Default Clever move ??? I think so!!!

The punter who stood to win lots of dosh has cashed out early.

He has taken £29,000 and considering his minimal stake thats a result .

Ok he could have had a heluva lot more if Leicester City win the League but i think he has boxed clever .

If your not interested in football this threads not for you.

Stupid game......bunch of over paid prima donnas kicking a bag of air about




Only kidding

Your probably right but if Leicester (and won't that be great for the neutrals) do win the league I bet he will be kicking himself a little bit

My guess is his wife has been nipping his head .

He was offered £3,000 a few weeks back and i bet hes glad he refused it .

Good luck to the lad

Worst case scenario - Leicester don't win the title, and he's waved goodbye to £100K....... he'll be gutted.

Best case Scenario - Leicester win the title, he's won £100k

What he's "settled" for - £29k already in his pocket, and he can now enjoy the title run in without the added pressure of losing £100k. If Leicester do win, that's an added bonus.

As an Arsenal supporter, believe it or not, I want Leicester to win it. It'll be sticking 2 fingers up to all the teams (mine included) that believe spending a fortune is the only way to win the title. Plenty of teams have spent a fortune over the years and won nothing - You've also got to play as a team.

I think he has done the sensible thing, £20 odd grand is not to be sniffed at, unless you're an overpaid footballer of course

I wish he had got more the 29k but its a long way from 100k. to a point I hope lecister don't win the title so that his decision becomes the right one.
