Favourites for going down
Something to prove then!!
Are we necessarily joint favourites for going down though? These odds aren't necessarily directly inverse to relegation odds. You're chasing one spot rather than four for starters. The part time sides including us you could put at 500/1 as much as 100/1 cos we simply won't win it. But if you take Southport at 66/1, it's saying they could (but won't) have a surprise season like a couple of years ago and get towards the each way places yet it certainly doesn't rule out they can come down.
I don't think we have anything to prove to bookmakers and I'm sure we'd not be one most peoples tips of four to go down if they've any idea.
Sybil and Toffee are right though. We need to recruit and recruit well this summer. It's easier said than done but it's got to be done. No excuses (tbf to Sinnott he doesn't offer them much).
