Title: Watershed moment
Post by: BillyStubbsTears on March 16, 2010, 02:05:56 pm

Just noticed that we are poised at the point where the bookies have us at similar odds for going up and going down

18/1 against promotion with Paddy Power
23/1 against going down with Betfair.

Be nice to see the odds at 10/1 and 50/1 after tonight.

PS: If you fancy a flutter, Boylesports have us at 40/1 against going up.

Or you can get 12/1 against us making the play-offs with Bet365, which int bad odds considering that they have Cardiff odds on, Middlesborough at 9/2, Blackpool at 5/1 and Reading at 8/1. Win tonight and Saturday and we'd be a good bit shorter than 12/1.

Might have a closer look into that along with the top scorer stuff!!!!  Had Billy and Rovers on the scorecast on Sat so picked up 115 for a £5 bet!!!  May have to re-invest

How many years of sustained Championship football do you reckon it'll take before bookmakers begin to think it more likely we'd go up than go down before the start of a season?

I'd hazard a guess of at least 20.
