Heheheheheh... It would appear that, even if the Nuncio isn't interested in what the Blogosphere has to say about the succession, Paddy Power is keeping a beady eye on things.
Archbishop Vincent Nichols is now at 7-4 (from 2-1), Bishop Arthur Roche is now back at 10-1 (after a brief stint at 12-1) and Archbishop Peter Smith is staying steady at 12-1.
Blogging Supremo Fr. Timothy Finigan is still in there (according to Paddy Power) at 10-1.
I think the rumours are correct and Paddy Power is wrong. £10 on Vincent and a £5 on Arthur & Peter respectively. My hunch is Peter represents fair value.
ReplyDeleteEveryone is lobbying for Aidan but this would set an unfortunate precedent for all concerned. I hope he is at least offered the position and would love it if he was to accept.
Paddy Power seems to have stopped offering prices, perhaps a suspicion of insider dealing?
