just had a search over the forum (havent been on since middle/late january) and seen there was a few people who were talking about my bet!
Its still running, its to win every game, and i backed it for £10 at 2500/1! there are a few people who managed to get 10000/1! before ladbrokes realised this was a big msitake! Laddies stand to lose 2.5 mil if this pisses in!
Celtic have been hammering sides away from home, however the goals have dried up at celtic park!!
9 games to go, and the bet is currently 5/1! Ladbrokes PR guy said back in october that there was more chance of Mcdonalds scrapping burgers than this bet coming up!
I tweeted him this quote with a ;) , he replied saying they are getting very worried about this one!
Heres my dilema, 9 games and i win 25k, however if was able to settle for around 2-4k (4k being very wishful)
it would be better to put all that money on the remaining games seperately (ie. what ever i win on one game with the full stake of my settlement, i put the whole lot on the next game) it would actually work out better odds than what im currently getting, taking in to account celtic would be 1.3sh for any home game , and 1.5 for aways, and old firms being 1.8sh.
just thought id give yous guys an update!
Im a 22 year old skint! who follows the glorious glasgow celtic :) will be an epic ending to my final year at uni if it comes in!!

i remember reading about your bet a bit ago, forgot about it and dont really follow scottish footy that much so didnt realise it was still runnning! id be getting worried now mate! but anyways as you stand to lose 25000 if they lose, what are you doing?? are you laying them every game so if they do lose you will at least make some money?? but no offence but have you got enough money in your bank on here to lay them for large amounts for the last 9 games?

rangers getting docked so many points should be a factor, in the last few games
celtic will switch off eventually unless Lennon is mad keen to win every game any tricky away trips to sides looking to stay up? |

By:
Just been looking through their fixtures, the last time they failed to win was the 29th October!!
And they haven't conceded an away goal since the 6th november! Tough league! |

dundee utd will be the team that stops ur bet !!!
but good luck hope it comes in for u |

Great bet and well spotted.
As someone who has been in the game a while, take it from me, trade the bet. It might be more difficult than you think, though. I'd expect the odds to come right down if they manage to beat Rangers at Ibrox next time, you're looking at an 8/1 shot then. If it gets that far, you'll have some real bargaining power. Even if the bet comes up, it's good practice to have traded some of it and if you're good at spotting value, the 4k you might take out of it can be the start of a proper betting bank. |

See if Lads will settle bet now for 10 k -no harm in asking is there?

I remember your origonal post.....good luck Sir

By:
Hang in there a bit longer for more bargaining power with the bookie if you can manage to strike up a deal with say 4-5 games left then go for it.
good luck |

good luck mate.. hope you win it .. KEEP THE FAITH !

By:
Massiodonati - I have no useful advice for you, but did want to wish you all the best. I'll follow celtics results closely.
|
|
By:
if they are offering 5/1 then you could lay out for a 5th of the profit so 5k, just a shame you cant lay at ladbrokes
 |
|
By:
Nice bet and good luck with it.
My advice would also be to start preparing to lay..if you can. |
|
By:
Would love this to come in for you, all the best with it.

Click on the "cash out" button!
 Squeekybum time mate, good luck!  |
|
By:
Cash out probably offers him a red!
|

By:
Why don't you make an offer on here at Betfair for 5-6 K
Some rich punter might settle it for you and take the risk . You get out at 5k and they take the risk for 25K He puts the 5k in an escrow account for you and you send him the bet slip when cleared He gets 5/1 shot on a very good bet |
|
By:
you wont get another chance to make 25k for a tenner like this ,let it run a lttle longer
there is little more u can do unless u have funds to start laying off ,in which case you could ask bf to put a win out market up ,they would do that for you as there would probably be a bit of interest anyway ,g luck ... |

What was the bet? To win every league game from the start of 2012 to end of the season?

pretty sure it was before that goldcup, think it was around the time celtic were about 10 points down on rangers and everyone was saying the league was already over and rangers had it won

Anyone whose in with a chance of winning 25k from a high street bookie for a fiver has my vote,good luck m8

what was this bet for ?
|
|
By:
celtic to win every game left in the season, from a date i dont know but its been a while
|
|
By:
bloody hell this could bean epic bet good luck mate, the good thing in your favour if you are laying them every game they will be reasonably short in all there games hence not a large payout if they win (apart from rangers) good luck mate il watch on with interest!!

A win on Saturday should be no problem. Celtic always get the decisions at Aberdeen. You name it, Celtic get it, and if they don't get it, it's a conspiracy. They never lose fair and square, ever. No doubt Lennon will have his boys primed to lose their balance in the box at every opportunity this weekend.
Hopefully Craig Broon has the balls to take the players off once we get our usual penalty and red card given against us. |

By:
All the best with this 1 my thoughts would be to play safe if you can trade out with 4k remember that is not a bad return for a tenner n a bird in the hand is worth more than 25 birds in that hairy bush of hers
 if your skint take the $$$ be a winner it,s greed that makes us losers right ? good luck to the guys on the 10000/1 with sadbrooks the bookies get a slap love it(IF it happens ?) |

Good Luck with your Bet are you on to Win Every Game or to remain unbeaten till the end of the Season ? I took the latter at 100/1 again with Laddies in early January , still have some tricky Away Days to come but we dont have to face any Teams in the Relegation Fight once the Split kicks in , Awe Ra Best

sorry to p i ss you off so much I hadn't noticed that , you must be a pleasure to live with ?

When he refers to 9 games left this means League games. Cup games don't count in his bet. Celtic have a BIG squad so there will be no let up. I know Lenny wants to win every game that is left. We have a max of 13 games left which includes the 2 Cups.
All the best with the bet. If it comes in u will be able to buy loads of Ice Cream & Jelly |

Good luck fella.
KTF Cash out if you can, very unlikely Celtic will win every game especially if Hooper picks up a knock or two or gets rested for finals and the like. |
