Pretty sure it would, at least we had to pay out when I worked at Hill's. Some bookies might try and be arsey about it, mind. Wouldn't that be like a dead heat, im sure they wouldn't pay full odds on two players being top scorers. It’d go down to assists.

Surely fewest games or minutes would be a better decider (probably the latter for a clear and more accurate winner).

No way we should be 14-1 on. We're favourites but that's like saying we'll win it 9 times out of 10 from here even giving a bit of margin to the bookies. There's plenty of uncontrollables like injuries, ref decisions etc. in play before you consider that other teams are challenging us and in good form themselves (albeit not as good). Halifax at 25-1 is a great price that I'd be very tempted by if I was a neutral.

Halifax 22/1 with SkyBet to win the NL. Now I do think we'll do it but considering they're not far behind and could quite well win tomorrow I think thats great odds as an outsider, especially when they've priced Wrexham at 9/1. If Halifax were to win tomorrow I'd imagine their odds would drop massively. For the record we're 1/10 (lets hope they're correct)

If Halifax were to win tomorrow I'd imagine their odds would drop massively. For the record we're 1/10 (lets hope they're correct) I think the tendency for fans to bet on their own team, the relative fanbases and lack of ''neutrals'' betting on the NL must be playing a part there. So the bookies are covering themselves with more money going on us and Wrexham.

Completely agree but we do have the tougher run in. Disregarding all that, I would have thought the uncertainties in football would give you better odds than that. City were miles clear, so were FGR. Strange things can happen. Don't get me wrong I'm confident and think we should be significant favourites as it stands but 1/14 on, even in a two horse race, would seem ridiculous to me. All good if the bookies are that confident though!

If we hadn’t have come back from 2-0 at the weekend then the title would have been in Halifax’s hands. We’ve won 19 out of 20 and we’re still only 4 points ahead of them (assuming they win game in hand). There’s not much room for error. Seem like good odds for Halifax, might have a few quid.

Top scorer odds:
Tshimanga 2/7 - 24 goals Madden 11/2 - 17 goals, 10 games left Mullin 6/1 - 16 goals, 11 games left.
I think Mullin is a good price. His goals per 90 is 0.62 as it stands so you'd expect him to score 7 more taking him to 23 based on that.
Then Wrexham have 7 of their final 11 at home, the next being Dover, Barnet and Eastleigh. Eastleigh and Dover have conceded 81 goals in 34 away games between them. Wrexham have scored 16 in their last 5 homes games.
I mean I hope he doesn't do it. He could well get injured or suspended again and even if he doesn't it's a tall order but 6-1 is a decent return for me. Not a betting man myself but if I was I would get it on before Dover.
EDIT - Madden's goals per 90 is 0.55 so you'd expect him to score 6 more rounding up taking him to 23 too. So, to be fair to him, he's not a bad price either.
EDIT 2 - Suppose the per 90 extrapolation assumes they play every minutes which is unlikely with injuries or the fixture congestion at the end of the season. Still think it will be close for one of them.

At the start of season I got County at 4/1 to win the league, I’d virtually given up us winning when Rusk was in charge so I’m hopeful we can now pull it off. I also got 12/1 for Paddy to be top scorer and only last week I had another bet on him to be top dog at 16/1 as long he doesn’t get injured I think he’s got a chance.
