    Seeing as the Title appears to be a done deal and the title odds thread has sunk without a trace, thought it might be time for this thread.

    Current best prices (excluding betfair) are:

    City: 1/66
    Arsenal 1/2
    Utd 1/2
    Saints 2/1
    Spurs 7/2
    Pool 11/2

    Value in backing Pool imo and laying City at 1/100 on Betfair given their poor form lately.

  3. TBF, those odds for spurs and us aren't too bad. I'd say the odds on Saints is probably fair although I'd have liked to have seen a 3-1 in there.

    Man Utd are a bit short but that'll be because they'll be getting a lot of money placed on them. I'd say evens would be realistic at the minute.

    True but given the form of Chelsea and City and the remaining fixtures for both, it's a brave man who would back against Chelsea!!

    For what it's worth:
    Chelsea: 1/7
    City: 7/1
    the rest 66/1

  5. I'd be surprised if they don't but Chelsea haven't won it yet. Man City won their first PL title after being just as far behind I believe. Can't recall if there were games-in-hand involved though :huh:

    Chelsea should have won it last year and with the addition of Costa and fabregas, they should be winning it this year too. It would be great if Mourinho had two big failures for his return to London :)

    You're 6.6 to lay on Betfair. Don't fancy tying my dosh up for 3 months, but that really is buying money. A mortal lock, as the old school turf accountants say.

    yeah betting on cheslea at this point is like printing money.

    1/7 is a 14% return so that beats the stock market over 3 months.....

    Those City odds are **** considering how poor they've been and they still have 4 sixpointers (3 away)

  11. What's the odds on the title now? I'm guessing Chelsea will be even shorter than 1-7 after beating Everton (winning a game they shouldn't have won is a sign of champions isn't it?)

    Yeah, although they are 1/50 on betfair from 1/100. the lay at 1/100 was great value imo.

    Although they may have turned the corner with that result at Stoke. they have a 10 day break now and Yaya and Bony to come in.

    1/50 is not marvelous. if i put on 100 i get back 2... 2% return on money is a bad investment. I could do better on the stock market.

    the 1/7 odds earlier on chavski was superb value.

    Yeah I'm sure the odds compilers at the lands top bookies hadn't factored that in, and have got it way wrong, and some one eyed flute, posting on the net from his Ma's spare room has nailed it <doh>

    That's why i said LAYING them at the 100/1 was good value!!

    No one in there right mind would back them at 1/50 on, let alone 1/100.

    City: 1/100
    Arsenal 2/7
    Utd 5/6
    Pool 2/1
    Saints 7/2
    Spurs 6/1

    Well happy with the 9/1 I got on Pool a few weeks ago :emoticon-0100-smile

  19. We're certainly the form team at the minute but can we maintain it for the remaining twelve games. Would mean we've had a fantastic remaining twenty-games <yikes>

    look the past is the past and irrelevant from here as its unchangeable. it gives confidence of whats occuring now but........ its 12 games. thats where it'll be won and lost and these odds show me the bookies feel arsenal and utd are favorites for the top 4.

    2/1 is actually pretty long for LFc compared to utds odds and i am sure the reason is the europa. I would bet that if LFc lose to besiktas on thrusday the odds for this on friday would prob go in to 5/6 as well.

    Its that tight
