At this point I''m going to put 100 quid on City to get promoted with Skybet at 5/2 and 20 on us to win the Championship at 12/1.

Anyone else up for it yet?

[/quote]5-2 FOR PROMOTION!!!!!!!!!Ridiculously stingey odds Bly. We must be 10-1 at the very least.But hey ho its your money. No wonder you never see a bookie on a bike.

if Blackpool can get promoted ...why not city.?

i am the first to admit ,i think the gap from premiership to championship is huge .

saying that a few of the teams in the first division would give many a championship team a run for their money .

bring in a few quality players and we have a strong team .

5/2 are awful odds....  I wouldn''t touch it as a punter for less than 4/1.

Because they haven''t got Ian Holloway as a manager. An interesting character - could do with a new tailor though!

Gambled on ultra-attacking football and deservedly got lucky.

The thing about Holloway is that he is capable of gambling a different way and getting away with it. Doubt if they''ll survive the prem more than one year though - although I''m sure we''d all love it if they did.

I''m glad we''ve got Lambert though. Apart from anyhing else he dresses well and drives both a Maserati and our football club!

Cannot see us making the top half , squad is mostly League 1 standard and not one signing or linked player shouts Championship class or ambition at you .Blackpool were very much the exception not the rule and most of the other top 6 teams had good squads that cost a bit , we still seem to want to do everything on the cheap  or free and it just wont work .

[/quote]Not sure why you''d want to take 12s when you can get 20/1 on betfair. That would be an extra £160 winnings.

Good job I haven''t laid the bets yet then!!!

I nearly did earlier but got diverted.

I see that skybet odds have now lengthened to 9/2 and 14/1 (well, according to oddschecker).

Guess I''ll wait until tomorrow.

Hmmm......
