Charlton Odds-On for Drop After Goodison Defeat
Movements at the foot of the Premiership have provided punters with infinitely more excitement than those at the top of the league this season and there are still five possible teams that can join Watford in the Championship next season. While the Hornets are not mathematically relegated, most bookmakers have stopped offering odds on their demise, with only William Hill offering 1/200 at the time of writing. A 3-0 defeat at Bramall Lane has left West Ham's survival hopes dangling by a thread and Blue Square have reacted by making them 1/7 shots for the drop after their mni-revival came to an abrupt end. Also odds-on are Charlton (8/11 Ladbrokes) after a last minute defeat at Everton, which leaves them two points behind 17th-placed Sheffield United. The Blades have done their survival hopes the power of good by beating West Ham and are 5/2 with bet365 to suffer the drop, while Fulham have been dragged into a dogfight and are just 3/1 with VC Bet to drop to the second flight. Wigan are now 11/2 (bet365) to go down after their 3-3 draw with Tottenham.
