Addicks odds for relegation

Sky Bet are offering odds of 3-1 for Charlton to be relegated, the same as for Fulham. The three promoted clubs are all given the worst odds, but surely at least one of them will survive. Troubled Aston Villa are given 11/4 odds. We had a lot of the local Villa at our summer party and their view is that only one things stands between them and relegation: the arrival of Alan Curbishley at Villa Park. Portsmouth are also given 11/4 odds. I think they should be relegated from the Premiership anyway if they fail to bring their ground up to scratch which is always promised but never happens. These odds would give Charlton a 15th finish which seems realistic.

Paddy Power are more pessimistic, giving us 9-4 odds to be relegated and a finishing position of 17th.

Some of the Addickted reckon that the 16-1 odds on Middlesbrough look very generous.
