Do bookies get it wrong.....?

Harris was 2/1 on Monday so the odds suggest somebody somewhere knows he’s our next manager doesn’t it??

Did you read any of the other comments in this post?

Seeing as it is only Skybet that are quoting it means nothing. If you was to stick more than a 100 on that the odds would be slashed. (and they'd probably limit your stakes if it won). The truest reflection is normally found on the exchanges such as betfair but there is no market there right now. Only got to look at the 16million on Harry Rednapp to go to Pompey when Warnock was the bookies favourite.

There are real questions about how sky can operate a bookies and various media outlets without a conflict of interests.

Talksport - also owned by news corp? Have stated numerous times that Harris is the front runner or hinted even more strongly than that
