Just got a response from Bet365 (who you had to request odds from), and they're only offering 25/1 on Charlton to reach the Play-Offs!
They've just quoted me 50/1. Perhaps because I've been pestering them for the last two nights for a price only to be told on the first night that the soccer traders have gone home and last night that only the "match" traders were in! Got told to phone back this morning and they still had to go through to their trading team.
Why they can't just include all the teams involved is beyond me unless, of course, they are hoping for a "result" with one of the teams not ordinarily quoted by them actually making it ;-)
And just to illustrate the point, how many of these results couldn't happen?
Leicester v Watford 0-2 Blackburn v Crystal Palace 2-0 Cardiff v Bolton 2-0 Leeds v Brighton 1-1 Middlesbrough v Charlton 0-2 Millwall v Nott'm Forest 1-1 Millwall v Crystal Palace 2-0 Bolton v Blackpool 1-1 Charlton v Bristol City 2-0 Crystal Palace v Peterborough 1-1 Nott'm Forest v Leicester 1-1
And we would actually not finish 6th with those results but 5th.
Then what happens when the layer says "I was only joking"?

If people want to join in the Charlton Life fund raising for the Upbeats then any money is welcome.
Easiest way is a bank transfer to Charlton Athletic Community Trust:
Contact for payments is Rob Wood.
Bank of Scotland
Sort code 12-01-03
Acc no. 06085604
Please make the reference "CL UPS Your username"
That is a general CACT account so we need to track payments and inform their finance officer to make sure the money goes to the upbeats.
Let me know on here or via the inbox so we can liaise with the Trust.
We've been asked by Carl, who runs the upbeats project to help pay for a new kit for the teams which I and Curb-it think is a great idea.
I'm still hoping to collect.
I'm good at paying up what's due. Just not collecting.

Senario A: Charlton make the play-offs. "I'm not paying out just because you typed £10, as you didn't hand the money over, the bet is void"
Senario B: (most likely) "Cough up guys, a bet's a bet".
Stick me down for £2............
So far he has just ignored my question
Crazy chair i reckon you could be 30k out of pocket
Not that you will pay
