I believe a few tweeted that they had the winner with the free bet.

There was an opportunity for Brighton fans to get a free £5 bet via skybet. Was set up by a Brighton fan and season ticket holder. Unfortunately the wireless wasn't good enough for me to get on

Fine - but don't subject the shit to me when I'm at a football match.
A large number of people like Horse Racing.
You weren't forced to watch it, nobody was. You could've gone and got a pint, food, watched the countless other tv's in the concourse, had a chat. Why make out you were made to watch it.

Well foolg, I had flown down from Aberdeen that morning with a rucksack (7am start), came straight
from Gatwick and had to put that
under my seat - so my mobility was less than optimal. Also I was waiting to see the first half
scores which flashed up for about f****** 5 seconds on the screen, because of that *******
horse race.
I went to a lot of personal grief to get flights on a saturday morning from Scotland
and do you know what? I don't know why I bothered. Noyone on the pitch
seemed to give a f**k.
Well I nipped to the loo, and of the 2 tv's I walked past, one was on SSN and the other the horses.
This. Not interested personally so it was background noise to me. Not a problem, and if it attracts a few more then great.

Bizarrely I was actually at the Gold Cup, I never got to see any of the Albion match on the big screen there though. Was that pissed when I got back to my Glasgow hotel I slept through the FL show, didn't miss much though so I'm told

Ooh look at me I went to the Ayr Gold Cup, and flew up with Easy Jet and back with BA . Some poor sod had ,HAD to watch that race whether he liked it or not. He couldn't read his programme , talk to the person next to him , or close his eyes and contemplate his long journey,that he takes at a great deal of personal expense. But you in your ivory tower,just go on don't you . Well it's not good enough. And it's against the law , the law of England before you ask. Nothing to do with me!!
F**k - don't ever put anything under your seat !

You make it sound like you came all the way from Aberdeen to check the scores at half time on the big screen.
