Whilst the bookies put out initial odds it's the punters that decide them by the money they bet. It's a misconception that bookies have a view on whether a team will win, draw or lose - they simply gauge what the punters think in order to make a market where they are guaranteed a win whatever the result. The comparison with Leicester is interesting but there's one much closer to home. When the Cobblers were on their winning run in the promotion year you could always get way better odds than the more fancied teams such as Oxford and the like. Punters assumed the bubble would burst much as they did with Leicester and there must have been quite a few Cobblers fans than won silly money over that time. I think people can be lazy when looking at lower league teams and simply go for the names. For example Portsmouth were always skinny odds no matter how badly they were doing.
So in that last instance, what you're saying is the average lower league punter remains a fool?! Yes I did understand that bookies react to patterns and adjust the odds so as to weight the outcome in their favour as the market develops, but those initial odds set by them will have an effect on a gamblers psyche won't they, in a kind of confirmatory way, positively or otherwise? The relationship between bookies and punters, and particularly types of punter, must be a seriously complex field of study. In the meantime, DC saddle me up please squire.

I have said as long as this thread keeps it's sometimes tenious link with the actual football is should remain open.
I can't think of anything that serves as a better warning about some peoples tendancy to bicker and point score like kids than this thread.

So if we start talking about other things you'll lock it? How about this weather? It's crazy. So sick of the cold now

I have recently noted that with increased cocaine use, the urge to urinate increases, even when I don’t pass anything.
Has anyone else had experience of this, and do they have any tips on how to negate this whilst maintaining a frankly very high cocaine consumption?

Maybe it's just linked to the cold weather, I've heard this can play havoc with a bladder.

Would personally recommend going to see a doctor immediately
But it probably is just the cold. It has indeed been very cold. Fair bit of snow up my way as well, very wintry.

Discuss. Can I assume you are doing fajitas for tea, the quality of the peppers don't look the best, Lidl ?

The previous symptoms described by some posters could be attributed to nerves or stress no doubt brought on by the recent poor performance against Rochdale. The shock of the result would have been compounded by the lowly league position of the opposition. This fixture should have resulted in an easier game that we were guaranteed to win, as highlighted by the author of the thread. Perhaps the thread should be renamed Stats, easier games to come? I nearly pissed myself!

The peppers shown by the previous posters can indeed be an important part of sports nutrition that can also aliviate stress. Could be a vital addition to the squad and supporters diet in the upcoming easy fixture against Wimbledon? https://www.blackmores.com.au/energy/9-nutrients-for-sports-nutritionOn reflection perhaps the thread should be renamed Stats, easier games to come. I nearly pissed myself so am eating more capsicums!

I tell you something for nothing - I’d love the chance to clamber onto that Elise Christie. Can you imagine the pushback you’d get from her. Woof.
Feel free to add any Winter Olympics observations here.
