Skynobet 250/1 Betvictor 250/1 Worth a fiver of anyone's money? (Although true to form, Skynobet would only offer me a quid!) Most unlikely, I know. But it would be even more unlikely if we were in December and rock bottom, wouldn't it?
Just got £2 at 821/1 on Betfair. Current odds now 811/1 with £2 available. But that was to win the league.
3rd Test Match, Headingley 1981. Ladbrokes offering 500/1 against an England win. I was there with my mate. We both had a couple of quid spare so debated a bet. I decided to spend mine on another pint. He had a bet. The rest is history, and I still haven't got over it.........
Didn't Rodney Marsh, the Aussie wicketkeeper, send their 12th man out to the bookies to when he saw the odds, too good a bet not to have a go at?
It was the same odds 2 seasons ago when we were in Division 1. Put £5 on when we were struggling at the bottom of the league... result x
While I'd like it to happen again, League 1 is a whole different ballgame than the Championship though.
Yes. Made me even sicker. We snuck off work to watch the last few overs before the win, and I was treated to said mate cavorting round the room doing backflips as he contemplated his winnings. Oh God, how I hated him.
Can't see us doing owt this season misen like, but I'll be putting a couple of quid on this weekend (I do it every year), just in the hope this take over go's ahead and we don't sell our best players in the January transfer window.
I was at that match and saw the odds they put them on the scoreboard we had the same debate and bought a pint Only time in my life I regretted not placing a bet What were our odds on promotion 2 years ago when we were bottom in December
I got 100-1 when we was bottom to get promoted and 33-1 to finish top 6 . Only had about a fiver on both though .
Ah I kept telling people we wasn't playing bad and was in a false position at bottom, talked myself into betting them
