tight Sod

I've saved more than a grand by not visiting his local shop for the last month. He must be feeling the pinch.

Try putting a football bet on for more than £50 - at, say, 4/5 - and they'll tell you they have to ring it through to get authorisation. Then they'll tell you that you can have the first £10 at 4/5, and the other £40 at 4/11.

Dirty, rotten, filthy bastards.

Exactly all bookies are the same. Well there not bookmakers anymore there wankers

why not just put 10 or 20 on and then another 10 or 20 a minute later and so on?

Compleate non story, getting a medal in a team event and individual medals are two different prices, the question is did they have a market that was including team medals or one that combined all possible medals?

It is buyer beware to what the market terms are.

For the sake of PR i'd of thought they would just pay at the team medal price.

Fred is a cunt. That cut out pic of him in his shops is thing I want to punch most in the world, other than him. Just give me 1 shot, I would chin that smug wanker to perfection.

Cos the staff would remember you. They are trained to avoid bets now and just promote fobts

is it just footy bets you have a problem with? maybe they don't like 2 horse races much.

i can't imagine a bookies in my town refusing 50 quid on a horse

Not straight away mate but you have a few winners. I am limited to £5 Ew in corals here or £10 on the nose wtf?

fiver ew , got to be fucking kidding Betch?

No!

must have rinsed them for a nice few bob then

No regular racegoing punter I know at any racetrack will back with betfred. That goes goes for the tote too.

Is it right to have a bookmaker running the tote? I swear the gap between tote odds and sp is narrowing all the time....and miraculously just before the off!! They are clearly just matching the value with exchanges.

Send a pal in?
