  1. I like these optimistic threads but... Not wanting to piss on your bonfire but a lot of bookies have these games priced up already. A Saints/Draw/Saints treble pays about 8/1. That's a long enough shot - let alone the umpteen games after that... Can't wait for when the BBC puts up their 'who's gonna win the league/get relegated' predictor page. You know - the thing where people spend 10 mins filling out the scores of 100-odd games and then solemnly declare that xxx team will stay up by 1 point. Interestingly the bookies have Leeds as favs to beat Leicester. I think there's def some value in the Leicester price. I'd have it as more of a coin-flip game. Especially after Leicester bottled it today. Can't see them losing 2 in a row after the season they've had so far. We shall see... https://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/championship/leeds-v-leicester/winner
  2. Away from football - has anyone ever met someone who has answered 'West Bromwich' when asked where they are from? I don't think I ever have. Easy Saints win tonight. Bring it on.
  3. How much are you putting on? I'm guessing at least a couple of grand? Can't believe the bookies are letting people bet on something that is 'obvious'. They are literally giving money away!
  4. I bet you think Pompey are gonna win the league as well don't you? Ages to go before things are nailed on - in any league.
  5. They're gonna refund. Wonder if they actually tested it before putting it live? https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/news/article/refunds-to-be-issued-for-norwich-streaming-passes
  6. Yep it's a rip-off. Paid up for the video and it doesn't work. Sums the club up. What a joke.
  7. If Pompey had been taken over by billionaires and offered him big wages then it would be 'I've always wanted to play for my home town club'. As it is West Ham have offered him the highest salary so it'll be something like 'It's important that I play in the Prem League to increase my chances of playing for England and I've always thought West Ham fans are some of the best around.' (or whatever...). Out of interest - are we getting any quotes from the players who are going to Saudi? Have any of them tried to bullshit at all about it NOT being for the money? I don't blame the players for blindly moving for more money. Just don't expect me wish any of them 'good luck'. Hopefully West Ham play him as a defensive midfielder and his first few free kicks are bad ones. Not that he'll care that much really...
  8. Thanks. Works fine after having to register. Better than nothing!
  9. Love the team - looks quality. Saints to win easily. It's guaranteed mush I tell ya. Top of the league tonight.
  10. I reckon they'll be about 30 games out of the 46 that ain't on ESPN+ so it works out about $7 a game for USA based fans. Would have bitten your arm off for that a few years back. Seems expensive now because we've been spoiled with the cheap Prem TV coverage of recent years. Will give it a go. Would rather pay a bit extra to watch Saints than some Prem game that I don't really care about.
  11. You can subscribe to ESPN+ (ESPN+ is different than plain ESPN. ESPN+ is online - not a TV channel) for $9.99 a month (https://plus.espn.com/). Sorry - no idea if you have to have a USA address though. If you can subscribe you'd def get the Sheff Weds game. Or get a VPN for your phone and watch it through your Sky account. If not then just check on the main board nearer the time. Might be some links to watch it. Should have come over last season - would have been a lot easier! Have a good holiday.
  12. 20 points clear by xmas I reckon! Well maybe 10. Praps 5.
  13. Current best available odds taken from oddschecker.com Mon 31 Jul 2023. Season starts Fri 4 Aug (5 days time). Some team here is well under priced. But who? Stoke at 16/1 to be relegated? Sunderland at 8/1 to be promoted? I'm just gonna bet on Saints to get promoted. You've got to ain't ya? If they did actually win the league then you're a little bit gutted but not that much. You've won your bet and umm, Saints have won the league! Enjoy the season everyone. May all your bets be winners. Winner 4/1 Leicester 7/1 Leeds 8/1 Saints 10/1 Middlesbrough 16/1 Norwich 18/1 Ipswich 20/1 Watford / West Brom / Sunderland 25/1 Stoke 28/1 Coventry 33/1 Millwall 40/1 Blackburn / Swansea 50/ Bristol City 66/1 Sheffield Wednesday / Hull / Cardiff / Preston / Birmingham 80/1 QPR / Huddersfield 125/1 Plymouth Argyle 200/ Rotherham To be promoted (1st/2nd/Play-off winner) 13/8 Leicester 12/5 Leeds 5/2 Saints 4/1 Middlesbrough 5/1 Norwich 11/2 Ipswich / West Brom 6/1 Watford 7/1 Stoke 8/1 Sunderland / Coventry 9/1 Millwall 11/1 Swansea 12/1 Blackburn 14/1 Bristol City 16/1 Hull / Preston 18/1 Birmingham / Sheffield Wednesday 22/1 Cardiff 28/1 Huddersfield / QPR 40/1 Rotherham / Plymouth Argyle Relegation 15/8 Rotherham 5/2 Plymouth Argyle 3/1 QPR 10/3 Cardiff 7/2 Sheffield Wednesday / Huddersfield 9/2 Birmingham 5/1 Preston 11/2 Hull 13/2 Bristol City 8/1 Swansea / Blackburn 12/1 Millwall / Coventry 14/1 West Brom / Sunderland 16/1 Watford / Stoke 20/1 Ipswich 25/1 Norwich 33/1 Middlesbrough 40/1 Leeds 50/1 Saints 66/1 Leicester
  14. Saints are going to piss this league. Well finish top anyway. Norwich go up in 2nd. Millwall to win the play-offs. Preston (and a couple of others) to get relegated.
  15. Pretty sure they get the replays up pretty quickly - seem to remember having to avoid/watch later for a League Cup game sometime. Will know for sure on Friday - we'll see how long it takes to get the Sheff Weds game replay available... You not up for getting up at 4.30am for the Plymouth game then? Plastic supporter!
