Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen

[Old Greg]

Still time to make the referendum interesting. My choice bets are:

Yes to win: 21/5 - must be worth a go.
Yes vote > 60%: 16/1 - for unix
Turnout 80 to 85%: 2/1
Independent Scotland's credit rating
Scotland to be an independent member of the EU by 2020: 9/1 - looks like the bookies don't see EU membership as a foregone conclusion

Go YES!

Go YES!

Not a gambler - 21/5 - does that mean if I stick £5 on, I get £21 back? Do I get back my original fiver too?

[mudskipper]

Says 19/5 now. Still, I suppose you still lose the same amount...

Yes to both.

ClientCo's firewall doesn't approve of gambling.

Might chuck a few quid on tonight for the laffs.

What are the odds on an exact 50-50 split? It's looking increasingly likely…

[Flashman]

we need a thread for the closest prediction. Winner takes home a deep fried mars bar.

Flashmans prediction.

Of the votes cast...

No. 56%
Yes. 44%

The quiet majority wins...

It cannot be more than 50% likely.

[BrilloPad]

Its going to be no - the only question is the margin.

[shaunbhoy]

Its going to be no - the only question is the margin.

I agree with this.
I'd go for a 52% No 48% Yes

And Alex Salmond will blame it all on Westminster Politicians.
