What a lucky man our new manager on his first day we are likely to be under a transfer embargo again:facepalm: what a welcome

Correct so £1,666 profit

 

[oldfiver]

Do you not read the other threads?

but 57/100 still with betfair

 

[steveecov]

never wrong - if you believe that - put £10k on Mowbray with betfair to return £15700 and £1450 on rosler to return £1595 - and if you really believe it is between them 2 , you then have a guaranteed £4k+ profit

think you'll find your maths are wrong. You'll have us all broke.

You can get odds on Rosler of 10/1 so he missed a 0 off his Rosler, it would return £15,950.

Right. Now....how to get hold of that odd £11k. I know...Dear Uncle Tim...

That, with the Mowbray figure being wrong and no "guaranteed " £4k profit he is correct then?

The Mowbray figure is correct I believe, Betfair has odds of 57/100 for Mowbray which would return £15,700 on £10k I think. So I think he is right other than missing a 0 off Rosler.

I don't gamble anyway but it looks right to me.

I've never been a fan of Mowbray. He has the air of a simpleton about him.

He will fit in just fine then

Down here he'll appear a genius.

Whoever we get, I hope the compensation is tied to (a) escaping relegation this season and (b) performance this and next season and (c) home attendances.

If the final two are Mowbray and Rosler they are both good options and it shows that managers must think we are still a good option, could you imagine these two being in the running for the Walsall job or somewhere like that.

ha, accounting worthy of CCFC !

If you win £1595 on Rosler if he becomes manager, how can you have a guaranteed £10k profit ?

Once we have finished with them - yes...very realistic thought.

He missed a 0 off, you'd actually win £15,950 which would be a guaranteed 4k profit if one of them was appointed (although the odds on Mowbray have changed since so you no longer would)

His simple team talks might just pay off. "PASS DA BALL UP DA FIELD DEN SCORE GOALS"

Finally someone gets it.

So 2 becomes 1.

Pity that 3 headed Cerberus of joy, tim and steve cant act as 1.

£10000 at 57/100 will return £10518

 

[steveecov]

oh if only.

 

[steveecov]

The 57/100 was not available at lunchtime

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

£10000 at 57/100 will return £10518

I don't think it would, £100 would return £157. So a £10k bet would return 157 x 100

£157 x 100 = £15,700

 

[kg82]

£10000 at 57/100 will return £10518

No it wouldn't. It's practically 1/2, meaning if you put £2 on you'd get back £1. Or if you put £10000 on you'd get back £5000.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Was available on betfair earlier

Mowbray odds throughout the day
