Surprisingly short odds there though it's probably just scabby bookmakers I suppose.

Someone told me earlier 100/1 Celtic to beat Barca, worth putting down a fiver.

f that wording is directly from Ladbrokes, ancd the word "competitive" hasn't been specified, Rovers (and every other team) should bet 100,000 grand on it and then set up the inaugural "Tallaght Cup", featuring Rovers and one other team, which play 1 game.

It's competitive.

16/1 A date to be announced for the amalgamation of the Irish League and the League of Ireland

IFA and FAI bet 100,000 each on it, then announce a date for the amalgamation of the leagues.

Collect the money, then announce a few months later that the plans have been canceled.

Thought that too. 25/1 for an Irish club to reach the group stages of the CL. Ridiculous.
