Title: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: TightEnd on February 15, 2009, 06:45:59 PM Blackburn or Coventry v Chelsea
Swansea or Fulham v Man Utd Cardiff or Arsenal or Burnley v Sheffield United or Hull Everton v West Ham or Middlesbrough Man Utd 15/8 Chelsea 10/3 Arsenal 4 Everton 9/2 Fulham 22 West Ham 25 Blackburn 28 Hull 33 Middlesbrough 33 Swansea 80 Sheff Utd 80 Burnley 100 Coventry 80 Cardiff 150 e/w 1/2 odds for the final I know we can all look at Man U v Chelsea in the final, but where's the value outside that given this draw? Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: Colchester Kev on February 15, 2009, 06:48:57 PM Boro are shit, but 33/1 with that draw is a bit of valloooooooooo imo.
Lay it off obv, IF they get through next round.. Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: bolt pp on February 15, 2009, 06:49:26 PM Arsenal @ 4/1 look value though if i was betting for my life how can you oppose utd.
Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: TightEnd on February 15, 2009, 06:50:26 PM I was thinking West Ham at 25s but can't understand why they are shorter than Boro as they've had the home tie already
then again Boro at home is v winnable Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: TightEnd on February 15, 2009, 06:51:46 PM Arsenal @ 4/1 look value though if i was betting for my life how can you oppose utd. of course Man U worthy favourties, this is for a punt at a price. Camel-lite if you will. Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: Graham C on February 15, 2009, 06:52:24 PM West Ham or Boro imo. Decent odds and both have a chance against Everton, well more of a chance than against Man U, Chelsea or Arsenal.
Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: AndrewT on February 15, 2009, 06:53:54 PM I notice that the BBC page on the draw seem to have already knocked out Burnley.
Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: The Camel on February 15, 2009, 06:54:36 PM 15/8 Utd looks very fair to me.

Camel-lite if you will. lol 4/1 is a price!! sorry for not giving you guaranteed 33/1 winners! ::) Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: TheChipPrince on February 15, 2009, 06:55:28 PM Fulham. The winners will have to beat UTD at some point, what better stage than at home when UTD have bigger, more importnat games mid-march ish...
If I had to have a bet... Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value?

Post by: Nem on February 15, 2009, 07:01:02 PM I went to the west ham game yesterday and west ham were poor, and without Carlton Cole they also looked toothless up front.
Arsenal 4/1 ldo. Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: gatso on February 15, 2009, 08:51:09 PM no stand out lower league value out there this year.
I'm with kev, best bet for value is boro. most boring team in the draw but well capable of grinding out a cup result Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: Amatay on February 15, 2009, 09:15:31 PM The hammers never win at Everton FACT. We have to beat boro away first anyways. Then prob Chelski is the semi's and united in the final. gogogo

I agree, although, im on Swansea instead of Fulham. Since the draw Swansea have gone out to 150.0, ive placed £5 up @ 200.0, waiting to be matched (hopefully!) Man Utd will never take this tourney seriously again, get on now! ......Fulham will clearly pump Swansea in the replay now! EDIT: £3 Matched @ 200.0, still £2 remaining. Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: Scottish Dave on February 16, 2009, 01:03:37 PM just to update, the prices on BF at far better:
Man Utd - 2/1 Chelsea - 7/2 Arsenal - 5/1 Everton - 13/2 west ham - 26/1 fulham - 33/1 Blackburn - 48/1 Hull - 48/1 Middlesbro - 50/1 Swansea - 150/1 Sheff Utd - 150/1 Brunley - 130/1 Coventry - 180/1 Cardiff - 210/1 Title: Re: FA Cup: who is the value? Post by: kukushkin88 on February 16, 2009, 01:10:00 PM I think you've finally identified some value Dave, the Swans should never be that big after the way they've embarrassed Portsmouth(a), Fulham, Reading and Burnley(a) in recent weeks. About 60-1 would better reflect their chance imo.
