Always interesting to have a bet on the handicap betting pre season,bit of fun,who do you fancy?
Sheffield Utd are +49 so might need about 50 points to win next year,tough ask.
Here’s the list with last years table

Never liked this bet, the problem for me is that not only are you trying to predict our final total in relation to the likely Champions, you've also got to take into account everyone else as well. For example, 8 or 9 points behind the likes of Palace, Watford.

I notice my tip for the season of us finishing ahead of Brighton is now 6/4 from 15/8.

It's basically a handicap bet for the whole division. Man Citeh start from scratch so 0 points, Liverpool start on 5 right down to us on 49. Then it's a bet on who will win the title given their 'handicapped' points total.

If there was only us and Citeh for example, and say they get 98 points, if we got 50 then for the purposes of this bet we would win given our 49 point start.

If we can avoid defeat at the Etihad and draw or beat them at home, we should do it.


.....right, I'm just off to see my bank manager to sign over power of attorney to my son.
