I know its a big ask, but pray for United to win league...

[big screen satellite]

ok so here's the deal

on August 11th i placed a bet

it was a £5 each way accumulator on the outcome of the top 4 Leagues in England,

I chose

MK Dons (8/1) for League 2 - which they won
Swansea (10/1) for League 1 - which they won
West Brom (15/2) for the Championship - which they won

and finally

Man United (11/8) for the premiership

now all i need is United to finish top of the teague to win the bet - but the bastards are holding out to do so until the last day of the season - and now i'm panicking!! My Own team could let me down...

now ordinarily a bet isn't worth a great deal of money, but the outcome of this accumulator if all teams win is £10,200!!!! (if United come second i still get £200 but thats nothing in comparisson)

so all i ask is that U dirts pray for me - its worth some money :)

usually United vs Wigan would be a shoe-in but i can't help thinking the season has some twists....

Hahaha! reminds me of a couple of years back when one of our mates - a hammers fan, bet on the cup final score being 3-2 to the hammers and in injury time was set to pick up £920 - that is until Gerrard scored! we took the piss something rotten for weeks:D:D we bought him a couple of consolation pints but he's never forgotten and now loves it when liverpool lose:).good luck on sunday mate, i would hate to see them others buy another title....

[//\/\/]

i was hoping, of the 2, you'd win it even before this - but good luck - i'd love it if it comes off for you!

I don't pray anyway. Does chanting count?;)

[ffolkes]

enjoy your pounds m8

This sort of story has The Sun's feel good/rubbish page 3 story written all over it. Hope you win it for the money and for Utd. At least you bloody lot haven't bought your way to the top!

[spacejunk]

Done deal mate! Spread the dirt!:D

MAN U !!!!

[IsiliRunite]

I can not grant you this wish.

[jole]

Even though i dont really like Man Utd i d like u to win it because i hate Chelsea even more lol.
U should make a counter bet on Wigan so u at least get something if Manchester loses.

i'm thinking about it....

wigan are 14/1 to win and the draw is 11/2 (best odds i've found)

[Rog]

at those odds you could afford a generous 20 or so on the wigan win and draw so that whatever the result you still come out very much ahead......but it's a big ask to bet against your own team.......:D

[big screen satellite]

i could afford to back about much more with the prospect of £10K - but its hard to back against united - surely they can do it without backing against them....

[Ally]

I'll be rooting for you ;)

[Dirty0900]

Drinks are on you Matt. Congrats.

[BeautifulBurnout]

Nice one, mate :D

[rayray]

told your story today watching the matches - we all laughed at the end
let us know who you pick next year (but a little bit earlier : )

[//\/\/]

all down to brighton for a pint, then?!

congratulations - you putting it all on the champions league?

[chuck]

nice one matt.

don't drink it all on one weekend!

[big screen satellite]

££££$$$$$$

Kcerrrr kching!!

nice one - i couldn't watch it - i listened in instead - i was worried until we scored our second on 80 minutes.... sweaty day it was...

£10,212.93 to be precise was what i banked...

now gonna have a nice holiday...

i never win anything big so its a happy day

most won on a bet previously was £744

kinda not yet sunk in properly - but thats because its not been handed to me in cash :)

[sanblaster]

[//\/\/]

he's fucking buying norman cook's restaurant!

[big screen satellite]

ok then who wants a beer...?

[Rog]

:Dmine's a carling cold mate! enjoy the winnings!:D

[chuck]

I'll have anything except for the sponsor's lager.

I can recommend a few nice red wines tho.

[sanblaster]

Yeah wtf Rog what's wrong with you mate? Carling ftl!


On the other side, Matt could afford to buy approximately 25,000 cans of that crap.... Enough tin to build a third pier!

[Rog]

nothing wrong with a cold carling..........if i drink premium lager with the amount i drink i would be pissed all the bloody time!:p

[Dirty0900]

Bottle of Black Sheep please

You could give the Dutchs some credit, drink Grolsch and do yourself a favour all in once!


Or you could switch to breezers too.... :P:eek:

[//\/\/]
