I wouldn't read too much into odds tbh


how many favourites have their been now? 6? 
 

it’s almost like they’re cycling them round to keep bets coming in.

Aye. For the hundredth fucking time: this market rounds to about 200%. Anything above 100% is house/bookie advantage (or "theoretical" profit margin) so 200% is pure pisstaking. A fucking roulette table only rounds to 107% and big horse races usually spike at about 135%.

Put ÂŁ100 on the most random cunt you can think of, his odds will drop. They know nowt

 

In a standard market that had pre-declared runners and a designated "off" time then maybe. In this market you probably just take the book up to 201%.

 

But aye they know fuck all and aren't invested in the outcome of any market beyond balancing their books and securing their overround.

He's 7/1 at skybet. Even at hills where they quote evens he's 4/1. 

 

You've worded that weirdly but I think you've got it. Even if he was "Evens" that only makes up a quarter of a book that counts to 200%.

I haven't worded it weirdly. The article says he's evens at Hills when he's 4/1 at Hills. A load of made up bullshit. He's still behind Fonseca and Martinez in the betting

Two headlines in The Times today:

 

Nuno on the brink of sack at Tottenham

 

Bruce and Ashley have gone so who is to blame now for expensive mess?

 

Those are the actual fucking headlines, written without a hint of irony. 

 

 

Unfortunately the media is full of thick as pig shit wankers who are only interested in themselves. 

 

The bbc sport have Nuno on the brink stuff. Yet Newcastle fans were disrespectful because we wanted Bruce out. How long has Nuno been at Spurs?

Hmm, I wonder if it’s maybe Bruce and Ashley?

Nuno's gone. So we're now in competition with Spurs for a new manager. 

 

The treatment of Nuno as well as Daniel Levy in general won't make their next appointment straightforward. If we weren't where we are on the table you'd say in many respects managing here would be a more enticing prospect.
