Betting on transfers

Stupid I know ...

But when I saw Alex Song's snapchat of him in London last week, I was adamant he was signing for us and stuck £100 on him joining WHU at 9/4

Then ...

Stuck £150 on Downing to stay at West Ham at odds of 4/1!!

Downings odds have come down since to 6/4 but still ...

Payout is September 3rd for these but we will see! Getting as many Twitter updates from Jack Sullivan on direct message! COYI

What are the latest odds on Lee Trundle & SWP signing for us?

SWP has been in line for his medical for about 5 years.

That's where they'll. Make their money TeV

The odds will always be in their favour and by not listing loaned to west ham - that's exactly where they cash in. Look at the two odds 8/1 & 1/4 - meaning if those were the only two outcomes then everybody could make a profit.

One thing I've learnt from betting against a bookmaker is that if something looks too good to be true - then it probably is.
Betfair exchange has some markets to capitalise on though, if that's your game.

I would double check that TeVaz cos I reckon loans do count.

Re: Betting on transfers

Just seen on skybet jenkinson is 1/4 to sign for us ( loans do not count ) . 8/1 to stay at Arsenal ! Does that mean if he is loaned to us he has actually stayed at Arsenal and they would therefore payout at 8/1 ?
