same, in hindsight it was probably easier to lay, but never thought of it.

same as, (ish), couldn't afford to lay a huge amount, so backing adkins seemed the more sensible option.

Must admit, I did lay Poyet on Betfair at about 6-4, but that was when he was about evens for the job so whoever did it when he was massive odds-on would be laughing.
Even though I couldn't see it was the right move for him I wasn't confident, money talks and they have more. At the moment.
If Poyet has had an interview but doesn't go, it is hard to come to any other conclusion than it is a thinly veiled threat to Bloom and the board what will happen if he doesn't get some more cash to spend. And maybe a pay rise.

Di Canio has gone from 33's to 9's as well though, just a flurry of betting.

Sort of
Poyet will be backed to an extent though. As an example, I may well back Poyet having laid him off big time earlier. This is to release some funds back into my account (If they announce an interim manager the market wont close if I have read T&C's right) and clear any liabilities for a fraction of what I have put up. Earlier, there was £2K queuing up at Odds on. Now there is a tenner. Now look at what is queuing up for Adkins...

Layed him at 1.25 until my eyes bled. As I said on the other thread it takes peanuts to get the bookies slashing the odds and then the sheep pile in thinking it must be true if a bookie is going 1 to 10. They see 1.25 on betfair and think they are buying money.

SO.....the next question is do we do the same with Adkins, whilst the market is so unstable......must be worth laying him for a couple of bob.
This is FANTASTIC.

He'll need to be in charge for 10 games for a pay out.....they've only got 8 games left. He's 16/1 at Stans if you fancy a couple of quid on him though.

This is where things get very tricky with laying Poyet (or any manager). He may stay now but if he goes in the summer and becomes the next "permanent" manager then the lay bets will be lost.
