Gus Poyet to be in charge of Brighton on last day of season

1/5 (for the mathematically challenged : invest 5 return 5+1)

Obviously only for serious investors!

I wouldn't go anywhere near that at that price. Maybe Gus Poyet to be in charge for the Doncaster game! but 1/5 on just isn't worth the risk.

To quote Jimmy Greaves - Football is a funny old game and stranger things have happened. It only takes a big Premiership club to lose their manager and we get a good start whilst also claiming a few big scalps in cup competitions which always boost the profile of a manager.

Wouldn't touch that with a proverbial barge pole. Very little gain for a prediction 10 months ahead in a completely fickle game. Anything can happen in that time.

But if the chances of this happening are less than one in six, then they are good odds. Compared to other investments this is relatively secure: how probable is the price of gold to increase by 20% in that timespan, for example? Mind you, if gold crashes then you wouldn't lose all your money whereas if Gus has an affair with Mr Bloom's missus/heart attack/transfer back-hander scandal etc. then you lose the lot!

That reminds me. I had a £25 bet with a work colleague that Gus would lead us out for our first game at Falmer on the day he was appointed. Must remember to collect that on Monday...
