how many backed him and at what prices? i didn't myself

£20 e/w 40-1

£0 at 100-1. I stand to make an infinitely large percentage return

Yup, the song sounds good to me! I suggested a similar song a few weeks back, but that sounds a gooden.

Scored another "dreamy" goal tonight I am hearing.

Can anyone expand upon this for me?

Judging by the words of Ed Hadwin, he had time, looked around, and lofted it over the keeper without looking like he was trying. Looking forward to seeing the highlights

£2.50 Each Way at 50/1
Pays top 4 scorers

best damn player in League One.

Paynter's going to be getting his name on that list soon the way he's going!

The second one was a brilliant finish one on one with the keeper and a lovely lob on the half volley, he took his other 2 well as well.  Him and Paynter were excellent tonight, both caused them problems all the time.

Im a sad bastard but im your sad bastard. have a wank over this

And that is on top of, what, 15 goals last season?

He must average over a goal every other game here.

Here comes Statto.

79 (+2) games
43 goals

That breaks down to:

League
73 (+1) 39

League Cup
1 1

FA Cup
1 0

Piss Poor Paint Pot
4 (+1) 3

Can you dig out that thread where a whole load of people said he was plop because he didn't score in his first league game here?

I'm only joking.

Don't do that.

Let's all enjoy him whilst he is here.

I read this but seeing it on the sky sidebar scares me...we're 15th with the best forward...hes gone,but i wish he wouldn't leave...just because i'l probably never watch him ever again

http://thetownend.com/index.php/topic,23492.0.html

Has he now beaten Parkin's best ever season here?

Yes, by one.

Parkins best was 26. Cox has 27.

Parkin and Mooney managed 43 goals. Cox & Paynter have 38.

Serious congratulations are in order for Simon Cox then.

Well done.

Don't go... :(

In my opinion Billy P deserves alot of credit to.

He's Heskey to Cox's Owen!

Reading the OS paynter 2 assists and 1 goal,coxy 1 assist and 3 goals - mcnamee with the other assist.

that is what we need, attackers that are setting each other up,helping each others confidence..would like to see cox hit 30. A-cause he's young and 30 in his first full season at a club playing first team is going to get him noticed and B-we can get a few £'s for him.

£10 e/w (20 total) at 50/1

On another note I hope to god the board are willing to spend a bit next year to replace him.

22/1 but not each way, only on being top. I'm guessing it pays out if he finishes joint top, but I'm not sure.

ok im a spastic, but i put £20 bet (£10 e/w) at 40-1 if he comes top what do i get, and its top 4 finish so what would i get for 2nd 3rd or 4th?

If you read the thread it says he shouldn't start gobbing off giving it the "got to pick me" large one after just one average game.

Hope that clears up your misunderstanding ;)

I need to know that for my 50/1 too - considering you misled me originally! :D

Finishes in top 4 = £10 @ 12.5/1 (quarter odds) = £125

Finishes top = (£10 @ 40/1) + (£10 @ 12.5/1) = £525

Can you do that for 50/1 too?  Sorry im rubbish at this stuff!

cheers for that, thats fucking lush.

Finishes in top 4 = £10 @ 12.5/1 (quarter odds) = £125

Finishes top = (£10 @ 50/1) + (£10 @ 12.5/1) = £625

and you get the £10 or £20 back respectively.

Thank you, woop!

I'm not so sure we will sell tho'. How often do you find a 25+ goal as season striker. That's ussually the basis for a good run at the playoffs given a decent defence.
If we were to sell, you lose that. Even spending the money on the squad won't guarantee those goals are replaced.
So barring silly offers (3-4 mill ion plus ) I'd keep him. I don't think his value will decrease at all (barring injury), so it's not a grab it while yoiu can senario. I trust the board are astute enough to realise this.

We won't want to sell but we might have to consider it if a big enough offer is tabled and Im pretty sure Cox will want to go onto bigger and better things...

Given the sheer number of scouts now attending our games I think we can safely assume Cox will not be here for the start of next season.  Seems the clubs on the whole are Championship ones with a budget or lower Prem level teams willing to take a punt on someone who could turn out to be great, may not - in a sort of Nugent way.  Certainly heard 7 figure sums now being used in discussion as not being off puting.

My hope is that he will want to stay until we get in to the Championship, and the Board supports this. If he goes, it will show lack of ambition by the Club, and scoring strikers are very hard to find. Que sera etc.

I think it's an unrealistic view, to think we can keep him. Either "stupid" money will be bid, and make no mistake everybody has a price. Or Cox will want to leave.

If he did want to stay I'd assume he'd have to sign a new contract if merely to protect us from his contract expiring. Can we even afford to pay the wage he is now worth?!

What Batch said, he'd have to do a Parkin and sign a new contract so he's got an extra year if we want to keep him beyond the end of the season.

I assume if the worst came to worse at the end of the season he let his contract run down we'd still get some compo if we offered him a new contract because he'll be under 24.

So we'd get what someone classes as a fair price for 3 years training and 50 odd goals.

We either need to sell him in the summer or get him to sign a new deal.

No point in keeping him til Jan, the goals he scores in the 1st half of the season wouldnt be enough to guarantee us doing anything and we'd end up getting a shit fee.

about 30p then.

Think I bet £3 at 33/1. I know it returns £99 though.

Samdy how is it you've made 1/4 odds of Mex's 40/1 price as 12.5/1?

I thought you were supposed to be good with numbers?

I did realise that after I posted it :oops: but didn't correct myself and hoped nobody would notice my stupidity.

Samdy Gray by name, Sandy Gray by nature.

I got Cox at about 25/1, Lambert at 54/1, and also have Beckford, McKail-Smith, and a few others at shitish odds. I want Lambert to finish top, because i only care about the moeny.

I really wanted to put on cox top goal scorer at the start of the season but was totally skint at the time. Should have tried harder to find a way maybe, if only a couple quid.

Sylvan Ebanks-Blake has just pulled out of the England Under 21 squad.

I wonder....hmmm

he's the championship loan player?   fucking sweet!

Afraid not

Coxy for England?

If that was the case we'd be fucked, we'd only have two internationals so our game wouldn't be called off.

Good job Coxy is brazillian then

I didn't until you posted the the 50/1 calcs for Luci with the same each way price!

Isnt lescinal haitan? im sure ive read he's played international somewhere..but i may have made that up.

he has but i dont suppose they will have a world cup qualifier the same time as all the european nations.
