Pains me to say it, but this is the only time we'll see us on top of the pile this season.

They are terrible odds. I'd have us at 12/1 at least, no players, new manager, the worst BoD in the whole game, the worst directors in any UK organisation (eernie and dirtbox)so we haven't the best of starts. If I had money to burn, 12 or 14/1 would just about represent value for money.
But as bookmakers come a close second to the thieving investment bankers in the daylight robbery league, it's of no surprise that they attempt to mug punters with skinny odds like 4/1. b'stards ( bookmakers and bankers).

Every year the bookies make the Gas one of the "Promo-Fav's" and every year I ask myself WHY? Coz the odds are based as much on how much money is put on, as the chances of it actually happening. The more we outnumber the fans of other clubs in our league the more likely we are to be favourites, regardless of the mess we are in. I'd agree with that if I knew of any Gasheads actually believing that we will get promotion. So if none of us are betting on us, then it must be others who think the Barcelona of non-league are bound to bounce straight back. Although actually, there is one Gashead who believes, but sadly Richhertford has chosen to join Gaschat and not here. Which is a shame if he wants to spread the word and convert the cynics.
