anyone having a bet tonight -- 2.8 on betfair --- value ? (n/m) (NCFC) - 1902, Aug 11, 10:20:34
- Don't get decimal... are you talking just under 3/1 for the win? (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 10:26:49
  - Not as good as that: 2.8 is 9/5 according to this. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Aug 11, 10:28:47

      - Ah, so 2.8 is actually 1.8 and then you can convert to a fraction! (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 10:32:09
        
        That's how I do it in my head, take one off it, then it's that over 1. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Aug 11, 10:34:15
  - If only we had a self-proclaimed Betfair expert on this board, they'd put you right (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Aug 11, 10:28:43
  - nope, nearer 7/4 (n/m) (NCFC) - shoddy, Aug 11, 10:27:35
    - Shit odds... club's a joke. you can't get 8/1 on the 1-0 though. (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 10:31:13
      - I meant you CAN get 8/1 for the 1-0 to NCFC. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 10:32:51
        
        yeah. You'd fancy us to keep a clean sheet tonight (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Aug 11, 10:33:28
        
        No. I might propose 1-2 AET. I'm largely going to ignore all forms of communc (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 10:38:22
        
        ...communication until about 9.30pm. Can't put myself through it. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 10:38:53
    - Not far off. (n/m) (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Aug 11, 10:29:12
- I let you know at 10pm if that is value. (NCFC) - shoddy, Aug 11, 10:22:56
  - yeah - think I'll pass - could be anything tonight - very unpredictable (n/m) (NCFC) - 1902, Aug 11, 10:24:35
    - I'm going with Jim Nasium... 0-1. Perhaps even AET. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 10:27:16
