Canarygeorge 0 Posted September 28, 2011 http://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/premier-league/manchester-united-v-norwich/winnerBest priced @ 20/1 with Stan James bookies at the moment.Odds vary between 12/1 & 20/1.Actually, looking at that, we seem to be attracting more bets (in blue) than Man U at the moment.Might be worth a pound or two, at 20/1.

The Great Drinkell 50 Posted September 28, 2011 Having watched United get the run around by Basle last night - if sir Alex plays the same team I would fancy our chances but just can''t see him taking chances with us.Mind you a few quid on an away win with a couple of quid as a saver on the draw might be interesting. - After all both of us have drawn with Stoke who got hammered by Sunderland who in turn got beat by us ... current form suggests this is a good bet [8-)][*-)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Butterbean_Canary 0 Posted September 29, 2011 I saw this on Sky the other night and thought it may be worth a punt,6/1 for the draw sounds like its got a £10 bet written all over it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canarygeorge 0 Posted September 29, 2011 That''s why i posted the Oddschecker Link, Butterbean, to save people from taking 6/1, when they can get 15/2, although the odds can fluctuate, up and down.At the moment, Stan James are best at 20/1 a win, 15/2 a draw.Check the Link below http://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/premier-league/manchester-united-v-norwich/winner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,506 Posted September 29, 2011 Norwich or the draw is 9/2 on Stan James Butterbean. I did wonder about a small bet on that because I''d be gutted if I bet the draw and we actually managed the upset!! Realistically these big prices are available for a reason. Man U home defeats against newly promoted teams are as rare as hens teeth!! But we can dream and sometimes he who dreams wins[;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canarygeorge 0 Posted September 29, 2011 No bookies are as low as 9/2 the draw Nutty! Check the Oddschecker ffs. 15/2 is best odds for the draw, at Stan James.If someone could do an automatic Link, it would be appreciated.http://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/premier-league/manchester-united-v-norwich/winner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UEA Canary 0 Posted September 29, 2011 i think it''s def worth a cheeky fiver, at those odds why not? We may be miles apart in terms of size and stature but we''re in the same league and not unbeatable. The way I see it is, having gone 40 odd games unbeaten at home, that run has to end sooner or later and I think it''s more likely to be against a weaker side where they let their guard down thinking all they have to do is turn up and theyll get the points. I''m off to place my bet and hope a few of you do to, as Norwich fans it''s our job to be believe we can win, however slim the chances are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul moy 235 Posted September 29, 2011 I''ve just taken 16/1 on Ladbrokes..... that''ll do me !! [:D] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Chops 7 Posted September 29, 2011 No chance. Man U will have a rocket up their arses, plus it''s Old Trafford where you play at least 12 men (sometimes all 14). We''ll lose 3 or 4-0, much as I hate to say it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drazen Muzinic 1,444 Posted September 29, 2011 Not on this earth after now seeing who the ref is! Whiskeynose will be too intimidating for him. What odds on a pen to United? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
. 0 Posted September 29, 2011 City have quite a good record when it comes to upsetting Man Utd... plus the occasional hammering of course.Not a betting man myself but I wouldn''t be surprised if we upset the odds on the day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I''m not a betting man, but surely you would get £4.50 back for your £1 if we win or draw at 9/2, rather than either £6 or £20 back for your £1. That would surely make it more sensible to stick £1 on both win and draw, rather than £2 on win or draw?Personally I wouldn''t bet on either win or draw, because I would consider it easy money for the bookies, I prefer bets that are dead certs!

On that basis, I see the logic in the 9/2 odds. (£5.50 returned on £1)Still, if you bet with your heart and not your head, you''ll lose it all. I hope someone reposts this in bold and calls me a c*nt in the process when we''ve got a point or more at 5pm on Saturday, but we won''t get anything from Old Trafford.

Canarygeorge 0 Posted September 29, 2011 http://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/premier-league/manchester-united-v-norwich/winnerIf you look at the Link above, you will see that Stan James offer the best odds for a win for us at 20/1. William Hill offer the worst odds for a win for us at 11/1.Stan James also offer the best odds for a draw at 15/2Other bookies offer as low as 11/2.I don''t think we''ll win or draw either, personally, but if you must have a bet, always have a look on Oddschecker, to find your best odds.

spencer 1970 207 Posted September 29, 2011 I put a few looooong odds bets on - if we win 1-2 I stand to win £310 on 4 bets totalling a £10''er. prob thrown it in the bin but worth a long shot! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jed exodous 0 Posted September 29, 2011 I think its highly unlikely we''ll get a result, but i''m gonna have a couple of correct score bets in our favour...1-0 - 50/12-0 -90/1 (seems familiar)2-1 -45/13-1 -90/13-2 - 70/110-0 500/1 Whatever the result, hopefully we can give a good account of ourselves.

Tim Allman 1 Posted September 29, 2011 If had a spare quid to bet I''d go for Elliott Bennett to score at any time. Probably more likely to see a return than City winning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canarygeorge 0 Posted September 29, 2011 4 bookies have Elliott Bennett at 9/1 to score at any time, Tim. Seems a sporting bet. Link below.http://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/premier-league/manchester-united-v-norwich/anytime-goalscorer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,506 Posted September 30, 2011 Well I checked on your link George and found out that Stan James price of 9/2 for Norwich to win or draw is in fact the best price available, ffs, lol![;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canarygeorge 0 Posted September 30, 2011 Ah ffs, i see what you mean now Nutty, lol. Sorry mate.So, £2 on Norwich to win or draw is a combination bet, paying £11 @ 9/2.Or you could have £1 for us to win @ 20/1 and £1 on us to draw @ 15/2, returning either £21 or £8.50 if either happened.
