A Absolutely right... and to add to this, I'd be very interested to see the stats for NPC starting odds vs actual results for the last few years. To my mind it's impossible to offer specific odds when at least 6 (if not more) teams seem capable (on paper at least) of mounting a genuine challenge for the title. As Ãber said, it's just a means to an end to stimulate punters to flash the cash. Daft really when we don't even know what the squads will be...
If Charlie Austin keeps banging them in, perhaps Burnley at 50/1 to win and 14/1 for promotion not a bad a long shot?
I agree with Uber. If teams really go for it on the day, they'll be open. If they shut up shop, then (hopefully) we'll pass the ball around well and find ways in. That all depends if we have a team who are up for it.
