Market drift

With the Winner market currently showing a huge overround at circa 94%/91% back/lay that represents a large free money oppotunity for either someone in 'the know' or a shrewdie.

Either, there is going to be a wild card entry and if so Gamu is the obvious choice to be the hot favourite of any new contestant likely entering the market at circa 5.0-6.0 ( 20% to 16% ) and laying the current market at 91% = WINNER.

or there is no wild card entry and 'Any Other Winner' is added to the market at a likely price of 50-100 ( 1% to 2% ) and backing the current market at 94% = WINNER


Some one in the know can clean up here.


P.S.
Anyone for another MoneySavingExpert ( lol ) incident on this market ?

Cheryl Cole was reportedly told not to pick X Factor's Gamu Nhengu as one of her three finalists due to fears that her visa may not be renewed.

Viewers of the ITV reality show have reacted furiously after Cole chose not to put Gamu through to the live shows, over 133,000 of whom have now joined a Facebook campaign.

"It was made clear Gamu shouldn't go through because of the visa," an insider told The Mirror. "Cheryl didn't have a say."

It is claimed that Cole was ordered not to choose the 18-year-old Zimbabwe-born singer over concerns that her visa would not be renewed, leading to her having to leave the country.

A production source said: "Cheryl didn't have much of a say in the matter. It was made clear that Gamu shouldn't be put through because they had issues with her, including the visa.

"A lot of people on the show think it's really unfair that Cheryl is taking all the flak as it was a group decision and she was just following orders."

They continued: "It's ridiculous the situation has got this far. It should have been knocked on the head much earlier on. Gamu should never have been put through to the Judges' Houses with question marks surrounding her visa.

"Everyone on the show has themselves to blame for not being straight from the beginning. Gamu not getting through has now become a bigger talking point than the 12 finalists."

An X Factor spokesman added: "Gamu's visa being processed was not the reason that she didn't make the final 12."

However, he apparently confirmed that the papers are still being renewed and therefore have not yet been processed.

Is that the same insider giving two opposing views Sq?

Have a look on DS headlines GB, stuff about JohnA having won a MOBO, and a former colleague of Katie slating her.

Cheryl is shortening disproportionately to her acts in the twelve, and someone wants to pile on at 2.6 ish

Any thoughts?

It feels like big brother just constantly lay the field at minimal cost and build up a huge A/O green

Extremely lax, can't remember a year where building up A/O was a mistake. Wish I'd seen that 2.6 btw

Still astounded Wagner is there at 200's, and laddies are happy to take up to £250 on him. I'm up to my eyeballs on Wagner/Diva Fever/TreyC.

I shall let it ride for a while. I only rate Rebecca, but even she will be outshone at first imho

Again the punters pile on jack, with the gamu news maybe.

Almost totally ignoring the fact you either have 4 WC's turning up on Saturday, or 1 popular one
