Hey Brendan, surely we can get better odds elsewhere?
PP gives short odds on everything!
Anyone know what Cashmans are offering?
�20 on City can't be a bad bet at any odds.
It's now or never lads.

there's no value in any of those odds, i know Longford are improving but only 10-1. not really going to tempt anyone into Paddy Power is it.

I cannot believe that Shams are 11/1. Shows the progresswe are making. Might be a good each way bet.

i agree they're improving, but I'm not throwing money down on them to win it at ten to one.

Having a say in the title is one thing but winning it is another.
Let's face it, the odds will/should change when squads take shape as we get closer to the start of the season.
With St. Pat's on the brink of bankruptcy and Shels offloading players faster than Carlisle United, the "Power" may shift next season but it WON�T shift north and it WON�T shift West!
10/1 is too short on Longford.

$hels at nearly 2/1 and Bohs at nearly 3/1 sound good enough to me.

I suppose you are allowed to follow a team in the Premier Division now that your boys are in the lesser league.
Will we see you in a Shels shirt this season?
The Champions League will be too much for Shels and they'll struggle with the proposed venue change.

Yes, thinking that a team has a better than 30% chance of winning the league means that I must follow them.
