F Fluffsta Well-Known Member Jul 14, 2012 #1 For promotion this season we have had our odds generally cut from 4/1 to 3/1 over the last few days because we have signed a few players. We are 4th favourites to win the League outright. The betting right now has 19 teams in the league with longer odds than Cov to face the drop. Cov finish in the top 6? That will get you 101/100 right now (bookmakers fully expect a top 6 finish AT LEAST) PUSB! http://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/league-1/winner/best-odds Last edited: Jul 14, 2012

Even Sheffield United aren't that short. Very very strange. :thinking about:

Grendel Well-Known Member Jul 14, 2012 #7 The concern I still have is goals. The team doesn't look collectively capable of scoring more than 50 or so in a season. We need forwards still.
