Looking at this it seems we all had a hell of a lot of faith in our fantastic Blades team & our management. Did any of us actually think we would be relegated?? If you did hold your hands up,no offence intended.
 
Put this on a few games into season..

Laid us to go down at odds on before season started but I've hedged that out so win whatever buy.nowhere near as much as if I'd let it run. Also small bet at 10/1 to finish top 10
 
Towards the end of the 05/06 season, when we were still listed on the AIM market I bought a load of shares in the hope that I'd make a few quid if we got promoted. I laid it off by having a bet that we wouldn't. Me and my stockbroker pal had worked out that there was no way it could lose - sadly I don't recall the move in the share price nor the odds I got for, but I think I put £500 on it, he had double that, and I think my brother had a go too. It all worked out perfectly and champagne was drunk.
 
As of today we’re 50/1 to win the FA Cup. Given how well we’ve started, that’s pretty decent value.

Shook hands with a Huddersfield Town friend of mine, United to finish top ten. The prize, a fully paid up night out. Get yer wallet out Steve, cocaine and hookers ahoy 😆😜
 
Right then, show me your Cash Outs. I bet some of you have got some silly money pending? I only backed us for the title at 2500-1.
 



Yep.. put 40 quid on united today. United do not help my liver at all
 
The Blades at +54 on the handicap to win the league must be on now...! Plus a bet to finish top ten also looking good!

Put the same on with Sky at +49 handicap, looking at about £110 from the spare six quid in my account. Gave up on it before the break with how relentless L’pool have been and suddenly it looks like it’s coming in 🙌

Do you know where you can see a current handicap table? I know will differ from each bookie but will be close ish....cannot think anybody is ahead of the blades as Liverpool were +4 from memory

Not come across anything like it mate, wouldn’t mind seeing what places were offering though. We were the biggest handicap with sky from what I remember.
 
By my reckoning we have now won the Bet365 Premier League Handicap. Burnley made a late charge but after their draw and Liverpool’s loss we are safe....Champions!
 
Very rarely bet these days and even more so on the Blades. The only stand out bet which was United related was 03/04 season against Macclesfield Town, United to win and Jack Lester to score first which came in.
 
Biggest one was about £350 on us not to get promoted against HUddersfield in the PO final. Didnt soften the journey back atall but atleast it was a free season ticket for the season after.
 
Boxing Day 2007 , a monkey on Neil Warnock's Palace at 13/5 to beat us. There was only gonna be one result that day.

Biggest bet of my life, and although a good earner I felt dirty ( not in a good way) afterwards.
 
Our first season with Wilder I knew we would get promoted, after watching a interview he did about a closed stand at Northampton. Before the season even started I put a £10 on us winning league one as champions, Portsmouth as league two champions, Newcastle as championship champions, Bayern as Bundesliga champions, Real Madrid as La Liga champions and Also Real Madrid as Champions league winners

My final team in this bet was Man city to win the Prem, they had just got pep, he would easily win the league. They didn't and Pep cost me £25k, the season after they scored over 100 goals and got the most points any prem side has ever had. RIP.

Is that for certain Sir? I have the lads at plus 54 with Paddy Power but not sure if that has come in yet. Who are our close challengers, only Burnley?
