Ditto. Fortunate enough to be able to have a leisurely build up to the game during the afternoon too.

We'll be in Halifax from today and staying over till wednesday just so we can make sure we're well hydrated ready for the game lol

I'm just going to get drunk and do naked laps around the pitch.

Have absolutely no idea how this will go! Brain says another smashing but God only knows! Always love a trip to the Pink Link Stand though.

HUDDERSFIELD GIANTS -24.......10/11



SALFORD CITY REDS +24......10/11



TIE: 16/1

Now, I'm going to sound really dim here, but as I don't gamble I suppose it's no real surprise that I don't quite understand what those odds are telling me. Let's see. So, if Salford lose by less than 24 points, you win 10% of whatever your stake was? Ie, put £10 on, Salford lose by saaaay, 16 points, you win a £1 and get your stake back too? Close?

If you backed Salford +24 for £10 then yes you would win, IF they don't lose by 23 or more, losing by 24 exactly would equal the draw, although I'm not sure the bet is for BIG punters like you? For a £10 stake you would return £19.09



10 x 21 (10/11) divided by 11



The popular bets on these odds are £55 to return £105 or £110 to return £210, I would say most people back the team given the handicap thus Hudds to win by 25 or more!

Cheers for that although now my brain hurts... Think I'll stick to psychology.

Was in a rush on my morning break, could have explained it better.



The handicap basically gives Salford a 24 point start to the game so no matter what the final score is you would add 24 points to Salford, if that equates to Salford scoring more than Huddersfield at full time and you backed Salford you would win. E.G. Huddersfield 52 Salford 30, if the score was Huddersfield 32 Salford 8 then that would be the draw (you lose) or Huddersfield 48 Salford 12 its a Huddersfield win (you lose).



The price is your stake times the whole fraction divided by the latter number in the fraction.



So lets say you stake £50 on Salford +24, it would be £50 x 21 divided by 11 = £95.45 return so long as Salford were to get beat by less than 23 points.



Any clearer?
