The other day Rudy said we were 250-1 to win the league.

I put £10 on at 150-1.

Decent odds for a team on a roll.

U.K. based fans should be charged a premium to watch on Ifollow and it should be more than the turnstile price. 

Should sky not do the same then?

Fuck me, you lot wanna see what Ifollow was like right at the start

I’ve no real opinion on that.

Ah right, yeah, nothing a VPN won't sort though 

I did a questionnaire sent by them a few weeks ago about viewing habits and all that, so I reckon if enough people said they'd use it moving forward they'll do it

It wasn’t just audio Zico, you could get video as well but only for games not kicking off at 3pm on a Saturday, or on Sky, unless you were abroad when you could get every match. I don’t see any reason why next season should be any different to that. There are also a few clubs who aren’t subscribed to iFollow and you may not get them also.

Couldn't expect one lot to be restricted and not the other.

Can pay a tenner or so for a day's viewing and get three or four games with now TV.

Comparatively ifollow is quite costly at a tenner per game; making it even more expensive would wipe them out I reckon.

I’d expect overseas subscribers to remain at a tenner.  You have to protect home attendances hence a premium price that’s more than the pay at turnstile.

This last 12 months have changed everything in terms of habits for everyone 

For all the folk who can't wait to get back in the grounds, there'll be plenty who would rather not 

Ifollow would be foolish to not offer games like in the UK if they are able to do so 

Otherwise, VPN

As I said, same would have to apply to sky. 

Anyway, apart from perhaps the middle of winter, those that want to go will do. Those that don't won't, but might pay to watch at home, so worth having the option. 

As things are, I dont think attendances have been adversely affected by sky etc.

Don’t think you have to treat sky same as ifollow.

I cba explaining why i think the comparison is crackers, but i think its crackers

Except its not.

Both show games for less that admission at the turnstiles. Pure and simple.

You can be as clever or stupid about it all you want, but that's what they do.

To suggest one would have to increase prices so as not to affect crowds is utterly daft and would be met with legal action swiftly.

 

I wasn’t sure where to put this. But here is as good a place as any, because if (when) we do go up, this lad has made a massive contribution. Considering his horrific first spell here (which is documented well in the article ... Freedman you wanker...) and the grief he was getting at the start of the season, his turnaround and partnership with Santos has perhaps been the biggest factor of our fantastic form since January. 

Well done Alex Maldini 👏

He’s been absolutely superb, when you have a defensive partnership and you describe them as undroppable it makes everything else so much easier. 
I’d love him to bury a header in the top corner to win us the game today.

At the risk of repeating myself, we are going up.

Santos and Baptiste double as we win 2-0 would be wonderful 

£50 paid out from Bet365 for finishing in the top 7. It’s a start 👍 

Baptiste was different class today 

In response to the original question

Cheltenham play Carlisle midweek, and you would expect them to win, but Carlisle are still scrapping for the play offs and could get a point at least.

Then they play away at Newport who are also scrapping for a play off place.

Cambridge away at Harrogate, their form has been a bit hit and miss.

Finishing top is very unlikely, but notnout of the question. 

Exeter are also scrapping for a play of place and will be a threat, but that might help us.

Win first and foremost, take the pressure off, and who knows come the last game.

And Cheltenham are all but promoted based on goal difference, so they could be on the beach now.

Hmm, not sure I agree with this - despite winning last night our chances of top 3 have gone down 5%:

46.1% chance of Top 3

0.8% 1st

7.0% 2nd

38.2% 3rd

77 points gives a 41.6% chance of promotion

78 points gives a 62.8% chance

89.1% chance of Top 3

4.2% 1st

28.9% 2nd

56.0% 3rd

This is really where it gets fucking odd:

77 points gives a 65.7% chance of promotion but

78 points gives a 48.8% chance of promotion

79 obviously is 100%
