£25 for me. Suppose I'll have to cover it, in case they make a habit of it.

Hopefully will get a chance to blow one of their offers on Brighton soon.

£50 for me this week. I placed a £30 mug bet and layed so only cost 60p after I got the email to keep them sweet for next time. Will also place a couple of mug bets midweek.

Bet365 seem to have taken off the +0.5 bet option. Not accessible from Oddschecker either.

I can't cover it best I could get was:
Betfred £250 +0.5 goals at 1/20 potential return £262.50
Bet365 £25 0-0 at 10-1 return £275

So a goal scored would make my freebet of £25 cost £12.50. Not taking that.

Any better ideas apart from not partaking?

Can't you just lay at an exchange?

I took Chelsea to win @ 3.70 with my £25 and layed on Smarkets @ 3.80 which cost me £1.57, but now my £25 free in-play bet can be used to guarantee me a profit

It's still there, I just looked, currently 1/20

Bet365 have a Watford win at 10/11 and Albion at 3/1.

That's a huge disparity in a two horse race, between two teams spoken equally on NSC as part of the relegation mix, just a fortnight ago.

Good value there for those backing their hunch of a first Albion PL win.

Did Watford have Andre "Scored against the Albion in four straight league games" Gray two weeks ago?

I didn't know about that track record.

Plus it looks like Marco Silva isn't a serial loser after all, which was something mentioned on NSC this summer after he joined Watford.

I didn't until i was researching an article a couple of days ago.

10/11 Watford looks great value to me regrettably. They put 3 past Liverpool and beat Bournemouth away. The latter result may or may not be good - we don't know yet, but on last season's form it certainly looks decent.

Two-horse race? The draw is 3.4, which is 29pc.

And there's 7-2 about us with Victor 7 Unibet.

Sorry, I didn't mean in strict betting terms. I meant in the wider context of two so-called relegation candidates and my surprise that bookies/betting cash flows make one of those relegation candidates 3.5x more likely to beat the other, than the other way round.

But in strict betting terms, they don't. Watford are top-priced at evens, a 50pc chance, and Albion are 7-2, which is 22pc. It's only just over twice as likely that Watford will win.

Just seen this, don't cash out out, you will still win some money, and it could be a lot!
