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.'"
I think another reason why we are those odds, would be having Applegarth as coach, i reckon with the exact same squad, but say with Kristian Wolff in charge, we'd be about 25/1 probably. They would take into account he's a complete novice at that level, with even less experience around the first team than Poching.
