Paddy Power Mistake

[blueblood]

After Stoke City's defeat at Bolton on Saturday the Internet book maker "Paddy Power" decided to pay out on bets regarding the Potters going down. What would your views be if this was to happen to the Gate? After only losing to Carshalton. On Stokes part it has made them more determined to fight for survival and shove the betting slips up Paddy's a**e.

As far as betting is concerned if the bookies offered odds on whether Margate get relegated I would snap them up off them.

I'll give you 10/1 that Margate won't go down

How much are you betting ?

I'm not so desperate as i would bet on anyones misfortune. It's dirty money.

Spot the U Turn

[P.W.]

Actually Greg - it's spot the dodgy edit.

 

Alan did write "........if the bookies offered odds on whether Margate get relegated I would snap them up off them"

 

Then you wrote "Blueblood I'll offer 10/1.

How much are you betting ?"

 

Then Blueblood replied "I'm not so desperate as i would bet on anyones misfortune. It's dirty money." (not Alan as your dodgy edit suggests).
