OCTOBER
In October and November, most of the MUGS seemed to disappear off the face of the forum. Having said that, even though October was short on quantity, it was high on quality, especially one of my favourites, the first one below. Also pleasing was the fact that Thick Stoke Hater! mr fishfingers was also exposed for his MUG PUNTING. 142 USA to win Ryder Cup (Golf) - Return_Of_Dawsey Destined to become one of the all-time classic MUG bets this one! Even goes close to pushing the I_McHunt_Pro-Punter 1.01 busted bet on MK Dons to beat Bradford when already 3-0 up!! Dawsey strode confidently to the tee, resplendent in his crisply starched plus fours and announced to the betting world: America are absolutely destroying us right now. It looks like America will be 6-2 up overnight. LUMP everything you can on the yanks @ 1.55 Now, there's a confident man for you....already counting his winnings, and the prospect saying goodbye to his cardboard box under Charing Cross Bridge for a night in a comfy bed in the hostel. And a proper breakfast, no more licking the remnants off discarded Big Mac wrappers. The world looked on expectantly...... Dawsey, having used all his skills of observation, came to the conclusion that the USA were now in an even better position, and had to take the plunge again: ALL IN @ 1.23 AMERICA FREE MONIES Risking everything, including his signed Cristiano Ronaldo thong (languishing in a window in a nearby pawn shop - resplendent with skid marks), Dawsey sat back waiting for the inevitable to happen. And then, the inevitable did happen....things took a turn for the worse. Europe started winning, first gradually, fighting tooth and nail, and then the tide turned, the USA dam burst, and Martin Keymer sank the put that meant Europe retained the Ryder Cup against all the odds. When Tiger failed to hole out at the 18th, Europe were guaranteed victory! Imagine the scene, all the hobos and unwashed crowded around the Richer Sounds window with Dawsey (many of whom had followed him in on the USA) watching the drama unfold on screen....the sudden inevitable feeling of crushing defeat. They turn to look at their betting guru, who stares back at them with bloodshot, tear soaked eyes. Dawsey is contemplating how he can get his Cristiano thong back from the pawnbrokers. Right lads, £5 for a bu m, and if I get 20 takers, the skidmarked thong is mine again! Let's go lads, form an orderly queue! The curse of the FREE MONEY MUG bet strikes again! Don't let this one become buried! Keep 'em coming! ![]() 145 Lay Schalke v Arsenal (Football) - mrfishfingers A Thick Stoke Hater gets his just desserts: I am the Money King- And I bring a bet for all non-mugs on the forum. Both of you. Arsenal haven't been defeated at home against overseas opposition since 2003. 45 games. Including Milan (2), Barcelona (2), R Madrid and Juve. But the mugs out there are intent on giving you the money. So oblige by laying Schalke @ 3.9 You are welcome, Im spending my money on a new gazebo. This debacle was perfectly summarised by BruceWillis, so I'll leave it to him...... - OP starts free money thread with big stats quotes - Bleets on and on that it can't fail - Bet fails miserably - Lashes out at the winners like 666_v, denying that he even lost money - classic case of a huge mug Summary: OP is a huge mug End Keep 'em coming! ![]() 146 Celtic to beat Kilmarnock (Football) - thebrave 1.24 for the Famous Glasgow Celtic to beat that buncha Ayrshire diddies??? Really Choo choo all aboard Next stop the payoot windy, have I ever let you down Confused When Laugh And so the story unfolds.......... Kilmarnock beat Celtic 2-0 away from home - we should have known. And thus, another Epic Mug Bet is born. I waited a full hour at the payoot windy for thebrave, but alas, there was no sign of him! Keep 'em coming! ![]() |

NOVEMBER
Somewhat bizarrely, there were no looged Epic Mug bets in November. I had to resurrect an old classic in order to keep the punters happy..... A blast from the past 'Phoenix from the Ashes' style, to whet the appetite for things to come: 018 Sunderland to beat Middlesbro (Football) - I_McHunt_Pro-Punter Missing in Action! I_McHunt_Pro-Punter does a runner, a la AH Hunter after a Chelsea defeat, following yet another humiliating mug bet hits a dead end. Oh yes, King of the Mugs, I_McHunt_Pro-Punter shouted from the rooftops "DEAD CERT ALERT >> WEDNSDAY, THIS IS HOT STUFF". "2.14 IS A STEAL. SELL YOUR GRAN IF YOU NEED TOO, JUST MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ENOUGH ON. The number of toothless old haridans sold into the slave trade in the last several hours, and all for what.....diddly squat! Our favourite mug proves yet again he's unable to tip a wheelbarrow, but you never know, throw enough darts and all that! Keep 'em coming! ![]() Strap yourselves in, this is going to be fun! |

DECEMBER
The final month of an entire year of Epic Mug Bets; in truth December was a bit of a quiet month, but it did herald the emergence of potentially one of the MUGS of the future, in BEER BEER BEER SEX & BEER. Some say he is the reincarnation of incomparable MONEY TREE. Furthermore, another Thick Stoke Hater, mugmerised was immortalised as a mug punter by yours truly. And on that bombshell............... 149 Double Whammy mug bets on the horses (Horseracing) - BEER BEER BEER SEX & BEER The confident prediction: La danza place cert The outcome (Part I): 'ouch, not happy'. The chase: fingal bay to get me back on song. The outcome (Part II): 'was very poor run there'. 150 Chelsea to beat Corinthians (Football) - BEER BEER BEER SEX & BEER This mug punter rattles up an impressive hattrick in a late attempt to grab the Epic Mug Punter title. Free cash. Chelsea will win final. Pile in. Trust me they beat the braziliams. Just checked the result, and it looks like they lost? Keep 'em coming! 151 Andy Murray to win SPOTY (Other Sports) - mugmerised Promising to make many on the footie forum rich, mugmerised announced another sure fire winner: Andy Murray Will Win Sports Personality Of The Year 2012 You heard it here first lads, 17/1 Scots will pile in, English have warmed to him after Wimbledon and there have been many shocks in the past, Zara Phillips? Giggs? [remember the wrinkled one?} Rusedski? plus I can't see people voting for another cyclist after Cavendish last year, we don't like favourite in this country, we prefer underdogs. Feel free to leave a Thank-You note tonight. Murray couldn't even be @rsed to turn up to the event, he was too busy with his off season job as a pool attendant (with Lennox Lewis) in the USA somewhere! Even his logic about the Scots piling in failed to address the fact that at a cost of £1.50 per call, probably only two calls in total would have been received from North of the Border! Thankfully, he forgot to leave a forwarding address for the thank-you note! Keep 'em coming! 152 Al Sadd to beat Al Arabi (Football) - khhinji A late entry from a Quatari friend khhinji! It is a FREE money guys in QSL Al-arabi vs Al-sadd khhinji I'm 100% sure about Al-sadd victory tonight they want to finish this of before the international break as we know al sadd are in form and they never lost in the first round 11 win out of 12 al arabi struggling with their team and they have change 3 managers from the binging of this season Try to put as much as you can in al sadd because they will repeat their victory earlier this season the game will start NOW ,and don't forget to thank me However, things didn't pan out as the OP expected, with Al Arabi taking a 1-0 lead, and things took a turn for the worst, when they extended this lead to 2-0. Despite this, khhinji re-assured all the people who had followed his advice, and gone in baws deep with: I'm Qatari and I'm an expert in this league Al sadd will win this No doubt, hopes were raised when Al Sadd pulled one back, but these hopes were cruelly dashed, as the home team eventually romped away to a 4-2 victory. Now, indeed those who had loaded up their full bank on As Sadd, were now All Sad ............the OP might have been from Quatar, but this really stuck in the throat of those now wandering the streets homeless after their life savings were destroyed! Never mind...the OP will just need to find another oil well! Keep 'em coming! ![]() |

EMPOTY - Epic Mug Punter Of The Year
Horse Racing Expert - or whatever other pseudonyms he used, just for the sheer number (unless thats a seperate award) EMBOTY - Epic Mug Bet Of The Year My favorite bet by far was the University Boat Race one just because so much kept going wrong, can't remeber who did it though (there might even have been two if memory serves) |

Asking who should win the EMPOTY is like asking who should win the Ballon D'or. The HorseRacingClown has had as many mug punts as Messi has had goals
Every young mug wants to be HRE, though there are some out there that think Money Tree/Beer would be top mug if certain things were different. The Ronaldo of mug punting, always in HRE's shadow ![]() |

By:
EMBOTY for me would have to be McHunts, because for sheer awfulness it can't be beat, and is so funny. Would still love to know how he managed to green out of a 1.01 after Brentford had pulled a goal back

over on the horseracing thread today we have a promising newcomer in "triumph or agony "(think it may be agony for his followers ) never heard anything from this fella before but he has shown immense promise with his "get on these thread " ,what is impressive is that he does not mess about with a piffling single or double ,he goes straight in with a short priced fav treble on the last 3 horse races of the day and hits the bullseye first time with 3 stunning losers (takes some doing to get 3 shorties turned over in 3 races on the bounce ),i dont know if its his first post but if it is its an impressive start .
he is a bit green and obviously needs tutoring in mugginess as he has not used any' "free money "or "all in full bank job " superlatives yet, but that will come with expierience and all mugs have to start somewhere , still a lot to learn but a start full of promise and one to watch for next seasons epic mugbets thread . |

And the winner, a formality really.............with a staggering 75% of all votes cast..... HorseRacingExpert No one came close to the sheer volume of MUG bets and consistency of incorrect predictions as this fellow. We may never see the likes of him again in MUG PUNTING history! His will be the benchmark against which all future MUG PUNTERS will be judged. HorseRacingExpert ...I salute you as the best! |

And with that, the Epic Mug Bets 2012 thread draws to a close.
Thanks to all the MUGS, without whom this thread would not have been possible. And thanks also to my several 'informers' who have brought MUG punts to my attention when they might otherwise have escaped my clutches. You know who you are. All that remains is for me to hand over the mantle to JC1326, who I hope will take over my role for 2013, and help keep the streets clean of mug punters! |
