I am a Banana 0 Posted August 15, 2009 NORWICH CITY FOOTBALL CLUB without our club name, we would not be one of the favourites to go back up, if Walsall had our squad, would they be favourites for promotion?? NOwe are just a NAME and have not got the quality!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCFC_Shaun 0 Posted August 15, 2009 I''m beggining to agree. Charlton are now after Simeon Jackson. God I wish we would go for a player like him ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G 0 Posted August 15, 2009 True but i think we do have the quality. I didn''t think we were good enough before we had Holt and we were one of the favourites then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Houston Canary 0 Posted August 15, 2009 Being a favorite only means the bookies expect a lot of money bet on us. It does not mean we are actually better than anyone. Because we ARE Norwich City F.C., that gives us a lot of "oomph" in Division 3 with the gambling public. 3 years ago, we were also favorites to bounce back up to the Prem. We never came close, but the bookies made plenty of money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, the lines they come up with are based solely on where they think the money will be bet, not on who they think will win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
