If you like adding the excitement of a bet to that of following the Fulham
then, in relation to the Worthington Cup, the place to go is Victor Chandler
and BlueSquare who are offering the best price of 12/1 about Fulham lifting
the Cup. (
see prices below)
Unfortunately in recent years the Worthington Cup has come close to losing
any prestige it might have had with many teams, Man Utd in particular, showing
open contempt for the competition. The common policy, pursued by clubs focusing
on European commitment or important league issues, of fielding weakened
squads makes the Worthington a difficult proposition from the betting point
of view.
However the weakened team syndrome helps mid-table Premiership squads and
they tend to take the competition more seriously because of their real chance
of getting into Europe.
From Fulham's point of view the club is still very much focussed on the
mission to establish itself as a Premiership club so the Worthington may
still not be a huge priority. However winning or losing against other Premiership
opposition would affect morale for the Premiership so there will have to
be a determination to win that could carry Fulham to the final four games
away.
Latest prices for the Worthington Cup show Fulham at 8/1 with the Tote and
12/1 with each of Victor Chandler and BlueSquare. These prices will of course
be smaller once we have dumped Spurs out of the competition.
