2018/19 Footy Season - Ante-Post Bets
Each season, prior to the big kick off, i place a number of ante-post bets which will, hopefully, give me an interest almost throughout the entire season. Just spent about an hour and a half studying the departures and arrivals both in the UK and further afield. This acca is a result of that study;
Prem; Chelsea NOT to be in top 4
Champ; Middlesbrough promotion
League 1; Scunthorpe promotion
League 2; Notts Co promotion
Scots Prem; Rangers (w/o Celtic)
German Bundesliga; Dortmund (w/o Bayern)
It Ser A; Juventus
Sp La Liga; Barcelona
Port Primera; Benfica
Dutch Ered; PSV
@ just under 4,850/1 a fiver could realise £24,253 - which would be well worth waiting 40 odd weeks for :-)

Those predictions suggest that Rotherham will avoid relegation but I know some Rotherham fans who think that would be too much to really hope for ;-)

That might depend upon which part of the country you're from. The Oxford English Dictionary has a 1966 reference to 'footee' from 'Lern Yerself Scouse', so maybe it's a northern thing. (I'm reasonably sure that I heard the term used in the early 1970s around Sheffield, when I was doing my teacher training).

Jackdaw, are you just having a pop at my vocabulary because i've done your near neighbours (and arch enemies) the 'Boro for promotion? :-) Must admit, though, i really only use it when typing. Maybe it does emanate from Liverpool - we do seem to have quite a few 'Mickey's) in and around the Burnley area :-))

Gillingham relegated from League One
Yeovil relegated from League 2
Livingston to finish bottom of Scottish Prem
