Where did you get Virgo at 33/1 Gareth?

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Ladbrokes, marketing department did not do their homework. They should have known Virgo was upfront and he should have been about 8/1 not 33/1. Loads of people backed Virgo at 33/1.

virgo was not 33-1, i looked at midday, and he was 10-1. when did you put the bet on?

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

I put the bet on at 12pm and they still had 33/1 on their seperate screen as well as the coupon.

Tomorrow I will be looking incredible sylish at work tomorrow, think Jude Law, with a brand new Italian Suit, quality shoes with a silk shirt and tie I purchased this afternoon courtesy of my winnings on Virgo today.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

I also had 5 pounds on Brighton to be winning at half time/full time at 9/1.

Therefore my winnings on Brighton this weekend were.

Saturday 90 pounds stake , brighton to win at 7/5, returns 216 pounds. Brighton to win part of a 4 timer, 10 pounds, returns 190 pounds.

Monday 10 pounds stake Virgo first goal at 33/1, 5 pounds brighton to be winning half time/full time at 9/1 + 5 pounds lost bet, returns 390 pounds

Total - stakes 120 pounds
- returns 796 pounds
- profit 676 pounds

[SK1NT]

i also might add i went to put on £20 on a south coast double with us and pompey to win! never made it to the bookies

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Had nothing to do with the pre printed coupon. Those coupons can be withdrawn or revised at anytime. It was a genuine cock up and Ladbrokes were still offering 33/1 on their screens at 12.05 pm.
