I don't usually bet other than a couple of quid on a game by game basis at St. Mary's so am a COMPLETE dunce when it comes to "real" betting.

 

However... 365 are offering 8/1 on Pompey to finish bottom. I think the odds were better a few weeks ago but given that I'm confident they will be in administration shortly and start on -9 it seems like a good bet anyway.

 

From the 365 site they are offering £100 for new customers on signing up. By the looks of it they aren't offering a free £100 bet though, just a second bet to the same value of my first one.

 

Ideally I would like to effectively double the odds by placing the bet and then using the "free bet" to place another identical one. Does this work or will they catch me out by making me wait for the result of the first bet before I can place the second one (or some other catch)?

 

Any suggestions appreciated

Usually with free bet offers, the free bet either doesn't become available until the original bet has been settled, or you have to use it on a different market.

 

There used to be a betting forum for this kind of query, but I can't spot it anymore...

Paddy Power were offering 22/1 a couple of weeks ago - I'm not convinced they'll be *that* bad, so 9/2 for them to be relegated (in any of the bottom 3 positions) is better value IMO.

Portsmouth are 11/1 to finish bottom with Paddy Power
