[agchristie]

100-1! They are having a larf!

More like 10,000-1

Ladbrokes are offering 50/1 for Leicester to win the Champions League:

agachristie put a quid on for me if its 10,000/1, lol

[agchristie]

50/1 is outrageous.

[piggynose]

3.0 not a bad start so far

"It's impossible to win the Champions League," said Italian Ranieri. "There are so many big teams. To win it we have to write another fairytale."

[piggynose]

remember wee greece winning the euros more than 20 years ago, at 500/1, so not impossible, just a little difficult

Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it might come true

I seem to remember when my local team, Ipswich, won the FA Cup. Nobody gave them any chance at all of going on to win the UEFA Cup but Bobby Robson's lads went on to prove them all wrong!

[ToraToraTora]

well if they do Gary Lineker would have to present Match of the day in the altogether!

Betting odds and actual likelihood of winning are two different things.
50-1 though sounds about right.
They've got a pretty soft group, and could well get to the quarter finals if they top it. And then anything can happen, tho 2-legged games against the likes of Real Madrid would be a big ask.
