Tips for Tikay

[Chompy]

6/4 Farah over 600m is one of the worst ever bits of pricing imo. Can't see it on the Ladbrokes site though? They removed it?

Yup, been removed now it seems.

You are proud of me for getting on, right?

If this race does go ahead can't u imagine them jogging round together then Bolt sprinting it? I've always thought Bolt would be the best 400m runner of all time if he could be bothered, bit like u some midfielders, Gerrard, Keane, who would probably have been the best right backs ever if they played there more, but they were good enough at the more glamourous/enjoyable/influential position to go there

I started a thread a while back about Bolt racing Rudisha over 400m.  At the moment, Rudisha has the faster time.  But with training Bolt would beat him easily.  Rudisha would batter him over 600m though.

Someone emailed this suggestion into Sky Sports News, who then proceeded to put up some utterly useless stats for Bolt v Farah.

Insane clickery skills! You missed a zero off the bet amount though.

Is it me?

Isn't it enough to have people who are brilliant in their own disciplines? Why do we need to have them compete against each other in an event neither will be particularly good at?

And lol at Farah in the same breath as Bolt. He's not threatened a world record. Bekele will not be sweating.

Nice for charity and for Nike but you might as well have them on Superstars throwing a javelin.

Compare and contrast Mayweather and Manny or, to go to today's theme, Taylor and Barney.

7 horses declared in the Sussex Stakes. Declaration of War is 9/2.

25s bar the 3!

more importantly, now quarter first 2

Don't worry about how quiet the thread has been, Tikay, Paddy Power are doing money back if 2nd at Goodwood, will presumably be on Hills mobile too.  Bet365 offering to match anyone and doing the free bet if 4/1+.  Tighty was just saying this morning how he was salivating at the prospect.

In good news for Tighty, I am on my way to Scotland for a few days on Thursday and flight, hills, monsters and stuff might prevent me swamping him with bets for the rest of the week.    

Edit.  BetVictor money back if 2nd to the favourite at Goodwood too!  Will probably duck it, but guess if they are best priced on anything.

i was only putting it up for a talking point

I know you were. Heck, if we can make money from it, we should discuss it.

Eh Chompy?

Hate to be an F in the O but why exactly should mo be such a certainty over any distance Bolt trains over?

I'm assuming you'd all make Bolt clear jolly over 400m?

Bolt's best time (as an 18yo junior) over 400m is 4 second's ahead of Farah's, if i read correctly

I assume the extra 200 metres will see Farah glide through as Bolt ties up as the sprinter muscles give up?


Anyway, horsey was only discussing it ;-)

I'd definitely like to back Bolt at 7/2 over 600m

The likelihood of them crossing the line arms interlinked seems very high to me. 7/2 dead heat rules apply.

Yum yum

I was listening to a discussion on the radio about this earlier today between a couple of athletes who both agreed that 600 is the nut fair distance to run over as shorter obv favours Bolt and any longer Farah and over this distance if Bolt shot off early then Farah wont be able to keep up with him but would be eating into the ground later on in the last 100 metres although they also said Farah has been doing a lot of speed work recently hence beating the 1500 record

[The Camel]

Did anyone offer odds for Bolt v Rudisha over 400?

If y'all make Mo a certainty over 600, Rudisha must be past the post at 400.
