I personally think you’re chatting bs and not sure what you’re trying to prove or achieve, however if you believe there’s a chance then I’d suggest you stop betting and definitely don’t give up your clearly highly paid day job.

westonred Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 I think we will just about stay up but the only games i feel we will get points from are Huddersfield and Rotherham at home and they will both be fighting for there lives and we'll probably be in deckchair mode by then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna stick £100 on City at those odds. We appear in the list of possibilities because suckers will then put £100 bets on, which is free money for the bookies. Not because we'll go down. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna stick £100 on City at those odds. We’ve been on the list of possibilities since last July being amongst the favourites for the drop before a ball was even kicked….as is usually the case no matter how strong we finish the previous season. Assuming we stay up we will start next season back amongst the favourites to go down. Unlike the last few seasons I’ve got zero confidence that our owners or manager will prove the bookies wrong this time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last two weekends has seen a hell of a lot go in our favour - there are teams below us who are in even worse shape then us I really hope this is the year Birmingham go - would be hilarious Edited March 17 by Andy082005 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 That is odds reflective of an unlikely event and a chance for bookies to make a few quid on hopeful punts. Not a bet I would get drawn in for even a fiver, however, I would bet decent money on that being closer 50/1 in about 3 games time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last two weekends has seen a hell of a lot go in our favour - there are teams below us who are in even worse shape then us I really hope this is the year Birmingham go - would be hilarious The Birmingham situation has so many similarities to our own. Well-liked Manager/Head Coach doing pretty well with the team in challenging circumstances sacked by the owners against the wishes of supporters. New coach brought in has something of a media profile but no tangible success and in fact coached a team that was subsequently relegated. Both new coaches struggle massively and results deteriorate as does the league position. One then ditches the out-of-his-depth coach and replaces him with a wise old manager who initially seems to improve things but then needs time away for health issues (part of the reason the other club cited for getting rid of their well-liked manager) in which time results again nosedive. The risks are similar at pretty much the same at every club in the Championship without parachute payments and not riding the crest of a promotion wave of confidence - get your top footballing position wrong through either naivety or stupidity and things can easily end badly. As for City we are lucky that 2 out of the 3 promoted clubs this season haven’t been good enough to survive at this level, while other “established Championship clubs” I.e. Stoke, Birmingham, Swansea have been similarly poor for long periods. You can’t just expect that to happen every season because eventually bad decisions will catch up with you. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The longer we go on a losing streak again (I can’t see us picking up any points in the next 2 games) the more the odds will drop, especially if a large number of punters starting placing bets on it. Its just the way it works! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was 500/1 2 weeks ago, Predictably in those 2 game weeks since only 3 teams below us have managed to win one (and one of those games was Millwall beating Birmingham) We aren’t going down if not simply because there’s too many teams below us who can’t buy a win either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have said if every team started level I’d have no confidence in him at all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
