Colchester 1 v Swindon 1

[crewebacca]

Could have been better for us but overall positive just the same. C.O.Y.R!

Means the draw now keeps us up.

We are now 10/1 to be relegated which is the best odds for some time !

I'm not a gambling man but if someone asked me how much I'd pay to ensure we stayed up it would be fair amount. Perhaps worth putting that on the 10/1 bet. That way at least there is some consolation if we were to go through the trap door.

I was hoping for a Swindon win but a draw is not too bad, Swindon were a bit lucky some poor finishing by Colchester could have condemned them to league 2 football. The one positive is that we don't need a win to survive, a draw will be enough to avoid relegation.

Agree good odds I bet some of the Directors have taken it up especially with our Minus Goal difference,which still could be the difference

[GeraldHattrick]

Bigger odds if you bet on the matches, so Bradford, Crawley and Notts County to win is 18/1 (would send us down I believe)' then swap Crawley / County for Colchester it'd up in the 30/1 odds as Colchester are 4/1.

Think your right about the odds however it's slightly more complicated...

For crewe to go down the following needs to happen..

Bradford win @2/1

And 2 of the following 3 need to happen
Crawley winds @ 2/1
Colchester wins @5/1
Notts county wins @ 13/8

So there are 3 bets ..bra, cra, col...bra, col, nc...bra cra, nc

Odds are 51/1, 22/1, 47/1...level stakes to return £11 would require an outlay of about 95p so you would be saving a bit Ie 5p for every 100p
