First game odds

Blue Square have already priced up the first weekends premier games and have made us a dismissive 16/1 to win and 11/2 to get a draw at City. I know they are Champions but that's a ruddy insult! No team is unbeatable as last season showed.

What do you think is it insulting or just realistic?

 

Pretty realistic, let's be fair!

 

Realistic but also makes it worth a small punt.

 

i would probably say the odds should be lower, didnt man city only drop 2 points last year at home?

 

Considering we started the season so well last year due to NA fitness program and the fatigue of the city players from the euros I reckon it may be worth a few quid

 

Especially if we catch them by surprise....and kick off at 2.00

 

Seeing as the game will probably be the early kickoff, they're probably very fair odds if we kick off at 2

 

Ladbrokes got 11/1 saints win and 5/1 draw so worth a punt, also 3500/1 for saints title winners lol

 

The draw might be good value, but Swansea did go there last season and came away with tails between legs after a 4-0 tonking.

 

Can get odds of just over 18/1 on betfair, with the draw being 6/1

 

I'd say that's about fair. Blackpool were 25/1 to beat Chelsea a couple of years ago (around September time), the biggest ever odds for a PL team to win a game. (That record may have been surpassed since). And whilst I think we're better than that Blackpool team, I think City are probably better than that Chelsea team.

 

Pretty sure Blackburn were 33/1 to beat Utd at Old Trafford last season, I think they did aswell?

 

They were about 16/1 also. Definatly not 33/1. And yes they did win 3-2
