Top Flight It's 13:45, time to watch Russia V Slovakia now boys.

What result do we want? A draw would be a good result for England, wouldn't it?

Anyone know the bookies odds on us for relegation, promotion, top 10 finish, title win, FA Cup win etc etc?

Might be worth a small bet on relegation as an insurance policy to ease the pain next season.

Relegation was priced 8 to 1 last time I checked. In my humble opinion our risk of getting relegated is about 45% at the moment. Therefore a price of 8 to 1 looks good value.

I haven't placed such a bet yet because I find it impossible to bet against Reading. It will ruin my enjoyment of the season. I would rather bet for a more positive type of outcome. I think it definitely makes sense to bet on our relegation when the price is 8/1.

Best prices are 10-1 for relegation, ditto for promotion

I stuck £20 on us to go down @ 10/1.
