    Our chance of going down in percentage terms

    As most are probably aware, I often look to the bookies for an unbiased (apart from their 10% profit margin) opinion of where we really stand. A fair few bookies are offering 5/1 about us being relegated, which equates to a 16.7% chance of going down, therefore an 83.7% chance of staying up (in reality a bit less if you account for the profit margin). I wish I could share their optimism, because I rate our chances of survival way less than that. So what does everyone else think if you had to put a percentage chance on our survival?

    Very much depends on who we appoint for the next 3 months and the Janny-Tranny window. I'll go for 50/50 at the mo.

    30%

    What worries is that Ardley is favourite in the betting (worse than being Tangoed) because he comes off a terrible run with Wimbledon of 10 defeats in 12. That's not what you should choose in our situation.

    Janny Tranny in midfield would be a good move

    We have to face it - Notts are in a real battle for survival. Before saturday I'd have said better than 50/50. After saturday I'd say 60/40 in favour of relegation.
