Big Vince 414 Posted September 27, 2021 I am now off to the bookies to collect my 4/7 winnings on the Everton game. Quite a tidy six-figure sum since I staked everything on the outcome. So the one thing I would like to congratulate Delia for - her failings are making me much richer. If it carries on like this I might have enough to launch a hostile takeover.

Son Ova Gunn 165 Posted September 27, 2021 If it carries on much longer the odds on us losing will shorten to the point it will cost more in petrol (if you can get any) to go to the bookies to collect winnings than the actual winnings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dyche vs Farke is being seen as the biggest no-contest of all-time. The Turf Moor turf is going to be littered with yellow feathers come 16.50 on Saturday.

Duncan Edwards 2,395 Posted September 27, 2021 Yeah, I can just see a punter walking into the Bill Hills on the corner and staking £70k to win 40 and them accepting it....🤪 You'd struggle to get more than a few hundred on a horse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greavsy 2,606 Posted September 27, 2021 I do, as whilst I like a bet, I would find the online / apps too tempting. Therefore my personal rule is if I want to place a bet i have to physically attend the shop to do so. Works for me 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Certainly more tricky now, especially for new customers. But we regularly lay big football singles. Just three days left to go in the industry then after 15 years, that's me done. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So to go to the bookies and walk away with the said six figure sum , including your stake - by my reckoning Pig has strolled into the local Billy Hill (other bookies are available ) and laid down Circa. £31k .
