aaah. nice.I get it now. I think. So if Maxi puts 2 he will get 7? Right? Hope he loses.
What did he say?
I just like posting about details sometimes, rather than follow someone else's understanding of what the "most important considerations" are.
Fair play.0.4 United.
Basically just said Sanchez should go to City. I can't post the video, but its on the BTsports twitter
Isn't anywhere near 10. saaypundit can make three posts per day in the mains and each post has to be approved by a mod.
Man Utd may have to pay over £10m in agent fees to sign Alexis Sanchez ahead of Man City | @Matt_Law_DT

Rio was talking about Alexis, and where to go. If Alexis wants trophies this season he will go to City. If he wants money he will stay at Arsenal, because of some payment at the end of the season. Rio wasn't happy talking about it.
Aye don’t want to copy paste like you’ve said but there was an article about this about 4-5 years ago that explained that the “transfers betting market” is absolutely minuscule in relative terms. Over the summer it’s worth something daft like £30k to each betting company. Hence why someone throwing £500 on a transfer happening locks the market.
It’s too open to abuse. It takes a lot more to fix a competetive match than for somebody to know a transfer is going through ahead of the press and lay some money on it. Thousands of transfers happen every summer, why would the bookies leave themselves open to people laying money on something they are certain will happen?
They will accept a couple of quid here and there because it’s speculative, who is going to lay £5 on something they are certain of? It’s the big bets they just won’t accept.
im sticking 100 on city to ease the potential pain
No. You'd lose money if the odds was below 1.0. It's the number you multiply your bet with to calculate the return if you win.
You would get your stake back + the winnings on 0.4, that's how you worked out the other two odds anyway.

Looks he knows something not good!
Nope that's not how decimal odds work. They work in the way that if you win the bet, the return is basically your bet multiplied with the odds. Therefore an odds of 0.40 would see you lose 60% of your bet even if you won the bet.
Saw Rios comments on BT Sport, not very inspiring for United fans.
Thanks for being so helpful by posting them here.
That is correct. In a decimal system the odds can't be below 1, hence 1.4 is the correct way to put it. For example, if you put 10 bucks and you win, you will get 10 * 1.4 in return (14 bucks).
So, basically from a financial point of view, it's like this. Alexis will get a bucket load of cash in any case.
Some poor bugger in here might get few pounds for a night out if he gets it right with the bookies.

Im shit at math. can confirm.
Thank you for this. British odds are killing me.
@C'est Moi Cantona you're right though in that it should've been that from the way I calculated it. I made an error. When you convert the odds, you have to convert the fraction to a decimal number and add 1. So the corrected odds are:
1.40 United
4.00 City
5.50 Arsenal
1.40 United
4.00 City
5.50 Arsenal
I may have used google to assist, I'm no rain man myself...
They are wrongThank you for this. British odds are killing me.
, I corrected them in the post above. But yeah no worries those odds are killing me too.Is it true?
In that case we'll have to wait a bit longer because we have a long weekend holiday here (MLK).
Tbf, the fact no one on the internet seems to understand how betting odds work does help explain the online gambling boom somewhat.

He’s talking about profit so he is right. You got your other odds wrong.
Reasonable comments by Rio.
You need some serious guarantees from the owners and manager to be sure we'll challenge City in the immediate future.

Thank you for this. British odds are killing me.
Just divide the numbers and add 1. It's very simple. 2/5 would be 2/5 + 1 = 1.4
Rio certainly didn’t have the air of a man whose team was about to sign Sanchez, for what it’s worth.
Fair play, we were both technically wrong, I hadn't realised you had to add the +1 for the decimal, I am used the traditional bookies odds which don't do this, anyway more to the point I doubt on this occasion the odds mean that much.
How would Rio know who we're signing?
Why didn't he mention the fact that Alexis wouldn't play every single game for City? Seems like he tries very hard not to come across as biased.
