    I put it on, plus got 5 mates to put it on for me last week at 9/4... free money. I can't believe you can still get 15/8!
  • SkyBet max stake suggests even they know its the wrong price...
  • I also backed us at 9/4 previously & just added some more at 15/8, after last nights result confirmed we are on our way to top half.

    Promotion is a bridge to far to put money on but what the heck put a small bet on anyway as its Sky's money I will be using. 
  • I have plenty at 9/4 and 15/8

    Been using the £5 free bets to take 50/1 on promotion, too....
  • 200 quid on it yesterday and its still available as of now pays £575.   
  • Max stake with sky bet is now about £130, I've just done it. 
  • Yup easy money that……hopefully

    Paddy power 8/5

  • Still a bigger price than the 6/4 I got for top 6 at the start of the season,

    Biggest shock is you can still get even money.

    OK now it's squeaky bum time
  • Took max bet at 3/1 on Thursday. Decent sweat now. Especially with Cambridge playing Cheltenham on final day

    I took the bet so ever hopeful, points we threw away against Morecambe both H & A will probably cost us/me

    It's all a bit embarrassing that we are having to fight for even a top half place given all our hopes and aspirations at the start of the season. I mean who actually thought at that time that it would be an achievement to make the top 12? The bookies certainly didn't as we were a best priced 6/4 to finish in the top 6!

    ……or any number of other shit results. 
  • Ha ha I bottled it & cashed out a while back, still made on it though!

    I got 3/1 before the Morecambe game, I think 4 points would do it

    Cambridge winning at Wigan was a huge shock and not expected at all. Still 2/1 today. The huge goal difference was the key factor in me taking the bet.

    I cashed out in January, genuinely feel shameful I know we have zero chance of finishing in the top half

    Accrington might actually be the ones to scupper us. They could beat Lincoln at home and then are away to Wimbledon who, by then, might be relegated - Wimbledon haven't won a match for 26 matches albeit that they have drawn 9 of their last 13 home games.

    I cashed out near end of January made a small profit but at that time my thinking was not to lose money then.

    I forget who it was but someone on here cashed out a few weeks earlier and would have done well profit wise.  He sussed out Charlton were on the slide again quicker than me.

    Had £20 at evens and thought it was nailed on. Had just about given up on it until the win at Cambridge. Being offered £11.39. 
    Tempted. 
    Can’t see us winning both remaking games.
