Oh yeah, now you tell us after the match is well over. If celtic won you wouldn't have showed us this bet at all

It was an obvious bet. Scottish football not very strong as shown by Rangers results lately. By laying Celtic I was confident that Hamburg would get at least a draw.

I'll give you one now before it kicks off. Bohemians to beat Galway tonight. €100 @1.50.

If it was such an obvious bet why didn't you record it here before kick off?

Because I don't carry a computer around with me! You don't have to believe me. I posted the Benfica / Everton bet before kick off. I'm also giving you about 5 hours notice on the Bohemians match if thats enough!

I don't care how much notice you give us as long as the bet is up before kick off. I could easily turn 100 into 1 million by posting bets up after I've got to results. It seems pretty pointless if you do it like that.

OK from now on bets will be posted in plenty of time - just for you.

I read on one of those threads from the moderators , thats its preferred if the information is relayed here prior to off time .

It is definately frowned upon to be advising of bets,after the event

No need to be sarcastic about it.

Pointless doing it just for him, you'd be better off doing it for yourself and abide by the rules set out in the charter plus you'll get a bit of respect, that we all hope for, on the gambling forum.

The dude's only trying to help you out.

Good luck with it.

While I am on the thread I must ask how did you place the Celtic bet if you weren't online?

Chonaic · 24-10-2009 3:53am

No commission either?

Kontiki · 24-10-2009 11:03am

I have an account with betfair and just phoned it in. The reason why I didn't post the bet on time was because there was about 10 mins between the Everton game ending and the Celtic game starting.
