Skybet

[I'm no cynic but...]

I've just had a look at next season's Man City Specials on the Skybet site. To win a trophy...any trophy...City are quoted at a paltry 8/13 so it looks as if the bookies are expecting our beloved team to be in with a shout somewhere. But what catches my eye is a League Cup/FA Cup double, probably the easiest trophies to win, in which we are being offered odds of 28/1. I think there's quite some value with this one.

When was last time we did anything in league cup, plus its too intense come Feb/march with 2 leg Semi/final and FA CUP games as well as premier league games, and who knows start of second phase of CL?

But we haven't won the league cup since 1976....

When was the last team that did this? When did the last team get to both finals? Not being negative but it doesn't happen often though I agree they are quite attractive odds.

Why not put your stake on City to qualify in our first game in the League Cup and keep carrying your winnings onto each game in both competitions?

Obviously dependant on who we draw but if we won both competitions I'll almost guarentee you'd end up with a lot more than 28 X your stake.

Its impossible to guarentee that
If you would of backed us to qualify from every round in the f a cup alone this season,you would of been lucky to get 2/1 or 5/2 at the end
But you could of got 5 or 6/1 at the beginning
