Emma Finucane 33/1 SPOTY

If luke makes the list, he wins though. Your girl struggles to podium.

you have to be joking ? emma guaranteed on the list and guaranteed top 3, the welsh alone ensures that brushy.

All this talk of not winning an individual gold is complete crap as well, you really think women voters care about those finer details and the welsh certainly won't give two hoots.
The gold she got from the team sprint, when shown on the night will show Emma racing the final lap and bringing it home with a new world record.

Now call me daft but the public are not the brightest bunch and many will credit Emma with getting the gold on her own, not even realising its a team event lol
Even the smart ones will realise Emma was the backbone of that team and ensured gold and the world record.

There is some very smart people on this forum, not being smart at all regarding Emma's chances. I'm 100% confident on the night she will be single figures to win.

You want value ? you want a decent trade ? be smart, not a red wally like brushy

another thing i would add, Emma will get just as much media coverage, interviews as keely if not more. Both decent in front of the camera but emma has the edge for me. she's the history maker twice, 1st woman in 60 years and only athlete at games to medal 3 times.

Well done on moving the prices yourself :)

i'd take note of my posts if i was you, emma will be single figures !!!

she is the only runner who can beat keely, the old farts on here will see that soon enough

Doesn't seem that way, only you backing innit

i didn't take stu's money once, probably 200 layer lol

The layers also taking on Hoy and the Kenny's, only the greatest Olympians of all time that will surely push Emma for spoty as its gets nearer

How didn't either of the Kenny's ever win it?

probably coz of emma raducanu and murray did lol

Kenny everett got closer to winning spotting than those two

More History i've just seen if true, she is the 1st Welsh Olympian man or woman to win 3 medals at one games

more records more history = spoty winner

wish i could change the title to 50/1 e/w 10/1 a place is sooooo fat

track cyclist Elinor Barker became the first Welsh woman to win four Olympic medals during her career, with a silver and bronze in Paris adding to team pursuit gold and silver from Rio and Tokyo respectively.

Not much to beat if she keeps going...

i won't be replying to the other fred bear, its just for anyone wanting to see her achievements quickly and for any newcomers to see without trawling through brushy's endless drivel.

I hear Stuart Bingham could be starting a good run of form to challenge too...

I've put some 36 up for you

only looking at ew markets now

on stu GB - very risky!

emma only wins with a very strong organised campaign, top 3 is where im at

History-making Olympic medallist Emma Finucane's former club couldn't be prouder

media loving the history angle

Campaign in that welsh accent of hers and it's all over ;-)

Joke explanation - i sound more welsh than her :)

Never forgot where she came from, except her accent :(

just googled keely, the headlines shes getting are not that impressive, only the mirror saying golden girl, rest are average, star says hero. nothing much after that.

no history maker

could the history maker upset the apple cart ?

it appears to me its emma that is stealing all the headlines post games

the same headlines that will be pumped everywhere in the run up to the award

history maker grabs peoples attention instantly, they realise she must of done something special

How about just backing your selections then army - not constantly ranting and trying to convince everyone?
Or is there some reason you need to convince us?

(laying of reds...)

Although, I do see some of your logic for the potential Top 3 bet - but surely you don't want to ramp her price down before that market even opens?

it would appear to me the press see keely as just another gold medalist, and its emma the history maker that is grabbing the headlines

stu - im doing what i always do, post my thoughts. plenty of other forums you can hang out on

Just querying your aims army - if you want to be backing her in top 3 see no point in ramping her shorter before then.

pointless worrying about a price drop, by the time i got anything substantial on someone would of highlighted she is a good thing. endless tipsters now on sm, it wont be long before shes clear 3rd fav

99% or the time i always get on before posting one word on here, just can't be arsed this time. got a few bets ew on.
after seeing headlines start to appear, emma could win. she is the star not keely's 1 gold
media loving the effort of 3 medals and history being made

There'd be no price drop if you weren't constantly trying to make out she was a history maker, massive vote puller etc etc...

But you've let the cat out of the bag now - she'd be 200 to win this if you weren't on her and promoting her to win SPOTY.

Here's a freebie for you arms.  Don't ever say i don't help you out

She had self doubt!!!! SELF DOUBT!  jaysus

'star of the games'

you were laying her other day stu, make ya fecking mind up.
don't worry about me, if i feck price up its down to me..keep backing keely

i posted that the other day brushy lol

I'm a layer, so yes thanks for allowing me to lay her at shorter prices for sure!

I wouldn't lay her top 3 at big prices, but win, yes I would.

funny thing is someone just told me same thing, i should keep quiet

tbh im liking the win again

the top 3 market on here is totally sh1t anyway, only good on the night. no one lays f all even if you ask and the highstreet are even worse.

This is reminding me of the Mason 'Noise' train army

i was trying to lump earps in lads, not on machine so had to go to counter, they couldn't find it so had to ring through.
did one shop, drove 10 miles to next town and they said i'd already put a bet on in another shop

Was checking lateysha's twitter for the inevitable welsh love in, and huge amounts of historic posts but all i can see is about her selling her minge on only fans :(

Even glyn hasn't mentioned it :(

oh you'd have to go get it, it took me an hour to find my skelton thread earlier. i backed him from 10/1 down to 9/2 for top 3

all i can see is about her selling her minge on only fans :(

That's because you haven't stopped 'researching' since seeing that GB

Huw Edwards is all over it though

lateshya

50's i'll take on here,maybe 40+ if i get bored of waiting

im just preying someone starts a decent campaign, i'll be asking as many as i can so hopefully one will take up the mantle

Who you asking?  Does this involve kerb crawling or breaking into a care home?

well it won't be littler's manager

Army arrested for defacing packets of cheese in Caerphilly :(

He's played this market very Caerphilly

(I'll get me coat...)

I caernavon be having that stu

That made mine look good

Army won't want to ruthin his reputation

you must be bored, at least you can get double figures on luke soon

Oohc oohc

your track record of starting spoty trains and they instantly drift is 2/2 go rory, can't wait for next years

Lol, that wasn't great.  Everyone will be squirting faeces when lukey is nommed though

Need a kagool

im here - back emma

hth

they need to nom him after that shower in paris, he's the most well known by a mile

kelly who ?

He's only drifting cos I've been piling on kamala :)

its going to be the most boring award show ever, they are 100% going to make documentaries of keely just to promote her

then she'll be 1.20

They get an alloted time each. You actually watched before? :)

And the Olympic section has to cover a huge amount of stuff

Not enough staff to make documentaries now

i'm on about independent documentaries long before the night

That'll be riveting

yep, we'll get to learn about keely's deafness coz i doubt anyone knows that either

now emma's self doubt, anxiety and crying before the worlds will be well worth watching

I don't really remember any docs coming out before spoty?  It's all covered by bbc anal fairness rules

Possibly hammy years ago when he won from 7/1 ?

They've done the budget on longer series of late.  And there's feck all budget

what about if they've already been made pre games by other channels ready go out

Doc on pep, fairly dull.  Getting some money's worth out of lineker's salary

Another doc on scottish, irish and welsh footy. That was decent tbf

Daley thompson, which i intend to watch.

so anyone that could be nommed is not allowed a doc to air from the moment they did something good ?

I doubt it tbh.  Anyway, the bbc don't seem remotely interested in doing docs about anyone current.  All kind of 80s 90s nostalgia porn innit

Eric bristow and jocky wilson far more likely than luke littler

lol

SKY DOCUMENTARIES COMMISSIONS NEW THREE-PART DOCUMENTARY SERIES ‘DARTS’

Following a record-breaking 2023/24 PDC World Darts Championship final, Sky Documentaries have announced the commission of an access-all-areas premium documentary series ‘Darts’, which will be available on Sky and NOW later this year.

Luvvely jubbly

forget keely's price, false as feck for me...this is going to be the best spoty market in years.

immaterial of what luke does at players championship, it matters not. hes done plenty enough already
if he gets on the list he has a massive chance of winning and the bbc know that, so will they put him on or not ?
ooooooh its gonna be soooooo exciting

Welcome onboard army, wrong thread though :)
