I'm going to upgrade that idiot to super mega walloper.Quote:

Sounds like you've missed a few opportunities for easy money in that case. I'll take a win off the bookies any way I can get it. If that means betting hearts then so be it.Quote:

F~~k that
Aye, I just couldn’t do that. Maybe petty, but I couldn’t.Quote:

No really. Some people are able to keep their bets separate from their feelings towards teams and just stick a coupon on based who they think will win.Quote:

If I only bet on teams I liked I wouldn’t have much to punt and I would never win.
Yeah, I get that.
Still weird though, wanting Hearts to win.
£20 on Newcastle @12/5
I just came on to say that I fancy Newcastle quite strongly but, the price isn't quite big enough. Good luck 🤞Quote:

Sounds about right. Worked well last season unfortunately.Quote:

I want my bets to win, never Hearts.
I did a couple of times take hertz though have stopped when I realised I'd rather them to lose than gain a few quid. I've never backed any team against Hibs and never would though each to there own as they say .Quote:

Here's an example I never took on - they were 8/1 to end Celtic's 246 game unbeaten run a few years back. Someone was going to beat them, and I had a horrible feeling it would be them - Lafferty and all. If they were 1-0 up in injury time I'd have still wanted Celtic to equalise, but it's hardly a weird mindset to offset your preferred emotional outcome with a decent financial compensation.
Happy days. 👍Quote:

Over 12 corners at Portsmouth. Tight stadium. 9/4 your cash.
I know its late, but i did take Bayern at evens tonight.
Unbelievably they were 5/4 at one stage, I got greedy and doubled them with arsenal. Well done you :aok:Quote:
