tom_numbers Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 You're gonna have to tell us what happened in 10/11 and who you're managing for us to even try to understand why. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nottingham Forest Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Is this rated for FM? Or real life? If FM. Have they been taken over and spent alot of money and brought good players? Did they win the league the previous season before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AcidBurn Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 What are you saying?Odds are too good? Odds aren't good enough? Surely he means that odds are too low for Everton, like everyone has said it does depend on what they did in the first season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom_numbers Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 If the Mexican is Man City rich, it makes a lot more sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Hearn Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I don't understand odds and how they work. I don't even know what's considered to be good and what bad. And if someone could explain it, that would be awesome. Also, what factors are they and media prediction based on. I know a bit is on on the last position, but surely it can't be reliant on this alone, right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom_numbers Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Someone asked this question the other day Hearn, and we couldn't decide either. Reputation seems to play a big part, previous finish, and then possibly value, money in the bank, ability of manager, transfer budget, ability of players. Your guess is as good as mine.

x42bn6 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 It's probably reputation. This is why you can do the quadruple 50 times over and if one of your title rivals suddenly gets a sugar-daddy takeover, they might shoot up to favourites, despite the fact you've won the same competition again and again and again and again and again...

R. Hearn Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Ah, I see. I've never really understood how they work and so ignored them and attempt to meet board's expectation. Though I hate over-ambitious boards expecting more from you than the media prediction. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
isignedupfornorealreason Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 No idea, they're rubbish tbqh. I'm still smirking at the fact my relegation tipped Redditch just thumped Top half/promotion canidiates Darlington 9-0 in their own back yard (and a few days before a 6-0 thumping of Bath) but eh that's the game for you. Would be nice if they looked into the squad abilities and the manager's history for a rating rather than past position. ¬_¬ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
