Sidney's imaginary bets thread - for mug punters only

[QUOTE=“caoimhaoin, post: 1063027, member: 273”]Two betting related stories.
I met A club mate of mine yesterday and he works for a bookies, he’s a qualified acturist. Anyway he said if TTK is kosher and really works for a bookies he’d be fired immediately if his posting was ever seen here.

Other story. A mate of mine, who was for a long time an over intelligent waster who rarely had a job, recently got picked up by a financial analysis company based on his betting prowess. He has spent all his time analyzing and betting (and smoking copious amounts of weed) over a few years and has become extremely good at it. Thru a friend of a friend he got asked in. On a retainer and bonus money now, still can work from home. For some being a total waster can work out.[/QUOTE]i’d say he suffers from savage mental health issues

Uh oh. I see Tyrone are not playing St. Mary’s tomorrow as per my bet, they’re playing Antrim, yet Paddy Power have the listing as “Tyrone v St. Mary’s”.

This is a mug mistake from both me and Paddy Power.
