City look home and hosed to me in the Premiership...my only handicap bet was Bristol City +23 in the Championship which is obviously going well too!

I have edited my post because I had not put them in order.

I hope you are right but I think Man City are far from home and hosed. Villa are big dangers which is somewhat annoying as that is who I backed last year.

I know that Man City were big with some firms but when i did it they were only 2points or so better than Blackburn which is who i backed, couldnt decide between the 2 but am hoping Blackburn can pick there form back up.

I have been reviewing this and I wondered if anyone else who backed Man City is tempted to lay off.

Man City are about the 6/4 mark which I think is very short. I have had £20 @ 14/1 and stand to win what is for me a tidy sum.

I'm thinking of laying to lose £100 which will still leave £200 if Man City do top the handicap at the end of the season.

Layed some off and after watching the game yesterday I think Man City will have to settle for 4th place behind Arsenal, Everton and Villa.

I have also bet Man City to smaller stakes with WH.£10 @ 15-1 +38 points.At the moment the two dangers seem to be either Everton or Arsenal.

Not looking good now and the unbeaten home record looks like going on Saturday.

The handicap (with William Hill) as it stands after today's results...

94 Man City
93 Everton
93 Arsenal
92 Blackburn
91 Portsmouth

I am hoping the the Man City players will be desperate to sign Sven off with a win as I keep reading in the papers that they want him to stay.

Couldn't have been more wrong if I tried! Luckily I layed off on Betfair when they were just starting to struggle for results after an amazing start. I was taking an enormous chance though as the handicaps are slightly different.

Full table with Hills...

Total Team Handicap Actual Points
96 Everton 31 65
96 Arsenal 13 83
94 Man City 39 55
92 Blackburn 34 58
91 Portsmouth 34 57
91 Aston Villa 31 60
88 Wigan 48 40
87 Man Utd 0 87
87 Chelsea 2 85
84 Liverpool 8 76
83 West Ham 34 49
83 Birmingham 48 35
82 Middlesbrough 40 42
81 Fulham 45 36
76 Sunderland 37 39
76 Reading 40 36
74 Bolton 37 37
71 Newcastle 28 43
67 Tottenham 21 46
61 Derby 50 11
