English Premier League 2023-24 Thread

Thread worth a read, what an awful look. If you don't want to read a bunch of tweets this is a good tl;dr

Mainly waiting for major sites to release markets so I can try to derive a vig free fair line. Ill see if I can figure something out this weekend.

Where's the fun in that? The exchanges pricing markets up early takes all the skill out of gambling. Just ask the uk-based poster that you're friendliest with to place the bet for you if you want to back at bookies odds. If you make an offer, I feel like you should include the price that you had in mind. It's only a non-binding starting point for negotiation.

While I've got your attention; it's would have/should have/could have not would of/should of/could of.

Rip Kevin Campbell. Too early :(

RIP. Very sad. As Pete said, he came across as a lovely man on the radio.

RIP, taken far too young.

It hits harder when they aren’t *that* much older than you. RIP Kev

Someone had posted a low liquidity market at 1.2 for united to finish top half which isn't as short as I would of thought it was going to be. I assumed theyd be pretty short and could grab them bottom half at 10.0 or longer. I'm not trying to swindle anyone so if that's egregiously off the market lines then i dont expect anyone to give me action on it. Everyone benefits from waiting for markets to come out because both sides get to save money by taking out the vig and no one gets an awful line. I don't see how that's a bad thing.

If it's a more bespoke bet/market then it makes more sense to just come up with a number (like the PL midfielder bet we had last year).

looks like Villa is buying Maatsen from chelsea for 37.5, and then selling a player (possibly duran?) to chelsea but the player hasn't been specified.

happy to get the full price for maatsen after falling flat in the ucl final where Both goals were pretty much his fault.

Nabil Bentaleb has had a heart attack at 29. Bleak.

Hoopie probably praying to god they don't have a couple of goalkeeper injuries next season right now

lol, I mean, I've seen some exceptionally **** goalkeepers at West Ham, I really just hope he ends up being nothing more than a glorified assistant at training.

Frank Lampard no longer in the running

Venkysfan (and jalfrezi) makes a fool of him(her/them)self again

Stolen from reddit, from someone's free Fifa pack:

With the 69 Def.... *chef's kiss*

i gotta imagine there's some inside baseball at play which makes that funnier than i find it, but it should have been a sweeper or a fullback

looks like minge can dribble

I love a loophole me

Chelsea just speed running through all the things that have been banned/shunned in American sports leagues already.

like the contract amortization was straight from the NHL. wasn't it ilya kovalchuk that signed a 17 year deal where the last years he got paid nothing in order to minimize the average.

foden and doug polk would make a really good lesbian couple

Jim Radcliffe:

Loool

I see Sir Jim does not have any regard for these PR shenanigans.

First the no girls allowed and now with the big 6 (Im guessing commercially/historically big6) should have more rights. Looking forward to his opinions on foreign player quota and immigration.

One hell of a winning goal in the Atlanta United game yesterday if you've not seen it already and/or read the MLS thread
