24 points? Interesting. Would need to study past tables to see how that would work out but it seems like a risk to me.

But good luck to you!

Kanu has 4 goals in 3 league games for Pompey now... Closing in on his 7 in 53 leagues games for W.B.A!

I think Portsmouth will do quite well this year. Redknapp's a good manager and he's turned them around, they also have a fair bit of money now so could definitely see them finishing in the top half. Sounds like a pretty good bet.

Is that spread betting?

Spreading the odds on them finishing in say the top six would make you a mint. You'd just sell the bet as the odds decrease.

A mate made a shit load on Chelsea not winning title a few seasons back. He sold the odds at the start of the season at some ridiculous price and within a few games bought them back at much longer odds  (If you don't understand spread betting, the above will make zero sense).
