[flimsier]

I'm sorting your winnings, if I can find the bloody results.

 

[Pickman's model]

if you'd sorted them at the time rather than procrastinating so you wouldn't have to rummage about for them now.

£27.00 on orebro to beat helsingborg LOST
£29.00 on kalmar and landskrona to draw WON 12/5

I'll take the last in real life if you like!

In fact, I'll take the lot in real life if you want (and if you want to be a wimp and take them at 1/10th that's ok).



I'll price them up in a minute. Your money is good, since you said ok.

 

[flimsier]

I'll open an account please.

£150 on Leicester winning the championship 6/1
£150 on Connolly winning the golden boot 10/1
£100 on Leicester winning the league cup 100/1
£50 on everton going down 5/2

There's your receipt, and welcome sir!

 

[ChrisFilter]

I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable taking all that money off you in real life.. but yeah, ok, at a 1/10th that's a lot of money you stand to lose though.

 

[ChrisFilter]

oh, and btw, league cup leicester are 66/1 I think.. but I'll take 100/1 if you want.. far too honest me

We'll shake on that and write it down if you're for real!

This bookie looks for better odds and sometimes gives them if he feels the quoted odds were a bit low.

100/1 is probably low.

I'll give you 500/1 Leicester for the FA Cup (virtual only).

 

[flimsier]

You could lose £45 quid.

I probably shouldn't go for the league cup bet coz though it won't happen it's too much cash, though I could just lay it off on the exchanges.

I'll stick £20 on that then.. we've never done it before (despite being finalists 4 times) but this Leicesterfarian eyes are smiling

as for the real life bet.. cool, you gonna be playing on wednesday?

 

[ChrisFilter]

and fair enough about the league cup, you stand to lose a grand.

2004 C & G Trophy
Worcestershire 5/6
Gloucestershire 5/6

Im a bit confused by this
does it really mean u lose money if you bet on either team?!
they are both such equal favourites?!?!

Is there a possibilty of the twenty20 odds being ammended?
If not id like to bet £50 on Surrey pls.

 

[Red Faction]

May I have the odds on my SPL bet please?
I belive I said Celtic would finish first, Rangers second and Hearts third.
Thankyou.

 

[Red Faction]

I would also like to know the odds on predicting the top 3 in the premiership as chelski, arsenal + man utd (not in that order) and on predicting liverpool + newcastle for 4th and 5th respectively please.

Have you ever entered a betting shop?

You get your stake back if you win, so 5/6 means that if you stake 6 quid, your total return is 11 quid.

I stopped myself from rolleyesing.

 

[flimsier]

I'll give you 7/2. I'm taking it but you have 12 hours to take it back if you don't like the odds.

Here was your receipt. Please read the thread or don't bet.

 

[Red Faction]

Yeah sorry- £20 on Gloucestershire for the C&G at 5/6 pls.

 

[flimsier]
