Looking at the Premier League winner market for this season, I see Manchester City - who are currently trading at 60/65 - have been backed as low as 3 and as high as 990. That's quite a range, although the 3.0 was almost certainly an error and the true low is 40. Interesting days ahead I feel. Liverpool must be worried. Once they fall out of the Big Four and lose the Champions League income, it's a slippery slope. Forget that new stadium boys! See if you can negotiate a ground-share arrangement with Tranmere Rovers...
The real reason I'm looking at this market is because I'm seeing a big reaction these days anytime either Chelsea or Manchester United fail to win. I've not looked, but presumably this would be a way to circumvent the "SUSPENDED" any time one of these teams falls behind or loses a lead. Anyone try this?

- I have had a life-long interest in sports and after studying Pure Mathematics with Statistics at secondary school, have been fascinated by odds and probability. The first system I came up with was a simple one - back the favourite and double up after a loss until a winner. Simple enough in theory, and I told my Dad about it. Not being a betting man himself, he ran it by some of his colleagues, and came home to tell me that it wouldn’t work because a long losing run would mean that the bank would be empty. Then there was always the possibility that the winner would be returned at odds-on, meaning that the total returns would not match the outlay. Not what a ten year old wants to hear! Only slightly daunted, I then went on a search for the Holy Grail, the secret to riches that I knew was out there somewhere. Finally in 2004 I stumbled across an article about Betting Exchanges and four years later I was able to make a steady profit.
Used to do it all the time, but keep it quiet.
