Ladbrokes have confirmed they received a bet of £189k on Harry Redknapp to be next England manager from a dog called Rosie.

 

Did they pay the tax up front?

As it says on the can.

Never gonna happen but kinda nice that there is dome acknowledgement of doing s good job here

 

66-1 ... surely that means there's 65 better choices before him ..but you know what bookies are like ..they know some people will bet on anything.

 

what are the odds on David Cameron?

I wonder what the odds would be for Adkins to be next Spurs mananger though? That is more of a likelihood than England, assuming Redknapp fools the FA into thinking "he's the one"

Betting on the "next Manager" market is the biggest rip off sports betting. If I and one or two others put a big bet on Adkins, his odds would come down. This would then be all over Sky sports news, meaning more mugs will place money on him, bringing the odds down, meaning ect ect ect. Sky seem to want to fuel the fire on this sort of market and how many times are bets closed on particular candidates before somebody else gets the job? How can you bet on something that is not chance. It is a procees that involves too many people to risk your money on. For all we know the FA could have a candidate lined up already, just waiting to cross the i's and dot the t's, yet people are still betting on it. It's like having a bet on a football match that was played last week, but you dont know the result, but plenty do.
