You’d think the selfish bastard would have let usknow before logging off

I’m dying to know if the OP laid off the bet
Fücking Arsenal cünts. They humped about 70 people out of the LMS over the last few weeks (including me) by not winning, now they've screwed my missus out of £4800 by winning! Oh well, she's still in LMS with the other guy, just the two of them left going into next weekend's fixtures.
She laid the bet off at £250 on Arsenal at evens, so made £250 profit for feck all. I tried to get her to put a grand on it, on the basis it was guaranteeing either £1000 or £3800 profit by the end of the night, but I get the impression she simply wasn't believing there was no way to lose. Stupid cow.
Come on the %^*& OP you selfish barsteward, we are waiting for an update.
I would be asking for a chop. 50/50 agreement.
Guaranteed £2400 quid between your missus and the other person. Can see both happy with that esp coming up to Christmas.
Do you want FF to create a poll on who we think you should choose next week? Haha
Ha, my missus is from your neck of the woods Al.
Galling thing isn't so much Arsenal winning, it's West Ham being 1-0 up at 60 mins then 1-1 till 66 mins. 24 mins from £4800 just before Xmas!
What a great opportunity missed,she could have had a massive profit from the arsenal game and still going for the big pot as well,it was a win win.Fücking Arsenal cünts.

Hopefully her luck is in with her next pick.
Let us know who she has in the next round along with who the other person picks so we can look out for the result.
Ps if the opportunity comes up again to cover it (ie the other person's team loses before your game) then try and make sure she does it this time or just steal her bank card and do it yourself
Didn't even think of that,feck me if it goes on you could be loaded by the time it's won if the games are at different times and you both pick winners and were laying the betsha I will. Doesn’t even need the other guy to lose first - if her team plays first and wins, she has the same opportunity as the other night
There was a guarantee if he had bet big on arsenal the other night of a big pay out no matter what happenedThere's no guarantee of the cash when you have a rollover option.
Yeah I actually properly read the OP after, my bad.There was a guarantee if he had bet big on arsenal the other night of a big pay out no matter what happened
So it's any premier league team you can pick and only once obviously?
Yep. They win, you're through; they draw or lose, you're out. Can't pick same team twice.
This is FF - she'd be best avoiding whoever anyone picks on here!Who’s she picked so far so we can give our own shite opinion on who to go for?
I would be going Crystal Palace.
At home - 3 clean sheets in a row and they play last on the monday.
Means if she wants to offset the result Brighton are 2/1
If she chooses an earlier weekend game than him, could end up on the same no lose situation, worth considering if the fixtures are decent
Am I right in saying the only way she can guarantee a situation where she can offset is to pick a team that plays last? Otherwise she's dependent on her pick winning before the other guy's team plays
Yes. But end of the day your trying to pick a team to win, if that just happens to be the team that plays last like say Palace, then so be it.
No point picking a team just cos they play first and they get pumped.
Palace is the obvious choice, although I suspect the other boy will pick them too.
Palace / Brighton is a derby, they hate each other for some reason (miles apart too).
Southampton could be a shout, won last two home games, not amazing but West Ham are really really struggling.
Put it this way, Saints are odds on with the bookies, Palace are odds against.
Wouldn’t like to be waiting on Southampton for a tenner never mind the guts of £5k
Can't split it. Both have to pick a team next week, if they both go out the money rolls over again, quadruple rollover. They could try come to an agreement I guess where they agree to split the money and pick their team tactically between them, but they can't just agree to collect the pot and split it.
I'm torn between wanting her to win, and wanting the quadruple rollover so I'm back in! Will likely be over £6000 then. 110 people at £10 a head, then all the Buy Backs from people humped out in week 1 at another £10 a head - which is usually a lot, as people pick diddy teams in week 1 to try get them out the road, knowing it's their 1 chance to buy back in.
At 4800, I'd speak to the other lad. (If can get it written down)Yep. They win, you're through; they draw or lose, you're out. Can't pick same team twice.
But she can't offset if his doesn't win?Am I right in saying the only way she can guarantee a situation where she can offset is to pick a team that plays last? Otherwise she's dependent on her pick winning before the other guy's team plays
At 4800, I'd speak to the other lad. (If can get it written down)
Pick a game involving 2 teams they haven't used between them.
1 on home win, 1 away win. take £2400 each or it rolls over!
Everyone has a fair enough shot at the win that way! Even you!
