Quote: bellycouldtackle "So Sky Bet have us at 100/1 to win the league, least favourites, Hull KR and Leigh are closest `` Least Favourites `` to us at 33/1. So the bookies have us a long way adrift as the worst squad in the League and I suppose on paper its hard to put up a convincing argument against that. Of course attitude, desire, luck with injuries, team spirit etc can upset the odds.
I wonder why our odds are so ungenerous, 100/1 is not going to encourage anyone to place a sentimental bet, why not make it 1,000,000/1.'"
You would never get those odds you are quoting, because even for massive bookies, paying out £1,000,000 for a £1 stake would be pretty catastrophic, and just downright bad mathematics!! I'm with William Hill and they have us at 100/1 as well. It is rare for us to be the complete outsiders, and Leigh are massively underpriced IMO, but they must be quite impressed by their recruitment, but time will tell i suppose.......
