Best Odds Available

25/1 is available on Freddy, which is magnificent value when judged against the 28/1 Barry Conlon!

Wayne Gray available at 50's.

 

[Angell Delight]

IMHO 25/1 is fantastic odds, particularly as Leroy Lita's just left L1.

Course it does rely on Freddy staying past the January transfer window though......

Not if he joins another L1 side....

 

[Shrimper2thecore]

Which there would be no gain in him doing

Any chance of someone cutting and pasting the full list of odds as my office firewall doesn't allow me to look at betting sites?

Cheers

Laurie Dudfield 10,000-1

Tes Bramble (following miraculous re-buy from Tilly) 50,000-1

Gangly Dave 150-1

 

[Spaceman Spiff]

That list also quotes Wayne Gray at 50-1 if anyone is feeling brave...

Already on Freddie, but like the look of Fryatt at 33 as a saver.

25-1 is not bad odds on Freddy, might have a punt! Who's the favorite?

Our no. 9 at 3s hopefully!

I might have to reopen my betting again. Problem every year seems to be I make a wad before Christmas where teams are consistent and then lose a wad when teams struggle with the pressure.*










*Of course, the losing wad is invariably bigger than the winning wad

Marcus Stewart is probably going to hit around 35 goals. Freddy has little chance of getting anywhere near him

Bramble 66/1 in League 2. Should be 666/1

35 goals?! What was the winning total last year?

Having not checked their odds, I can imagine that it would be worth a few quid on Windass, Stewart, Bridges, Fryatt for starters.

 

[Southendsleeper]

My heart says to bet on Freddy...

My wallet on the other hand...

 

[Shrimpersarmy]

I recon Freddy can do it if he stays the whole season, he has been in fine form pre-season, should be much fitter after his first real pre-season training, and at the moment it looks like Mitchell Cole is the type of winger who will provide plenty of assists for him.

You have got to look beyond Freddy I reckon. A lot of players in professional sports suffer a second season blip. This is where they become found out and aren't as effective second time round, for example, Jon Stead at Blackburn. First season scores a hat ful of goals in their battle against relegation, second season scores one all season. Kevin Phillips at Sunderland scored 30 Premier$hite goals first time around and struggled badly second time around. Andrew Strauss, scored a lot of runs in his first season with England, now his struggling.

Granteed, this doesn't happen to everyone, and I pray that it doesn't happen to Freddy but its a possibility. Look to the proven goal scorers or some up and coming star, for example Matt Fryatt at Walsall, top scorer in the Europen Under 19 championship at the moment and the final, featuring England is on tonight from 7 on Eurosport.

Talking of other strikers, I was interested to see that Akinfenwa was ruled by the tribunal to be only worth £35K - plus another £50K or so depending on appearances and then a 15% sell-on.

Makes the Torquay chairman look a bit bloody stupid when he was suggesting that Akinfenwa was worth about £350K...

High 20s I think.

Stewart is a goal machine though. If he stays fit he'll murder defences at this level (apart from when he's up against Super Adam Barrett & co obviously....). Particularly playing for a Bristol City side who are surely finally going to ount a successful promotion campaign.
