£25 Arsenal have a better heads up record against Liverpool, so for example say we beat you 2 - 0 at the Emirates and lose 2 - 1 away, Arsenal win in this scenario obviously. 

I'll take your proposition if you shorten it to 7 or 8 points and for £25


The first 3 sound good to me for sure. 


Is the £50 bet (Which is unlikely to happen) still on? 

Hmm, I'll take the first two. The third one is too risky for me.

I am not prepared to shorten it to 7-8 10 or no bet.

£50 bet made earlier is off, unless you bring it down to £25, as I'm only assigning £100 in total for this thing and want 4 bets.

Ok, first 2 bets are on for sure. 

I'll do 8 points and if it's 9 the bet is voided. 

I'll bring the latter bet down to £25.

Okay. That's 3 bets sorted then. The Cup bets and the double win bet. What happens if we go out in the same round/a double isn't achieved? Void?

The money goes to the forum due to the economic situation in Europe.

I still can't believe Laurencio said that.

Voided. 

When did Laurencio say that?

When he was shamelessly begging for donations because the Maestro overpaid initially for the forum (over 200 pounds, I believe). I'm guessing Laurencio then paid that much to buy it from him.

Scott I respect your support for Liverpool but I fear you will lose £100

Updated. 

This is a comfortable match-day for me, because if we lose, not only will I win some money, but we'll also still be joint top of the League in terms of points, so it's pretty stress-free knowing that we still won't be playing catch-up. 

Decided that I'd be happy with a draw tonight (which will put us back into 1st place) so instead of a draw-no-bet or a +1 goal handicap bet, I'm putting the £10 on a straight Swansea win, which gives a nice return of £36.

That's a very kyro road you're taking, betting against your team to ease the loss.

It's more, playing with fate.
