So they want to lay mug 8/1 bets with no chance of payout? Why offer odds on such crazy things, then cry foul because he ate the pie.
He ate the pie so they should pay out. No arguments of ifs and butts. If they stuck up 8/1 then why complain afterwards? |

Let's get him reinstated.

No doubt the bookie's PR men will be lapping up all that free publicity . They have very little integrity , you could just imagine them refusing to pay out if the goalie had eaten 2 pies . On the grounds that the bet mentioned 1 pie .

The bookmaking industry are actively disenfranchising people from being able to bet, for no other reason than that they might win, misrepresenting the way they do business at every turn, with total impunity, and an organisation whose mission statement is to ensure gambling is 'fair' is focussing its attention on a fat bloke eating a meat pie.
Genuinely, you couldn't write this stuff, imo... |

if they offer a price and get filled in more fool them. If they handed offered a price acting the Big I Am then he would still have probably had a nibble because some smart arse in Greggs had the foresight to chuck him a couple of grand to ensure whatever pastry he ate that it was wrapped in a Greggs bag. His ensuring the bookies took a hit is no different to in the know connections manipulating racing markets via the bookies and on the machine.

I think he should appeal on the grounds that it wasn't a pie,it was a pasty. He's eaten the evidence so they couldn't prove otherwise!
|

By:
It is astonishing when you think of all the swindlers and con artists in this world,the bankers,politicians,unscrupulous businessmen and,closer
to home,countless non-triers and betting coups that go unchallenged. Yet the full force of the law could well come down on a bloke for eating a pie! By the way,the way Arsenal played Sutton could have fielded 11 fat pie eating players and the score would have been the same! |

By:
so why didn't Bellamy get done for his golf swing goal scoring celebration, the bookies picked up on it and basically ensured he did it. GC picking on an easy victim, go after JP and Geraghty or Coleman for blatant not trying or attempting to achieve the best possible placing? F****** GC not fit for purpose, just another beano and pension fund 'jobs for the boys' type organisation. Go into any High St bookies and watch the degenerates feeding, shaking, rocking, punching, spitting on machines. Everyday we see drifters receive totally disinterested rides to correlate the assumption that today isn't the day but do they get involved, do they hell.
|
|
By:
hardened experienced punters accept the non triers rides as a hazard but think we know when to second guess connections and get it back with interest another day, I think we should get HK stewards in charge, after a few weeks of a less lenient, less inebriated stewarding maybe jockeys and trainers might get sick of bans and fines. Rather brutally I'd ban perceived non jiggers ( connections for 3-6 months but more importantly not all ow the horse to run for a year. Owners will try a bit more if they know such draconian punishment is seriously in the offing.

You're right factmachine, but eating that pie will almost certainly be the best thing that ever happened to the Sutton player if he's got even half a brain, imo...

Ridiculous... if he cannot eat a pie without the authorities calling foul, then the punter cannot win. Outrageous.

Whichever bookmaker has complained, they are an absolute disgrace to the bookmaking industry.

I'm puzzled is this any different from offering goalscorer odds could a player be sacked for scoring a goal and his mates bet him to do it i don't understand.

Probably got a few thousand acca chasing mugs to sign up to them today on the back of it. They won't give a toss about getting the bloke unemployed from it one bit. |
