If you see Spurs away at Hull being cautious,I can`t wait for you to go gung-hoFebruary 27, 2009 at 00:59 #212514Gung ho for me is picking more than two teams.

Celtic 8/15
March 5, 2009 at 15:54 #213554It was nice to get that one up. It paid a £53 profit.
I’ll take a gander at the coupon later on.
March 5, 2009 at 19:54 #213607Absolutely true story from yesterday.
A man in the West of Scotland walked into a bookmakers shop and put a bet on the Rangers v Inverness Caley Thistle match at Ibrox.
He filled his coupon in and left the shop. He had stuck £60 on Rangers to win @ 1/5. – or so he thought.
Only later did he discover that he had marked the wrong box. He had inadvertently marked the away box instead – £ 60 ICT to win @ 8/1.
The man returned to the shop and pleaded with the manager to amend the bet. He insisted that it was a genuine mistake and would they please change it to a home win. After a phone call to HQ the bet was amended.
He left the shop happy as Larry.
Oh dear ! You all know the outcome.
He must have been kicking himself all night when discovering that ICT had won the match 1-0.Gambling Only Pays When You're Winning
March 5, 2009 at 21:02 #213623I’d be absolutely beelin if i were him. Are you sure it was only 8/1, i thought it would be more than that ! Infact they were 14/1 on the Ladbrokes website !!!

I am reliably assured that in this particular shop, 8/1 was the price on offer. I too was surprised by the low price.

April 8, 2009 at 01:36 #220813That was a sore one. Late goal from Porto loses 45 quid, and knocks overall profit in this thread down to £89.
