    After a 3-0 win today, here are the very latest relegation odds:

    Scunthorpe 1/33

    Maidstone 1/3
    Torquay 8/13
    Gateshead 8/11

    Oldham 13/8

    Aldershot 3/1
    Dorking 7/2

    They are 97% confident that we will be relegated.

    Is it the news of Smurfwait lurking in the shadows?

    Is HMRC about to trigger administration?

    Any theories guys?

    If we somehow managed to win our next six matches, the odds would change dramatically. Bookies can see the mess we are in now (yeah thanks Swanny), that is why we are such long odds on to get relegated. 🤬

    After last weekends game against Chesterfield we were 1/12 ON.

    Then, when the ‘news’ about Begbies Traynor came out at the start of last week we were eased out to 2/11 ON.

    To be propelled from 2/11 ON way out to 1/33 ON following a 3-0 win – it would suggest that something dramatic is about to occur?

    I’ll keep an eye on the bookies data – maybe they’ve miscalculated, misinput the data or had a ‘glitch’?

    What are the odds for staying up if so drastic for going down. Swann would have a piece of that and sell surely?

    I can’t find any offers on clubs avoiding relegation in the NL.

    Top 7 Finish:
    Oldham 50/1
    Gateshead 150/1
    Maidstone – no offer
    Torquay – no offer
    Scunthorpe – no offer

    Top 12 Finish
    Barnet 1/20
    Bromley 1/8
    Dagenham 1/6
    FC Halifax Town 4/7
    Wealdstone 4/6
    Eastleigh 6/4
    Altrincham 7/4
    York City 2/1
    Yeovil Town 3/1
    Dorking 3/1

    Oldham Athletic 4/1

    Aldershot Town 6/1

    Torquay United 8/1

    Maidenhead United 8/1

    Gateshead 10/1

    Maidstone United 25/1

    Scunthorpe United – No Offer

    Odds are from BetVictor

    They also have us at 1/33 ON to be relegated.

    Something is afoot.

    I guess we’ll just have to watch this (and other) space.

    Agreed and no one has stated that any rules have been broken.

    Maybe Mrs Swann stuck a few millions on us to be relegated.

    Yes the bookies do know something we don’t, that’s why they always win and the “mug punters” lose.

    Heard recently about a real mug losing millions and not even knowing he had even placed the bets.

    I bet when he learned of this folly he took off faster than an Apollo space rocket.

    Luckily football is played out on a pitch not inside a betting shop!

    Unbelievably 2 iron fans have put 20 pounds on scunny to finish in the top 7 at 1000/1 others with smaller sums, some even putting money on promotion at 4500/1, for f sake we’ve won 5 games this season and only 1away game in over a year get a grip lads.

    Similar odds to Leicester winning the PL. Daft I know but if you can afford to lose a couple of quid might as well. I put £1 on Berwick to beat Rangers in the cup about 20 years ago 35/1 on a single match (they lost 8 nil😂)

    You were hoping for a history repeat Ironawe when you laid that bet.
