I've got a £20 double on us to win both the FA Cup and go up via the POs. About 680/1 at the time, will get just under £14k if it happens.

I think it was just after the Leicester game I put it on.

Only £20 after the weekend, so money back as it stands.

Since I put it on, it's been hovering around £6-£8 cash out so jumped to £20 after Wolves and the QFs were completed.

We've got 5 league games before the Utd SF so I wonder what it might be then. If we're 6th or 7th after those 5 games then beat Utd and are to face Man City in the final, that would likely be the time to cash out.

Who knows?!

Imagine if you let it roll and we won the FA cup and reach the play off final. Your nerves would be shredded

If we get to the FA Cup Final and beat Man City, I think I'd let it run if we got to the PO Final.

I'm making massive assumptions but if we were to beat Utd, I suspect we'd get our backsides handed to us by the blue team from Manchester. That's where the majority of the odds are I reckon.

I’ve got £15 on us winning the FA Cup and going up via the play offs at 803/1. Could win just over £12k if it happens. Probably won’t though.

I agree , I think Utd are beatable and I think we'll beat them. Another play off final we go up but Man City. They'll kill us

Cov will be such high outsiders that the cash out won't go up now until we qualify for the final. It's a cracking bet, it's got absolutely no chance but if we somehow got tot he final AND cov were in the playoffs leading up to it. The cash out will be worth looking at.

if we won the cup the cash out would likely be 8 grand, would you bet the 8k to potentially win another 6? It’d impact on your enjoyment of the play off final.

What am I even talking about. We’re outsiders in the play off hunt and would likely have to beat Utd and City to win the cup! More chance of seeing Jesus in Binley Mega chippy

Yeah and I think that'd be the time to cash out.

Still gotta beat Utd first and keep up the pressure in the EFL!

If we won the cup and it was £8k, I'd take it.

I'd be £8k up and 'worst case scenario' that we go up via the POs and I miss out on additional £5-6k, I'm still buzzing as a Cov fan and I know it'll be great for my business next season with Cov being in the Prem.

If we won the cup we'd already be in the playoffs final by that stage, so would be quite significant.

They are really good odds in all honesty. Surprised they are that long. Is that to win in 90 or progress in the tie?

Thought those odds were too good to be true! Although if Chelsea beat City in the semi you are laughing with those odds on United.
