Paddy Power slashes odds on Fine Gael/Fianna Fáil coalition

BOOKMAKERS Paddy Power have today slashed the odds on a Fine Gael/Fianna Fáil coalition from 11/8 to 6/5.

According to the bookie, an end to Civil War politics is looking increasingly likely while the odds on the current Government of Fine Gael and Labour holding on to power have been pushed from 9/2 to 6/1.

Meanwhile, Paddy Power have also slashed the odds on two elections taking place in 2016 to 6/4 having offered 9/2 just over a week ago.

Féilim Mac An Iomaire, a spokesperson for Paddy Power, said:

“Enda Kenny may continue to rule out a coalition with Fianna Fáil but our punters aren’t buying it and the most shocking Irish hook-up since Miley and Fidelma got frisky in a barn in Glenroe is looking increasingly likely.”
