Incognito Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 So a majority of people don't support the CDU? Pleasing. The Sky News coverage earlier showed polling results of "who should be in charge of x", with 'x' being matters like tax powers and foreign policy etc. On every occasion the Scottish Government had a comfortable majority. This highlights just how toxic the word 'independence' has become sadly. There is no doubt that a majority of people in Scotland can be persuaded to vote yes, they just have to realise that they do actually want it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 Lex in being obsessed with odds shocker. 5/1 wont last so get on it. Someone said that about 4/1 aswell. They were right! About it not lasting of course, not about the getting on it part. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 I had two 5/1 winners yesterday. 240 back from a £20 total stake. True story wee Lex my man. Nice one, how much you got on yes winning? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lex Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 Don't need a bet on it, I will get enough joy out of the outcome when it happens. Joyous scenes. That made me laugh Hope you enjoy it! Not rather have some of the bookies money to pay for the celebrations though? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingsoverperthshire Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Someone said that about 4/1 aswell. They were right! About it not lasting of course, not about the getting on it part. If 5/1 reflects the chances of a YES victory then that's about the same as Chelsea winning the EPL. Absolutely all to play for and if I was pricing the odds I would go 10/11 Yes 11/10 No 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 (edited) If 5/1 reflects the chances of a YES victory then that's about the same as Chelsea winning the EPL. Absolutely all to play for and if I was pricing the odds I would go 10/11 Yes 11/10 No What's your maximum bet on those no odds? Of course your comparison with Chelsea winning is totally invalid. There's 20 theoretical possibilities for that and what, 4 realistic possibilities. There's 2 horses in this race.

wingsoverperthshire Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 What's your maximum bet on those no odds? I'm not a bookmaker my idiotic onionist friend. I believe you were a ba' hair away from asking me for a direct bet. Should I take 5's from a credited bookie or evens from a seething bitter onionist? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lex Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 That there is everything to play for. You keeping clutching at straws though. Interesting interpretation. How far do they need to drift before you concede everything is not to play for? How can someone who supports the campaign who has been ahead from day 1 be clutching at straws? We're ahead now as we were on day 1, but our odds keep coming in . I don't need crumbs of comfort, i wish the referendum was tomorrow. I can't wait for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 The recent poll ( from a totally random selection of people ) showed that NO was ahead by 11 ( ELEVEN ) people. May aswell call it a day now YES voters. What about the 2 polls that have been done on here for instance? Also the comments on various news sites FB ( BBC/STV ) etc and the general reaction from people I know it seems to be massively in the YES direction. Although I wouldn't be silly enough to think that the things I've seen and people I've spoke too are the overall general consensus of the Scottish public. Stop trolling. And expect to see the odds posted in this thread in September 2014 much closer pal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingsoverperthshire Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Ha shame, i was! Can't get anywhere near that anywhere.. Your odds not mine... You have anything on yes? I will be putting something on Yes, but only a sum that wont overly bother me if we lose. Perhaps £100. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet, the poll you just posted shows that a majority of people are dissatisfied with the CDU. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realise that the poll you have posted shows that less than 50% are voting no? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
