Look if you have $20,000 sitting in the bank invest it on Chelsea
Chelsea absolute montys to win league title, they have a superior list to any in English football even with the likely departures of duff and del horno. the addition of ballack and shevchenko (arguably 2 of the best players the world) added to the existing world class squad, the only thing that will beat them is complacency and I cant see that happening with mourinho in charge. he is the master of taking the pressure and focus off his players with his extroverted personality.
Beter than bank interest $1.40 IS TERRIFIC value for a $1.04 chance..... and only 8 months to wait and you can take your family on an $8,000 round the world trip. We'll see what they say about our gambling addictions then.
*Think what your really gambling with!!!

3 quality teams behind them AG... only need a couple of hic-ups and Man U will get them.
Liverpool are expected to improve and Arsenal are always unknown.

$1-40 is that dyslexic odds for $1-04 ?

Don't forget an up and coming Tottenham team that have bought a few good players combined with half the England side (Robinson, King, Carrick, Lennon, Defoe) and a great group of youngsters. Spurs will really push this year after going so close to the top 4 and Champions League last season. They are finally stepping up from the team that always finished 8-12th every year and they finally have some money to buy the top players after signing the huge playing shirt sponsorship deal - top 10 of all time.

they are getting better frosty but can you seriously see them challenging the top 4? not for me!!!

by **another grub** » Tue Jul 18, 2006 1:45 pm

frosty, what about lampard, cole, terry, wright phillips- better english internationals than spurs lot, then throw in essien, crespo, robben, makelele and cech in goal...
its a funny game and anything can happen on the day, but over the entire season spurs vs. chelsea - are you serious??? as i said .....only complacency the danger

It is a ridiculous bet - Im guessing if you had $20,000 lying around to gamble, then you wouldnt need the 8000$ profit from the win.

by **another grub** » Tue Jul 18, 2006 6:04 pm

fair enough to get on here and say 'ridiculous bet'. Can you give reasons why they wont win and who will win MDM? or is that just too big a bet for you?

I wouldn't want to tie up 20K for that long.
You could have weekly even money bets with less outlay for the same/better result.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

One difference if your weekly bet loses you lose
If Chelsea get beaten in a game you still win the $1-40 year bet.

Because most people on here dont have 20 grand to invest on chelsea - thats why it is ridiculous. If you read what I said, I never said they wouldnt win, just that it is a ridiculous bet, because if someone has 20 grand to put on this type of bet, then there is no way they need 8 grand profit!

Touchy, Touchy.

by **another grub** » Wed Jul 19, 2006 9:33 am

so they will win now........all aboard.

in AG's defence someone might have $20k in the bank earniing 5% therefore they would make $1000- interest for 12 months and you pay tax on that....with this bet, if you have the guts, you can get $8000- tax free for 8 month investment - im sure the pros would look at it

by **another grub** » Wed Jul 19, 2006 1:50 pm

anyone with a brain would look at it!

Go and put your 10 bucks on it AG. Well done.

a profit is a profit - as MT79 says....

If your keen on this bet Id mutli it into the Aussies regaining the ashes at $1.40 and youd get about even money...that 100% interest tax free!!!

Never said they wouldnt win - Just stating none of you will put 20 grand on Chelsea to win the title, so why hypothesise.
I just reckon talk about bets that you DO lay, not ones that appear good IF you put them on.
