I always have a little flutter on how we will get on each season but this year, I have gone for something a little different in the form of the handicap betting.

All teams are priced at 18/1 and are awarded additional points based on the likelyhood of promotion so as you can see under, Bolton are the scratch team with Leicester 2nd, etc - City are awarded +26.

I know there are some doubters but I fully expect us to achieve a minimum of at least 60 points this season and I am hoping, a good few more on top which if it happens, will put us on 90+ points. This must put us in with a good shout BUT, don't forget that you must add all of the points to ALL of the teams in the final table (not just City). I have had a few pence on this...

Also, Pitters is 66/1 to end up as Championship top scorer, a little generous bearing in mind his scoring ratio and if he is really hungry for it this year, a decent dark horse. I've had a little dabble to return 4 figures so please DM, don't sell Brett..!!!

Outright

Bolton (0)
Leicester (+1)
Wolves (+2)
Leeds (+4)
Blackburn (+5)
Nottingham Forest (+6)
Cardiff (+6)
Brighton (+8)
Birmingham (+9)
Blackpool (+9)
Middlesbrough (+11)
Sheff Wed (+14)
Burnley (+16)
Charlton (+16)
Hull (+16)
Ipswich (+16)
Watford (+16)
Huddersfield (+18)
Derby (+22)
Millwall (+24)
Bristol City (+26)
Crystal Palace (+25)
Peterborough (+28)
Barnsley (+30)
 
Swindon odds cut to 5/1 - they will walk League One (assuming Di Canio doesn't go to West Ham).

Meanwhile, just picked up a niffy 66/1 on Sam Baldock finishing top scorer - get in quick cos it won't be there long (had to ask for the price)
 
I have a bet on Brett actually starting another game this season.
The odds were not all that high to be honest
 
Just emailed paddy power for the same bet odds.

Just had a sneaky £10 e/w on city as well @ 50/1. Don't usually bet on City, but?
 
not had a bet this season on present points per game would make 92 at the end, think 60 would be dissapointing though.

the top 6 have all played 2 home, leeds and florest 1 home the bottom 11 teams have played 2 away 2 strongest teams this weekend are likely to be Florest and Leeds so without a win city will likely be at best 6th........

8-10 is a goodnumber of games to get a idea of the outcome of how teams are fairing after our Leics game thats when we should see just how good or bad we are...........16pts minimum would equate to a finish between 70 -78 points....I would be happy with that, up into the prem not happy if we did from a point of veiw of are we ready...however lets just do it and see if we can stay there, Man utd Liverpool Arsenal and Chelsea at AG BRING IT ON BEFORE I POP ME CLOGS
 
My email came back from Paddy power this morning after 2 days to get here.

Their brokers are now offering 33-1 on Baldock. that is getting very close to the fancied strikers odds..

Gonna take that though..
 
Yeap Banksy, Hill's now down to 33/1 as well - luckily, I got £30 on at 66/1

As for Pitters, my comment was written what now seems like eons ago before our 2 additions up front so it does like my only chance is if he moves on in which case, its game on...

Incidentally, got a few quid e/w on Pavel Pogrevniak for top scorer (1/4 top 4) at 66/1 for Reading as a bit of a dark horse...
