 16 minutes, but Rovers were level in 26th minute when James Coppinger finished well from a tight angle.
The Dons endured a frustrating second half attempting to break Exeter down, and the visitors regained the lead just after the hour.
They were awarded a penalty when Joe Wright handled on the line, and although Ryan Harley saw his spot-kick saved by Ian Lawlor, Wheeler drilled in the rebound.
The win was sealed late on when Ollie Watkins squared for substitute McAlinden to score"
-
I will always remember this post match interview on the Exeter site of the Exeter Manager after they had lost to us 3-1
and he goes on about all his players . I always thought how suicidal AND DEPRESSED he felt.
Seriously you must listen to it -- it does go on and on for nearly 6 minutes - BUT HE CAME GOOD IN THE END OF THE SEASON :thumbsup:-- AT THE TIME THEY STILL HADN'T WON A HOME MATCH - JUST LISTEN TO HIS INJURY LIST

sky sports are once again offering 100/30 for a top half finish (yes please) and 20/1 (no thank you) for top 7

I’ll invest a few more shillings at Mr Hills in the next couple of days if they are offering 5/2 or greater

I found out yesterday that the 100/30 for a top half was not the best odds available UNBELIVABLY 4/1 WAS AVAILABLE at BET VICTOR AFTER THE CREWE LOSS
AND AS AT THIS MORNING THEY WERE STILL OFFERING 3/1 -- RUMOUR IS TWO MEN IN WHITE COATS WILL BE VISITING THEM TODAY TO PLACE THEIR WAGES (AND WAGER) ON ROVERS AND WHEN THEY COLLECT THEIR WINNINGS THEIR ODDS MAKER WILL COME WITH THEM.
-
6 teams we can realistically finish ahead of to finish at least 11th in my opinion.
Crawley - A team on the decline and exceeded expectations at the start of the season. Only 4 points ahead of us.
Morecambe - Just lost Derek Adams and have appointed a rookie cheap option. The stats suggest they had been slightly lucky with their strong start. Have lost their last 2 including a 6-0.
Swindon - Very leaky defence. Score lots of goals but in the form of 2 loanees - Young and Kemp. Both their parent clubs have had managerial changes so would likely recall both in Jan.
Harrogate - Only a point ahead and we have a game in hand.
Newport - Only 2 points ahead of us and we have a game in hand.
Accrington - Near the bottom of the form table and we looked a lot better than them in that FA home tie. Uncertainty over Coleman’s position in the future.
-
William Hills ( shop not online ) had us at 2/1 yesterday, I invested a few more pounds at that because I don’t think it’ll get any bigger
-
Best price is 3/1 at BetVictor

Now since I have your attention it's an epic weekend with William Hill
they are letting you have £5 at evens (they are pretending the true odds are 500/1) that both teams combined will have one shot or more on target in the match Newcastle v Manu which is at 8 pm on Saturday --- you can have £5 on - on line and £5 in a william hill shop - SO BASICALLY IT'S A FREE FIVA X2-- HAS THERE EVER BEEN A PREMIERSHIP MATCH WHERE BOTH TEAMS HAVE NOT HAD A SHOT ON TARGET ??
(so take your wives Xmas shopping when/if the Rovers match is off and put one on for her - and you have got her Xmas present - £5 note)

Same here hound, and I’m still confident that it was a good bet.
-
bet victor still has 3/1
-
I steered clear but very much hope I am wrong
-
Looks like Swindon may be deducted points due to breaching EFL regulations. Could help the top half bet out.
-
If we win tomorrow we close the gap to the 12th place team to a maximum of 3.if the franchise don’t win it will be less than that.

What a diff a day makes . The gd adds another point effectively making it 7 from 12th
-
Bet it will be 5 to 1 now
-
I’m beginning to think that what I thought was a certainty, is now becoming very unlikely.
-
Lots of people are watching their huge and seeming money printing bets look less likely
Me for one £16.57 to return £77 which I thought was nailed on when I placed it and until yesterday
Hoping GM gets them sorted and is assisted by better news injury wise.

I said this almost a month ago and sadly haven’t seen anything to change my mind:
“By and large we’ll win the home games and lose the away games. Look very good at times which will make people start mentally spending their winnings from a top half finish and suggesting we can make a play off push whilst floating around 15th-18th. Unless something dramatic changes I can’t see us pushing much further up the table.”
EDIT - actually something that has changed is that the playoff talk will probably stop now.
-
I put £15 on at 9/2 and cashed out last night for £23.94. Surprising.

This is all largely right. We aren’t consistent in performance or results, and can look good against what are poor sides, but now and again against much better sides, but our poorest performances have been against what are poor sides - Newport County, Salford and Morecambe.
It’s the same problems again and again. A terrible defensive unit, lack of creativity across the midfield but especially without Close and Westbrooke, and a good pair in Faal and Ironside but a one-dimensional pair who must be absolutely knackered. Enveloping all this is a mental weakness in elements of the squad.
Saying that, this season is still much more enjoyable than the last few years. I hope more than anything we can get a grip on the injury situation because it has become even worse than it has been the last few years. We have a large squad but less than half the players are ever available.
-
Bet it will be 5 to 1 now
Strangely, after hovering around 11/4 - 3/1 for three months, it's tumbled down to 15/8 after yesterday.
I really don't get it. But I'm tempted to cash out the bet I had on at 3/1.
-
Swindon who occupy the halfway mark, 12th position have 6 points more than us and have played a game more.

is this yet another one of those "virtual events" in your life like the "virtual milkman" if you cash out with any other bookmaker apart from slysports they will rip- you off summat wicked
and 3/1 was still available after the tide turned against Morecambe with Victor
-
Still only 9/2. Salford a point behind 12/1.

Salford are atrocious. I’m on them at 40/1 for relegation.

11/2 for a top half finish now ( William Hills 30/12/23 10.45 am )
-
We need at the very least another 35 points for a top half finish.
P20 W10 D5 L5
More likely to be another 39-40 required.
P20 W12 D3-4 L4-5
It's not going to happen. I cashed out my bets for a small profit when we inexplicably dropped in price to 5/2 a couple of weeks ago.

So….
:huh:

Accy, who are exactly mid table currently have a ppg of 1.4. Rovers after today are now at 1.06 ppg.
Assuming the form of most teams remains constant, it would need a very good run for rovers to reach mid table from here. Or some catastrophic declines by teams currently mid table. Or a mix of both.
A win against Salford would up the ppg to 1.13.
Another win against Grimsby and it goes to just 1.18.
And dare to dream, we beat wimbledon away also, and we are still only looking at 1.24 ppg.
In fact , just speaking hypothetically, rovers would need to win the next 6 games on the bounce, and even then the ppg would still be just under 1.4, the same as what accy are currently.
I think you get the picture.
Is it possible? Of course.
Is it likely. Probably not.
Rovers results have been so dire they have given themselves a mountain to climb even to reach mid table.

Wimbledon is at home isn’t it?

Chipping away!
14/1 in from 20/1 14 days ago.
-
Ha Ha - yes I was walking out today with mate and I suddenly stopped and pulled Phone out and looked at it . He looked at me looking at it and I said "Yahoo" and he fell for it
What or who is that. I said "Skybet have just offered me a Cashout " What for he says further hooked. 25 quid for my Top half finish , but we aren't in top half yet - where are we , and I said still 20th but its coming just wait and see
-
Chipping away!
14/1 in from 20/1 14 days ago.
Now down to 8/1! :woot:
-
i'll guess we are 9/2 now
but there are a couple of matches that should go our way on Sunday and Monday
14:00
Salford City Fc v Morecambe
&
Monday 18th March 2024 19:45
Crawley v Stockport
us playing Crawley is just what the Doctor ordered
Morecambe & Crawley to lose
-
as Salford go 2-0 up after 55 minutes :thumbsup:
are we seeing the "parting of the red sea" to enable us to exit the bottom half of the division to the "Promised Land of the Top Half" ?
fingers crossed for Monday night :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:
-
Notts County at 6/5 for a top half finish is wild. Not a chance they get that yet they are favoured over us, Tranmere, Harrogate and Accrington?!
-
saturday we have morecambe v Gillingham
tran v Crawley - crawlee should not win that
there will be a lot of dog eat dog matches between teams 8th to 12th
our goal difference is -13 rising steadily
walsall+5
gilling -9
crawley +1 (dont forget the goal swing is dubble bubble when we beat them)
newport 0
morecambe -8
harrog -12

I bet £50 for a top half finish months ago. A few weeks back the cash out was about £12. That has now risen to £32 which is 64% of my money back. Now, I love donny to do well but I have to be realistic and in my mind we need at least 16 points to have a chance of 12th. That would equate to a w5 d1 l3 of our last 9 games and I dont think, given our inconsistent form over the whole season that that is too unrealistic. So that would leave us with 62 points. Would that be enough? Its been enough before but can we get the points? This is the beauty of betting of course but after holding firm all season I'm beginning to think that it may be a lost battle and we will come up just short. I know we are in good form and it might sound a bit mad that only now I am questioning this but I think this hill may be just a bit too steep a climb.
-
Also while im on about betting I had at the beginning of the season, before a ball was kicked, a tenner on Man city, Leicester, Portsmouth and Stockport to win their leagues at odds of 450/1. What a bet I know, and I havent said anything in case I somehow jinx it but it seems now with 8 games to go stockport are going to f**k me over, but just in case it does go to the final weekend (of the efl) and anyone hears any loud screams or very loud crying coming from the goldthorpe area, it will probably be me.

That was a decent four choices matey and the odds you got seem quite generous.
I hope it comes in for you.
-
Thankyou hound, I actually bet £10 each way so if they place which would mean man city top 2 and the rest finish in the top 4 I would win the paltry sum of £115. That and my donny top half bet (£250) would give me £365 off of £70 and that is what im realistically holding out for. Its been an exciting season for me for different reasons I just hope it can go to the final weekend (of the efl that is, the premier league finishes over 2 weeks later which is absurd imho.)
-
The way Leeds are going you're not safe with Leicester either
-
I hope no one had big money on us under DF in L2 a few years ago either.

I am about the same gr.
I put 2 bets on totalling £16.57 ( incidentally Doncaster Rovers Locomotive was numbered 61657 ) to win £77 ish
My cash out has just gone to just over a Tenner but I will stay bullish because I was sure like many this top half bet was " printing money"
I am still hopeful we might just do it
-
I hope no one had big money on us under DF in L2 a few years ago either.
as i keep posting on here we went to odds of 50/1 on that means put £1 on to win 2p and i hedged - then to top it off some bookie gave me a free bet at poor odds of only 66/1 when they were 100/1 elsewhere and since it was free for once i took poor odds - that year Exeter were 2nd bottom when we beat them away
due to selbys "love child" (only joking) turning the match around and Exeter made the play offs

Chipping away!
14/1 in from 20/1 14 days ago.
Now 3/1 again across 3 bookmakers. Can we keep going!?

Will be lucky to get 3/1 now. What a run!, keep it going please haha

I’m glad I didn’t lose my nerve and cash in a few weeks ago.

Yes, Leicester seem to be doing what we did a few years ago, losing a one horse race.

Maybe leeds will have a blip, they are certainly due one. All i ask is that I'm in with a chance come the final weekend.
-
I stuck £20 on Leeds last week at 2/1. Couldn’t believe that price given recent form and the fact they were level on points (albeit with Leicester having a game in hand).
-
They have won every league game this year, bar a single draw against Huddersfield.

Skybet odds down to 10/11 on top half finish now
-
I had a tenner on after the Sutton game at 4/1 and had all but given up in January. I checked it on Sunday and the cash out had finally moved to positive (pennies) but after last night my cash out is £22. I'm letting it ride for sure given the next couple of games.

Mine is at £110 off of £50. Its going to come in, up the rovers!!!

Without actually going and checking my betting slips I’m looking at approximately £750 for a top half finish
-
I’m in for £800 top half finish.
-
Can’t check mine as I’m away lol
-
12th place with 5 to go!
-
Waiting to see the latest cash out figure!!
-
Mines jumped a tenner to £32 out of a £50 payout.
-
12th place with 5 to go!
And the five teams immediately below us have played more games than us.
-
My cash out has jumped from £171 to £254.
-
I get £1300 for top half
£500 for top 7
£1400 for promotion
-
Mine has gone to 49.72 for the 16.57 I put on
That's 3x my Stake plus 1p
-
20/1 on ladbrokes for donny top 7 finish, great odds in light of current form, league position and our next 5 opponents, win on Tuesday night and I think we will finish the rest of the season unbeaten. Go to Gillingham on the last day of the season and securing that playoff spot.
-
a la Bristol Rovers after Cardiff ?
-
Waiting to see the latest cash out figure!!
Mines gone up to £158 off of £50
-
Are you tempted or just watching. We have the same ratio of Cashout by look of it.
Mine is 3 times my Stake plus 1p lol
Presumably if we beat Walsall theoretically I would expect Cashout to go up further
But if we drew / lost v Walsall we shouldn't go too far down as surely we should still finish 12 th or higher ?
-
I have had a few bets through season so I have 5 open bets, one of then was a tenner on promotion when this thread promoted me it was 200-1 !
I never cash out. I'm in for.....
Top half £650
Promotion £3,500
COYR!!!
-
Wow ...great position to be in.
Think you will scoop the Top Half Bet , and really hope you do the Promo as well
As Ive said a few times now Bristol Rovers made it after losing JPT Final at Cardiff scraping into Play offs last game of Season then winning Play Off Final , so can be done
-
Be careful on cash outs people if it goes to the wire. Bookies pull the cash out option at their own discretion. The feckers.

All we can do is win all of our games if we do that I honestly think we will make it, deservedly so. We would also go into the play offs having played 5-10 Cup finals to get there, none of the others would want to play us after a run of 11 straight wins.
-
Im leaving my cash out as I think we'll comfortably finish top half now. I also had a fiver on top 7 at 23/1 and a fiver on promotion at 67/1. The cash outs on them are both £5-6 so I may as well leave them as well I reckon. My league winners bet went well yesterday also.
All in all an exciting finish to the season, UTR!!
-
I’ve never really understood cashing out a £5/£10 or even £20 bet. The cash out is always heavily favourable to the bookie so unless you’ve got a big sum that you staked initially that you really need back it’s always better to let it run.

Also while im on about betting I had at the beginning of the season, before a ball was kicked, a tenner on Man city, Leicester, Portsmouth and Stockport to win their leagues at odds of 450/1. What a bet I know, and I havent said anything in case I somehow jinx it but it seems now with 8 games to go stockport are going to f**k me over, but just in case it does go to the final weekend (of the efl) and anyone hears any loud screams or very loud crying coming from the goldthorpe area, it will probably be me.
That was a decent four choices matey and the odds you got seem quite generous.
I hope it comes in for you.
3 out of 4 its twitchy bum time now

it isn't a well known fact but the weekend we won our first match of the season at Forest Green a very large bookmaker had it's worst football weekend ever -- bookmakers all got slaughtered with last minute switch back results (eg the Lazarus* win for- Tottenham over Sheff United )- who led until was it injury time ? - & was it Man u did the same trick ? -someone did in the premiership
with all these obvious (at least on paper) favourites winning the leagues the bookmakers are going to have fairy tale results. AGAIN
As Les Dawson would say ......... "GRIM"
*EVERYTHING IS LAZARUSTIC at the moment even Sheffield Wednesday now 17/1 for relegation
-
I had a decent 4 figure pay out and have a similar riding on promotion

I wouldnt say obvious favourites have won leagues 1 and 2. At the beginning of the season when I put that bet on stockport were 6/1 and around 4th favourites whilst portsmouth were even further out at 10/1. Its taken a lot of other things to go right for them (and Leicester) to win their leagues so heres hoping Man city can finish the job for me.
