Premier League - the big four (English Football)

Probably the Yanks in here voted for Man City.

One Canadian voted for Manchester City - me - even though I realise that Newcastle United is a more logical choice to join the elites. It would be interesting to see Man City move up a bit in the rarer atmosphere enjoyed by that other side claiming to reside in Manchester. Furthermore, a good result by Man City would create lots of comments for the Bangkok Post and Nation, and for ex-pats here and on Thaivisa The manager and owner will be headline makers if the squad achieves success, and not necessarily for football related news.

I just had to go with my head... Obviously I'd want Liverpool in first but then again I also want to have kids with Tata Young so that is 2 things that aren't going to happen anytime soon.

I wonder if Man. City are on the bottom of the table at Christmas will the fans have a coup d'etat!!! Deja vouz or what!!!!!! Maybe Thaksin can go on the run across the border to the sanctuary.......... Of Wales!!!

Ok Galee, we have 6 people who believe Man City will be in the top four this season.

Either they don't know anything about the game WHATSOEVER, or....... they know something that we don't

Anyway, I would be happy to wager 1000 baht with each of you that Man City do not finish in the top 4. What the hell, make it 5000....any takers?

Only sometimes!!!!

I known City fans are renown for their loyalty, but there's a big difference between wishful thinking and reality.

This thread will be kept alive for many months if we throw in a few pounds.

To start the betting, I would be prepared to wager a few pounds om Man City.

All of you who know better, what odds do you offer?

And who volonteers to be the bookmaker?

I,ll give you 8-1 against

Man C winning the Premiership, and 2-1 finishing in the top 4, & 6-4 for them to qualify for Europe!!!!

Also 8-1 against them winning the F.A. Cup

Ralph,

It is a good rule to put one's money where the mouth is, so I'll bet on Man City to be one of the top four teams as discussed here.

Odds 20-1 like Ladbrokes?

How much/little can we bet and still keep it friendly?

I suggest that the winner also sets aside a few bath to buy some beers for us to celebrate his good luck.

Sanuk, great fun!

Hope you ALL havent Forgotten,But GAMBLING in LOS is 100% ILLEGAL

Golfer to be, Iwould not like to rob you, Ladbrokes prices are 50-1 to finish in the top 4, and 1000-1 to win the league or the Cup!!!

So maybe we should just have the beer , when Pompey play Man C!!!

Ralph,

A few beers it is. Then we do not break the Thai law.

I think (from memory) that as the server is in the US, Lee could also find himself charged with Racketeering

Premier League - the big four (English Football)

Newcastle, Spurs, Man City or Villa to replace Arsenal in top four.
