Odds for next season

[Johnnyblade]

Now the playoffs have finished yesterday the odds for next season are out.
Looking at all the major bookmakers they all have us down to be bottom.
I think if we can get some decent signings in the transfer window, play our organised chaos attacking style,we can surprise a few teams next year.
12-1 to be top half........I’m in

 

[SUFC Guy]

2500-1

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

Bookies odds mean nothing.

 

[Dkc]

Bookies always make money from fans of promoted teams who expect them to continue their winning streak in the PL. Saying that, 12/1 to finish top half looks a decent bet to me.

 

[norfolkblade88]

I’d snap your hand off for 17th at this stage. 1000%.

 

[Jim Chimmerney]

I'm waiting for the match bets to come out, us to finish above Brighton is the one for me

 

[Boxer Blade]

I've never been a gambling man and I'm still not.

 

[Sharrow Snuff Mill]

12/1 !!!!!!! Should be more like 100/1.

 

[GrayBlade]

I've never been a gambling man and I'm still not.

You bet!

 

[Sheff de party]

I've never been a gambling man and I'm still not.

.... but I’ll definitely make sure I point this out on any gambling threads!

 

[SW12 to S12 to S18]

Not a gambling man myself, I don’t even know how to put a bet on, but I would be interested to know what our odds on getting promotion were this time last year.

and Burnley and Bournemouth.. if Benitez leaves, and Newcastle

About 25-1 for "promotion"

 

[SwissBlade]

2500/1 definitely worth sticking a grand down

 

[BushBlade]

Never Say Die.

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

About 25-1 for "promotion"

It was 25/1 for us winning the league.

Promotion was about 8s.

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

2500/1 definitely worth sticking a grand down

Xfer me a grand and i'll give you 5000-1.

 

[AdamSufc1997]

Probably correct at this point. The odds will change when we sign new players

 

[moDtheGod]

I'd agree. I'd also be interested to look at us vs Bournemouth.

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Probably correct at this point. The odds will change when we attract a few bets

Changed that for you

 

[Booker4]

Villa are now the favourites to stay up out of the three promoted sides because of their likely higher budget than us and Norwich and the quality of McGinn and Grealish. But, they have some average players in that team too that need upgrading and will they get Abraham back because Chelesa might give him a go. Not so sure he'd score many in the Prem anyway.

As for us, I think even if we didn't sign one player this summer I reckon we'll get 25-30 points. That wouldn't be enough but add in the players we will sign and I think we can do it, the basis is already there and we've got more team spirt and will to win that Villa and Norwich put together!

 

[BLADES1988]

It was 25/1 for us winning the league.

Promotion was about 8s.

I stand corrected.

 

[SW12 to S12 to S18]

I stand corrected.

Thank you both.

 

[PokerBlade]

Not one of those bets look good to me.

 

[Seanshoreham]

OK we are the underdogs at 4/6 with Bet365 - just gives Chris and the boys the opportunity to prove the b@stards wrong

Wouldn't it make more sense to wait until squads have started to be assembled?

 

[CarlMcBlade]

2500/1 is a compliment. Leicester were 5000/1 when they won the league.

And theyll likely lose mongs and abraham
