As it stands I'd say it's about 50/50.

I don't see either team doing that well.

I'd leave it

As things currently stand IMO both teams will be in the bottom six

If I had to put my life on a team finishing higher next season it would be Forest just because you can at least be a little optimistic where as Derby know exactly what we can expect from board and management

I reckon we'll finish above Derby as long as we buy a few defenders. And a winger. I'd take it.

Go on you know you want to! What's wrong with a bit of optimism?

Unless losing £20 will put you in the poor house of course...

Yeah id do it, I would hope we finish higher then Derby next year!

I have to do it to get back teh £30 I bet last year

If I was you, id increase the bet to 50, like taking candy from a baby, we're fu(ked

I won the previous year....

Good old GSE are really doing their best for you Igar.. Keep the faith or move to a pink seat

Pink seat id rather rip my arm out and beat myself with the soggy end.

You could stand on the top of the Clough stand with a noose around your neck and entertain the crowd by bungie jumping with a rope that is too long

Well, compared to last season:

* Our leading goalscorer wants away.
* Our only current international player, and only player with the aptitude to play more than one position sucessfully has already been sold.
* Our inspirational captain and best defender is out for the whole season.
* Rumours persist that our next-best defender will be sold for financial reasons.
* No sign at all of anyone being bought to replace any of the above.

We finished 14 points ahead of you last season. I think the changes I've listed above could easily cost us more than 14 points this time around, and that's not allowing for any improvement from Forest, which if you get some dosh is likely to happen.

Bookies have Forest 20/1 and Rams 50/1 for the title. Bookies ain't stupid. This would suggest taking a bet at evens is a no brainer. If you can be bothered it should be possible to take the bet, and then lay it off and lock-in a profit.

Yeah but we've got Steve Cotterill in charge

Thought you were his biggest fan sutton

I'm gonna lay off him a bit now.

I've made my point.

This will be a good exercise in self control.

Sorry what point was that?

Rip his hand off.

What chance did we have of finishing higher then Forest this time last year? The bookies got that one wrong didn't they.

Also, the Kuwaiti deal isn't done yet.

If that deal goes ahead then take the bet.

I see Shackell has gone for 1.1M then Iwas & MILF

If NLN hurries up he can get Chambers for nowt and £15K a week

Is he not going to the tractor boys!

Get the bet on I'm having a tenner on your lot to get promoted.

Webbo,

I'd rather play Barker with one leg than sign any of your present lot.

Trouble you are renowned for buying our rubbish. This one is slightly better than your most recent purchases.

and yes Ipswich are favourites

I wouldn't call Shackell rubbish or for that matter Ward or Bryson. Your lot punched well above their weight under Davies but after he left they found their true level

The bet is on £20 easy money!!
Wide boy I'm coming to you for all betting advice!! Are you a bookie??
