This one should update as the odds change:
We're favourites again!!!!!!!!11111!!!!!! :icon_bigg
Should be some valuable [insert other favourite] v Leicester season bets to be had. Wedging on somebody like Wolves finishing above us.
I am sorry, but I do not get it: you chaps have virtually cast me as a troll for saying that I do not think that Nigel Pearson will get us to the Premier League; now that the betting seems to support your views, that is wrong too! :icon_bigg
The odds reflect money placed. We don't know the volume of money laid so it's difficult to predict the volatility of the odds pre-season. People will have put money on Leicester for various reasons; these are unlikely to include their admiration of the glorious football we played last season. I guess that punters take a view about which clubs are likely to be spending the most money. With Bolton, Blackburn & Wolves it looks like that their better players want out and it may well be that their owners are looking to reduce risks by being tight on the purse. With Leicester it seems that the owners are committed to continue defying gravity and will continue to invest. The Old Fox still is going on about NP and harks back to dear old Sven. Can he just remind me which club has snapped up Sven's services to guide them to the top of shop?
I imagine Sven is still being paid hansomely by your good selves so has no need to rush into another post.
5 teams in this division next season will be getting £16m parachute payments. that will be a lot more than we'll spend and i bet we'll still be known as big spending Leicester
