I don't know why I'm panicking about relegation . The bookies have us at 8/1 !!! The favourite for the national is only 10/1 .

If you had a spare pound which bet offers the best value .?

Both have no value and would be a waste of a pound.

Choice No.1 800% profit

Choice No.2 1000% profit

The value is there, but the risk favours the bookmaker.

We were 20-1 only a few weeks ago, it's still unlikely we will go down but I am now a little nervous.

Very likely. Grand national is a fools race.

Hence I personally see no value. Could be 2/1 or 20000/1: if it ain't gonna happen I would be wasting my money!
