    Haha! There are some real dumasses on here tonight. Do you really think the bookies would turn down money if there was no chance of O'Neill coming back? Where's the business sense in that?

    You completely missed the point. There is every chance he'll be coming back, which is why he began on good odds. What I am saying is that the odds are shrinking not because the chance of him coming back is increasing (please acknowledge once more that it's a very real and likely possibility), but because people are placing that many bets that if it does happen they are looking at a massive pay out.

    And you're from the Benard Manning school of wit and charm.

    It was implied, and not by you actually, that there was no chance O'Neill was coming back and that it was only betting from our fans that changed the odds. This in itself wouldn't change the odds. They do this when they suspect someone knows something they don't...or they themselves know something.

    and what gives them that hunch that someone knows something they don't? Large numbers of bets.

    Sigh. But, as I already said, if we had no chance of getting him, as was implied, then they wouldn't change the odds no matter what.

    It's a completely irrelevant and pointless thing to argue.

    This guy is always the same. He tries to wear you down with literate runarounds, which usual start from him getting the wrong end of the stick in the first place.

    You are completely and utterly wrong and have no clue about how betting works from the bookies side. If the bookies really did know who was going to get the job they would not even put him on the list in the running. Just put a load of other names on there so people back them and they win money risk free. The only reason O'Neil is shortening is because people are putting money on him, yes he may get the job, but the bookies have no clue at this time who will get it

    But my one and only point is, yet again, that we have every chance of getting O'Neill, and the bookies agree. I never said why the odds were shortening. I only said there are several reason why this might happen. You're right, if he was a certainty, they wouldn't be taking any bets at all.

    But I am happy to admit I'm no expert on bookies. Gambling is for the desperate.

    you didnt put an other. I want McClaren to take over because i just think he is the most amazing manager the world has ever seen and given the opportunity would get you guys winning the league within a month. He's the perfect fit
