Hopefully we can sustain our trajectory over the coming years. Also it should be recognised that we have won quite a few trophies since the start of the PL era. Some of the clubs above us in the all time PL table have won none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus Fox Posted 5 August 2022 Share Posted 5 August 2022 17 hours ago, Captain... said: No punters think 16-1 is good odds and worth a speculative bet. You can guarantee there is a lot more money placed on Forest, Bournemouth, Fulham etc. It is going to be mainly people chucking £2-£10 on a punt. We also have a tough start so there's a good chance we'll be bottom half after 5 games odds will shorten so chance for a quick cash out. Absolutely this, at the start of every season I put a tenner on the winner of the Championship, League One, League Two and the National League. I always look down the list and pick teams that are between 9 and 15/1 - the pay out is huge if it comes in - it never has, though I did get three out of four one year. It’s a bit of fun, and I don’t really do any research, just someone who is a good price. It would be easy to pick the favourites, but now I’ve got a team to follow in each of the divisions for the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who have you gone for this season? I used to include the PL but realistically, it’s down to two teams at really short odds and it put me off a bit. This year I’ve gone Middlesbrough, Portsmouth, Mansfield and Notts County. None are favourites, but all have an outside chance I think! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just done mine, Had to go with Man City and Wrexham - The only other realistic competition in the Premier League is still Liverpool, and Wrexham are so far ahead of everyone else in the National League that it seemed silly to bet against them, Then i've gone with Middlesborough, Derby (Felt dirty doing that) and Salford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like that to be his goal before he hangs up the boots - knocking Owen off would be hilarious, but realistically he's going to end up getting pipped by Salah (120 goals, 30 years old) before the latter is finished. Get into the top 8 and he's pretty much safe in the history books for decades. I was worried that Lukaku was gonna do the same, but then memes happened.

Forest have came up and spent about a £100m as a newly promoted team, whilst we’ve spent the square root of **** all. Then two of our better players are injured as well, it’s to be expected.
