bcfc01 Posted May 31, 2021 Report Share Posted May 31, 2021 Needless to say, City aren't fancied and 4/1 to get relegated with 10/1 for promotion. Doesn't mean a lot at this stage I suppose..

cityloyal473 Posted May 31, 2021 Report Share Posted May 31, 2021 I fancy Peterborough to be a dark horse this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted May 31, 2021 Report Share Posted May 31, 2021 If I were spread betting I`d be selling Hull and buying Stoke. Both their prices look a little bit off to me - Hull are too short and Stoke too long IMO. I`ll probably give it a few weeks before deciding though.

Supersonic Robin Posted May 31, 2021 Report Share Posted May 31, 2021 Little bit insulted to see the bookies predicting Hull and Birmingham to have better seasons than us. I appreciate we were crap this season, but still..... In fairness, I suppose our performances in the second half of last season were pretty damning statistically.

Red-Robbo Posted May 31, 2021 Report Share Posted May 31, 2021 It's genuinely tough to see where we'll finish. So much rests on extensive recruitment. Bookies odds this early on are w*** though. Lots simply reflect last season's positions and the size of the fanbase. Teams like Forest always are predicted decent finishes, simply because they have lots of fans backing them.

Seems that after years of the bookies thinking we will be there or thereabouts they’ve had a rethink. Reverse logic says that it’s our opportunity to beat the bookies, the pundits and even some of our fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanatopia Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 bcfc01; when exactly do made up odds mean anything? Such a list at any time of year is utterly meaningless. I don't know why people pay any attention to them at all. Its a bookie whim; its a business. It has absolutely nothing to do with reality. Even 10, 20, 30 games in the odds mean nothing; the form book can change in a couple of games. If you are top with 2 games to go and 5 points ahead you know the odds are going to be 1-3 on. Again; meaningless. Its just one big guessing game. Woe betide anyone who uses this list as a predictive league table; it will not come to pass.

Robbored Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 10/1 for promotion is ridiculously short odds. 25/1 would be more realistic. It’ll be Nige’s first season and I’m certainly not expecting to be in the promotion race nor am I expecting to be in a relegation dog fight. Signs of improvement in performances and a top half finish will do me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also of possible interest is that their Season Ticket offering for 2021/22 has not yet been announced, gone on sale- plus saw from what might be a reliable source on Twitter, they certainly do a lot of digging anyway, that the last tranche of the MSD loans to them were due in May- after that who knows how it looks moving forward.
