I don't know much about betting, but I assume that we're as high as 4th favourites to win the title not because Betfair know we've got The Beard coming back, but because, compared to most other teams, we've had a lot of bets placed on us. So the bookies are trying to limit their exposure by shortening the odds. The same would also be true, but much more so, of Pompey. A bit of a basket-case of a club at the moment, and surely no-one's tip to win the league in reality?

Main reason at this stage though is based on the size of the clubs and the clubs that went down from league one are at the topof the market. Obviously lliabilities on each one will impact the price as well.

Yeah, we were one of the favourites the year we came down when we appointed Uncle Buck. It doesn't mean much at this stage.

Dunno and don't care really just glad we're not in it. To be fair to Grimsby they looked alright and weren't filthy bas(ards like Eastleigh, FG etc were and they're a proper football club so I suppose I'd like to see them back in the league but I'm just happy we ain't still down there.

I think Eastleigh will win it personally. Followed by one of either Tranmere or Forest Green.. 8/1 about Eastleigh represents good value I reckon..
