Title: Season Bets - How are they doing?
Post by: Bob's Orange on Friday, February 15, 2019, 14:54:50
Audrey's post about his £16,000 bet got me thinking I had some bets and I should probably check how they are doing. Pleasingly for once, I have a chance of winning some money. Here's my list of bets that still have a chance, anyone in the same boat?

Athletico Madrid to win La Liga (without Barca and Real Madrid), Cardiff to be relegated, Leeds top 6 finish, Barnsley top 6 finish, Franchise top 7 finish and Juve to win Serie A.

£106 back if this happens. Cardiff and Franchise seem to be the pesky kids in this one.

Aubameyang to be Premier Top Scorer  - £37.50 back. This has a chance as long as Arsenal buck up their ideas

Man City to win the league and Auba Top scorer - £55 back. Same as above really.

Liverpool to win the league, Leeds to be promoted, Barnsley to be promoted, Lincoln to be promoted - This looks very good at the moment. Liverpool are the risky one here.

Hudds to be relegated, Reading to be relegated, Walsall to be relegated, Macclesfield to be relegated, Hamilton to finish bottom of the Scottish Prem - £638 back. Good chance here although Hamilton and Reading have woken up a bit recently.

Hudds to finish bottom, Reading to finish bottom, Walsall to finish bottom, Morecambe to finish bottom - £1,934. Not dead, but unlikely.

Man City, Barca, Juve, Bayern, PSG, Ajax, Benfica to win their domestic leagues and Leverkusen to win the Europa League - £667 back. Bayern and Ajax playing catchup a bit. Hugely reliable on Leverkusen which was the gamble

Man City to win the league, Man U top 4, West Ham and Wolves top 10 and Cardiff relegated - £68 back. Looks in decent shape. Would rather Cardiff would stop winning!

Man City win league, Auba top scorer, West Ham finish top half and Huddersfield relegated - £102 back. Potential.

Liverpool top 2, Spurs top 4, Wolves top half finish and Cardiff relegated - £42. Pesky Cardiff again!

Leeds and Villa to get promoted, Bolton and Rotherham relegated - £251 back. Need Villa to buck up and get in the play offs!

Leeds and Villa to get promoted, Ipswich and Reading relegated - £1,001 back. As above. Would gladly have Reading going down instead of Rotherham!!

Villa win the play-offs and Bolton to be relegated - £82 back. Come on Villa!!

Barnsley win league one and Walsall finish bottom - £162 back. A few weeks ago this looked dead but Walsall are dropping like a stone. Need Luton to start to falter

Walsall, Gillingham and Blackpool relegated - £58 back. Need Blackpool to have lots of points deducted!

Barnsley and Sunderland to score 70+ league goals and Pompey and Posh to score 60+ - £56 back. This is more or less done. Sunderland look dodgy, need 19 goals in 16 games.

Franchise, Mansfield and Lincoln all to be promoted - £116 back. Franchise seem to be the dodgy one here

Franchise, Swindon and Lincoln all to be promoted - £134 back. As above :)

Jesus Christ, that’s one helluva list!

I did about half a dozen per league as well as some other mixtures.  Staked £110 in total. Some are completely dead but most, as you can see still have a chance. I'll probably end up with bugger all still!
