FREE £1000 BET!

Post by gus ceasar is a legend »

Not really!

If I was in a position though to offer you a free £1000 bet and gave you evens on both Arsenal finishing first and second place in the league what would you go for?

Try and vote with your heads and not your heart!

Well the minute Henry left I got 12-1 , I bet £10 (as always with bets when it looks like you are going to win you wished you had betted more!)
So Id be quite happy if we came first ! :wink:

First. If look at the strength depth of our squad, there's no doubt we are better positioned that our title rivals to maintain a challenge.

Is that the sort of thing you mean?

Anyway, where is 3rd place as an option? :wink: 8)

The thing about having a 5pt lead is that if we finish anywhere other than 1st it will be a huge disappointment now.

At the start of the season we would all have been delighted with a top 3 finish.Now 2nd place would seem like faliure.

Have had to go with second. I know that the very minute I suggest we might win it is the same time that we'll start f*cking things up. :roll:

I VOTED 2ND PLACE BECAUSE A) I DIDN'T WANT TO JINX US AND B) EITHER WAY I WOULD BE A WINNER!! IF WE WIN THE LEAGUE I'M OVER THE MOON; IF WE DON'T I'M £1,000 BETTER OFF!! 8)

BY THE WAY - FANTASTIC TOPIC GUS AND DEFINATELY BETTER THAN ANY OF STEARMASTERS' POLLS!! :wink: :lol: :wink:

The thread headline is FREE £i000 bet, which you have renaged on pleading povertry as your reason

I and many others are seriously pissed off that you would mislead us in this way. I hope that the many solicitors on this forum are busily preparing their briefs for the litigation which is sure to follow
