How is that a good price? I will be surprised if we make the playoffs.

Great odds, just put 100 quid on it early before the odds shorten. With the team ole is putting together we could win the league by a canter.

It's obvious with Ole in charge we will have inconsistant results. Even if we looked to be one of the favourites, putting £100 on for us to win the league is staggering. Injuries, suspensions, cup runs and fixture conjestions will bring many twists and turns throughout the season. Some people have more money than sense. Like I said, I will be surprised if we manage to make the playoffs under Ole, nevermind win the league. That isn't a lack of faith, it's being realistic after seeing the way we fell apart under Ole with no organisation, structure and character in our team.

At what point were things going good under mackay? We were falling apart under mackay, 1 place off going back into the relegation places, with our toughest fixtures to come, the whole team was a mess there was only one place we were heading and that was the championship.

Why are you bringing Malky into it? We beat West Brom under Malky and were doing enough to stay above the relegation zone before Tan really did the damage to mess things up. You just have to look at Malky's home record and the fixtures we had left at home during the second half of the season to know Malky would have kept us up. Under Ole we lost our organisation and battling qualities and went backwards drastically. Ole has brought in some nice, talented footballers, but we will always be a disorganised soft touch with Ole in charge.

I'm just pointing out we were falling apart anyway, the fact Ole was in charge did not make a difference as the team was shit and we were heading one way. We pulled off some shock wins under ole as well such as Southampton away, Newcastle away in the cup teams we had not beat for like 70 yrs away. The point is the team assembled by malky was junk last season, with the signings Ole has made already and the signings to come, as well as getting rid of the junk players such as velikonja, Maynard, jones, Taylor, gunnarsson, Kim, lappin, Connolly, smith and a couple more, next season looks very bright which is he reason I have stuck 100 sheets on promotion as I think its a good bet.

No point betting until we know the make up of every squad. Wigan should be favourites as they did well last season and Europa league cost them in the end. If a few big players leave then they may struggle. Best time to bet is on eve of season or even 2 or 3 games in.
