footie bet

Best not as we don't know each other   But I'd make a sportsmans bet that the mid price will be 67+   Anything in the middle and we'll call it a draw.

Where would you pitch Leicester points Redarmi?  And would you buy them at the start or wait for the team to gel with all the new signings.  (I am keen to have them onside this year - I really like their signings for this league).  I think they'll be 73-75 and I'd buy probably up to 77.

Fair enough re:bet.  Would imagine you will be able to buy below 77 but tough to say really.  In the same way as I can only see Blues getting sellers i would mark up Leicester by a couple of ticks because I can only really see buyers.

[DungBeetle]

yeah - they might flick it up to 77-79 along with West Ham, because they are unlikely to get many people selling either of these teams.

I've stuck my other thoughts on another thread - see what you think.

No chance. Remember points deductions for liquidation are not included in these markets.

I suspect they will be 68-70 or something like that, with West Ham/Leicester being in the mid 70s.

Pretty close - Brummies are 67-69

Redarmi - I win our sportsman's bet

Yeah good call but I will claim a moral victory on opening day when it closes 8 points lower ;-)
