    Attention all Sunderland fans,........

    Ladstrokes : Sunderland to finish 2007/08 season in lower half of table - 8/13
    (ladbokes/football/footballspecials/sunderlandspecials)


    Boil-sports : Sunderland tyo finish in top half of table 2007/08 - 5/2
    (boyles/soccerspecials/sunderlandspecials)

    Scenario : 100 euro @ 8/13 = 161.64
    .......................61.64 euro@ 5/2 = 215.74

    Profit 51euro+ if Sunderland end up in 10th or above . No risk.

    yeah,....Boyles are the new sponsors for Sunderland this year,... so they are laying off their own sucess,.......they're offering better than betfair for a top 6 premiership finish too
    when they first came out with the top 10 finish , they priced it as 9/2 !!

    Boyles used to do a "Happy Hour" between 6-7pm,..where they would bolster odds on certain events,...probably in an attempt to spread they money on large bets taken.
    but it was a great idea whilst it lasted !!

    well,...paddy's are also offering 5/2,.......
    so see how much ladbrokes will take ,.... then you should have no problem placing the surplus between paddy's , boyles,.... and bet365 are offering 2/1 if you really got stuck.

    Ah I wouldn't stake that much but I will probably stake enough so as if the bet loses (I break even) I won't have lost more than €150-€200 on the interest I would have made on the money in that year, if ya get me. Kudos to you for posting this anyway :)

    Great find

    For those of you who want to lock in on an overall profit you need to do

    100 @ 8/13 = 161.64
    and 46.66 @ 5/2 = 161.65

    Profit = €15 on a stake of €146.66 regardless of outcome (10% risk free return)
