💬 Quotes from Jake Ashton

"Sweden remain the favourites for this year's [2023] Eurovision Song Contest with betting sites shortening the countries odds to evens from 5/4 to win the event in May."

"Donald Trump faces a busy 2023 ahead with his 2024 Presidential Campaign set to take up most of his next 12 months as he attempts to get back in office. Bookies are giving a whole host of specials around Trump's 2023 with the lowest odds at 6/1 for the former President to be sentenced to prison at some point this year."

"The takeover of Manchester United is one of the biggest news stories in English football currently and bookies say that there's a 63% chance it happens this year. According to the latest odds from Smarkets they make it 4/7 for the first bid to acquire a controlling stake of United to be accepted at some point in 2023. The latest reports though suggest that the Glazers, who are the current owners of United, are split on the sale of the club with bids not meeting their £6bn valuation. It may be that any potential takeover takes longer than this year and bids aren't accepted for months so 2024 or later has shortened in the betting market. It's now just 11/10 that United's takeover happens in 2024 or later with the latest odds giving a 47% chance of that being the case."
