    [Albion] Damned whatever we did apparently.....

    We are not now and never have been "relegation favourites". We have been odds-on for relegation once, for a few days, since being promoted - after losing our first two games last season. We are not even in the bottom three in the betting, and weren't before we sacked the manager who got us...

    [Albion] Relegation Odds

    Only if you have 20-20 hindsight. It was the right price in the circumstances ahead of the Cardiff game and we are the right price now at 5-2, which implies around 25pc chance of relegation if you factor in the margin. We are a better price to get something this weekend than Cardiff, and we...

    [Politics] Brexit

    They never had a majority but they made effective use of the seats they did have. There's a photo in the Reichstag museum of the Nazi bloc in the chamber after the election - all in uniform and swastika armbands and all sat together en masse. Looks scary in black and white 80 years later, must...

    [Albion] FA Cup betting.

    It's a three-horse race but still, decent price when 22-1 is top with most bookies.

    [Albion] Roll call - FA Cup Semi Final 1983/2019

    There in 83, working tomorrow. Kick off is the start of the only two hours of the entire f*cking year that I can't make any time to watch.

    [Politics] Brexit

    We voted to become a second-tier economy next door to the biggest free-trade bloc in the world, at precisely the moment when the rest of the world is starting to form into trading blocs too. As a result, every single trade deal we sign, including the one with the EU, will be on worse terms than...

    Run away in complete disarray with our shoelaces tied together would be nearer the mark.

    [Politics] Brexit

    Out of interest, when you thought it all through and did the maths, roughly how much of a hit did you expect the UK economy to take as a result of voting to Leave? Or, to put it another way, what in your opinion is the maximum price worth paying for "full extrication"? 10pc of GDP maybe, or...

    [Other Sport] 2019 Grand National - Saturday 6th April

    Jury Duty has a decent chance but don't take 16-1 when there's loads of 25-1 still available.

    [Politics] Brexit

    It's a fundamental flaw in the concept - the angry are more galvanised to vote for change than the content are motivated to defend the status quo. It's why any referendum on such an immense and irreversible change in a country's relationship with the world would normally require a super-majority...

    No, it's not. It's negotiated free trade, which is a very different thing to the automatic, frictionless trade you get as as a member of the single market. The terms will be, inevitably, significantly worse than we enjoy at the moment because the combined economies of the single-market countries...

    They can also expect to live with the consequences for 60-70 years. About 500k people of voting age have died each year since the last referendum, and that will also be the case after the next one. Sixteen-year-olds have the most to gain & lose.

    And the best deal in the biggest of the lot, too. Rebate, keep sterling, opt out on Schengen etc etc.

    [Albion] What odds do you think you would have got on the goalie doing that?

    Odds about us scoring at that point would have been around 33-1 (the price for a draw on Betfair), having probably come down a little after the free-kick was awarded in a dangerous position. The average chance of scoring from any single corner is about the same ie. about 3pc. But that's just...

    [Albion] The "I can't go to Wembley" thread

    At the Grand National. Race is due off at 5.15 so won't even be able to watch on the telly. Would have been fine to go on the Sunday, bloody annoying.

    [Politics] Brexit

    This is/was always going to be the end result: poorer, weaker, less control. Not really sure why anyone would imagine a different end result if you are an important player in a top-tier 28-country trading bloc and then vote to go it alone as a second-tier economy which is right next door to -...
