dezgimed Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 We seem to be heading for a top 2 place. The exchanges (Betfair etc) currently have us layable for promotion at 1.20-1.25 (although limited liquidity). In simple terms you should be able to bet AGAINST us getting promotion in layman terms of around 4/1 or 5.0 with the bookies. Would anyone consider betting against us going up, potentially losing your stake but getting a nice return as compensation if we cock this up? I may have a look in 4-5 weeks time. Win win.

Olé Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 I've been betting against City or laying them on the exchanges for some weeks now - I absolutely look at it like paying for promotion with a money back guarantee. It's only worth doing when your team is successful and opponents odds are long. It doesn't change who I'm supporting, quite the opposite, I'm putting money on recent matches where I'm massively emotionally invested because in my mind we couldn't afford to slip up in order to stay top. I call it "emotional insurance". Haven't thought about insuring the season outcome, it's the individual results I'm wrapped up in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingswood Village Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Dont bet on the city full stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aizoon Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Dont bet on the city full stop. I've done quite nicely this season betting on the score. Of course, having a prescient insectivore in the house helps. Just wish I'd put a few quid on us drawing Gills away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 I've never bet against city and never will Everytime I've bet on them they lose too. So I just avoid them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Think the only times I've ever bet on games involving City has been for stuff like both teams to score and goals over/under 1.5 etc where the outcome isn't involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
