Ladbrokes have priced up a market on which club will be the first to deducted points this season. The cheeky swines. Any here's the odds...

Shamrock Rovers 3/1
Drogheda United 5/1
Bohemians 6/1
Derry City 7/1
St Patricks Athletic 7/1
Cork City 8/1
Waterford Utd 8/1
Galway Utd 10/1
Bray Wanderers 12/1
Longford Town 12/1
Sligo Rovers 12/1
UCD 16/1

----

Can't see how Longford are a bigger price than any. Might be worth a speculative punt as there's no option for "no club"

I heard about this a few days ago and I thought it was a pish take :o - very surprised that Longford ain't favourites. I'm sure the board of any club when they hear that they may be getting a points deduction will be straight down to the bookies :D

I presume this is first premier division club to be deducted points? I would have gone with Shels otherwise.

Would have been a nice way for Shels to get out of debt otherwise - gamble Tolka on them getting it. Bohs would be watching their back after that one.

Doesn't seem to be on their website with the other LoI markets. Have the Dodge Dollars on the Flancare-less Accounting forced a book pull? :)

Even so, i'd still throw a few quid on a first division team.
It's a crazy world, this eL business.

Longford deducted 6 points (http://www.eircomloi.ie/news_item_91.htm)

The first * of the season.

Looking at those odds again looks like Ladbrokes have them upside down aside from UCD.
