    Hmmm, tempting odds! If rather stupid odds considering we were about 13 minutes away from winning it last season. Though I wouldn't want to bet on Arsenal winning, because then if we lost I'd lose money into the bargain as well, adding insult to injury!

    What about Liverpool?

    I know mate, at first i thought i heard wrong, 40-1 is great for a gambling side of things, but it doesn't seem quite right.. Still you never know....

    Worth a bet at 40-1, they are as capable as any of winning it as anyone and as Liverpool & Porto proved the best teams in Europe don't always win it.

    Looking at the odds for some of the other teams makes Arsenals odds seem all the more insulting, though the longer our odds, the shorter the odds for other teams would have to be... Poor league form didn't stop us reaching the final last season, or Liverpool from wining it the year before, idiots... I really hope they get taken to the cleaners!

    Do these bookies have a website or anything for anyone to have a punt at those odds? I suppose thinking about it, if not many people have bet on Arsenal that'd affect the odds too, but still, 40-1 is ridiculous.

    Every bookie will have different prices, they do this to try and out smart each other.. ie Ladbrookes, william hills etc. My Bro has an account with Paddy power, which aint to bad,they only gave me a 20-1 quote so looks like i got a much better deal!! Bring it on....
