Hudds are third in the league and are there on merit,so why the extended odds.

I'd be tempted to lay some of that bet off if I were you. Not that I'm saying your won't win the cup or anything but you will need to beat two good teams to do so and by getting odds of 28-1 on a cup win, you could lay your tenner back off (on Betfair) at odds of 7.6 (currently) meaning that it is a no lose bet. If you've not got a Betfair account, that's even better since they offer you free bets with your first deposit!

If Hudds win the cup, you get £280 from the Bookies but lose £76 on Betfair = profit of £204.

If Hudds don't win the cup, you win £10 from Betfair but lose the £10 you staked at the bookies = NO LOSS at all!!

Of course you could lay more off to get a guaranteed return win or lose but as the odds are quite large the return wouldn't be great (about £23.70).

If you want to know more, send me a PM and I will try and explain.

Is that supposed to be Sintellins? :wink:

Anyway. What form? We've been up and down like a blessed yo-yo all season. It's taken me this long to adjust without feeling dizzy afterwards. So I have no idea which team will turn out against you on Sunday. Could be the creative team or the fantastic scrambling defence team or the can't keep hold of the ball clueless team. No idea which! However, given the number of Challenge Cups we have won lately and given that we have somehow managed to keep hold of the top spot so far this season, that puts us as favourites. But that's all.

I reckon you've got a great chance of not only beating Saints but doing so comfortably. But would anyone be surprised to see Saints outsmart the giddy Giants or for Wigan to beat them at Wembley if they get there?
In the 2006 semi Leeds were a far superior team on paper, it was a massive game for us make no mistake.

Hopefully history will repeat its self and we'll beat top of the league 'big club' opposition who have underestimated us!

Bookies had Oldham to beat Scholars by 56 tonight. Think it ended up where they won by 6 and that was only in the last minute. What do the bookies know? :wink:

Look at it this way...

We got to our first semi in years and got tanked
Then we got to another semi and won it in style...getting to our first final in years, and got tanked.


This time we go to the final, and win it in style - its just how it works ;)
