    5th January 2017:

    Huddersfield Pl 25 Pts 46
    Leeds Pl 25 Pts 45
    Wednesday Pl 25 Pts 48
    Barnsley Pl 25 Pts 38
    Rotherham Pl 25 Pts 13

    Bet365

    Huddersfield 13/8 (38%)
    Leeds 13/8 (38%)
    Wednesday 2/1 (33%)
    Barnsley 33/1 (3%)
    Rotherham 4500/1 (0%)

    Just an 8 point difference between ourselves and Huddersfield, and we still have to play our three higher-achieving neighbours at home. I have a gut feeling our chances of topping this mini league are a little bit better than 3%, but at 33's, you don't have to lay out a huge amount to find out!

    Shouldn't that be 42 points?

    I think my bet on promotion at 150/1 a couple of weeks ago was better. That bet could come up without our having to finish highest or even second highest of the Yorkshire clubs. Best odds on promotion now are 80/1. Most bookies offer significantly less.
