The Charlton Bet Of The Season ?

RaplhMilneRaplhMilne
in General Charlton
Ok, I know we are in danger of letting one (or 2 ) swallows make a spring, but is our recent turn in form worth a gamble.

After tomorrow night we do not have an away game against any team in the top 11 (highest left is Sheff weds).
At home only Bournmouth in the top 8 are left to come to the valley.

We have 14 games left and, 12 of those against teams who are as average as us.

SO WHATS THE CHANCE OF A TOP HALF FINISH

WE HAVE 39 POINTS

READING 40 POINTS 5/4
LEEDS 41 POINTS 11/8
SHEFF WEDS 40 Points 7/4

CHARLTON 4/1 (Prices Bet Victor)

Surely with our upturn in form, new signings, and our run in we can finish12th or higher and take the money !

Or for the completely rose tinted that it's a new dawn, 66/1 for top 6 finish.

    I have a tenner on a top half finish which I put on pre-season.

    I also have a tenner on Igor to be our highest goalscorer. I think that's at 4/1. Reza was evens :blush:

    I'm in for grand if we finish top-half so you can probably guarantee we will finish 13th.

    It's 66-1 for a very good reason.

    No harm in puting a couple of quid on it.

    Probably best off waiting until after Derby, but also sticking a little wager in the mean time on us to beat them (or draw no bet). But that's just a guess.

    Hoping for a top 6 finish as I had a tenner @ 200/1 pre season. Rose coloured specs I know - but you never know

    Just Placed £25 bet victor top half finish 4-1. They give free £25 bet for new customers so further £25. Therefore will return total £225 for initial cost of £25. Worth a punt I reckon.

    200/1 for us to finish top six? Presumably this was with Phantom Bet?!

    Bizarrely had exactly the same thought on Sunday.
    Doubled mine up with Gillingham to finish in the top half as well- they were 6/4 and on a roll with their ambitious manager

    I feel like a mug that I only got 13/2 after 3 games.

    Been backing Leicester to finish bottom 2/1 and Charlton to make top 12 at 9/4 and 7/2 in the last week.

    So after winning 5 from 6 at

    Brentford 3/1
    Huddersfield 2/1
    Forest 9/4
    Cardiff 18/5

    Thanks I've collected on them all.
    The book makers must have relalised we are a different side from early Feb. But no, home to Blackburn we are 2/1, another benefit afternoon. COYR

    Well, after looking like it might be comfortable, the turn down in form is a concern. Currently we are 4/5 (bet vic) top half and 11/10 (sky) bottom half. So I have laid out £170 to collect £800 a profit of £530. Do I lay some back at the 11/10 to at least cover my stake ! Dilemma

    Tonight's results could have a big affect on these prices, an Addicks win, an Leeds, Cardiff, Brum, Wendies loss could see us at 5/2 for bottom half and 8/15 for top.

    What would you do ?

    Personally, id stick with the original bet rather than risk cutting my losses.

    The real question is, can YOU afford to lose £170? If not then hedge away.

    Have faith, Ralph, have faith. I wish I was sat on a £170 punt on a top half finish. At 11/10 to hedge it's money down the loo isn't it? (DYOR obviously!)
