    (Although technically they're not ante post, and could even be classed as in running)

    I've the Minnesota Viikings backed at 100 to win the Superbowl. Currently the form team in the NFC (bar Cowboys), they started poorly but have two class running backs which will help them in poor weather. If they get the wild card spot they'll probably play either Seattle or San Diego. I'd back the vikiings in either of those games. Their price will plummet as they near a play off spot so ample trading oppurtunities IMO. Obviously they're not guarenteed a play off spot yet but they're going forward while the likes of the Lions are fading quickly.

    I've backed Frank Rijkarrd at 150 for the England job. Has indicated this will be his last season with Barca. Speaks perfect English and has already managed a national side (Holland). Seems to have the quiet dignity the FA will look for and an openness with the media too. I've also a fiver on Steve Coppell at 50/1 in case they go with an English man. Can't see anyone more qualified than him

    I think there's far worse punts out there. Loads of reasons why they're big prices. i've just givena couple why i think they're overpriced

    PS I hate the word soccer. Just didn't want to write Football/American Football in the title

    Should say My bets are all with betfair. As i'm using them for trading I prefer to have it all infront of merather than in different sites. 125/1 is excellent value IMO

    Well there's a reason why they're 125/1 too...

    I'm just giving a few reasons why I think they might be over priced.
