QuoteIs there anything each way? Pat's top three mightn't be too bad; Bohs' odds are ridiculous if meltdown is as imminent as it seems, and I reckon they're stronger than Dundalk and maybe Fungus too.
Thought it might be of interest to some...

Once again. odds given by bookmakers are not equivalent to the chances of it happening.
The odds are designed to make the bookmaker as much as possible, nothing more, nothing less.
My own view is that Derry is probably the only value there (assuming e/w odds of 1/4 the price, first 3)

Fairy nuff.
Until all squads are complete, I dont see much relevance in these odds in term of who is the strongest, apart from 1/Rovers 2/ Sligo. I would agree Pats are smiliar to Dundalk, Fingal too appear to be getting a side together so they wont be far off both either. Bohs 3rd favs is the obvious one sticking out a mile, they will drop to below Derry once their squad is announced.
#DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), first Irish club to win points in a group stage in Europe (2016).
How Bray can be behind both Galway and UCD at this point is just lunacy.
Derry look the only value there for me.
Pats and Dundalk worth an interest bet too i reckon.
In reality only Rovers can beat Rovers this season. (ooh cryptic)
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
Rovers 2/1 with Boyles, free money
Do you not like the 9/4 with Paddy Powers?
Got Dundalk E/W at 20/1 on PaddyPower minutes after they signed Byrne and Quigley. Real value.
Lets redefine what it means to heal
I don't think those 2 signings make up fr last years shortcomings (and the players that have left)

No man, I have a system
It's hard to look past either of the Rovers' but Dundalk seem a good outside bet.
CSFShels, like a good few of our own fans got the early 20/1 that was on offer for Dundalk.Its not a huge market so some €50's/€100's on the nose or eachway,coupled with the signings of Byrne and Quigley ate into the price fairly quickly.If we can secure some good CB signings i can see it coming down again.
BTW the Setanta cup odds went the same way,Dundalk opened 20/1 and are now 14's.
Dundalk peoples likes their bets
