It's all about the Sportsbook, they don't want people punting on here when Sportsbook can take those bets.

doesn't sound right , they have had no technical limitations for over 8 years or more and technology only improves .

are you sure 1830 ?

Just reading the replies.
Got me thinking I might have recieved some sort of PHISHING email.
Gone back in to check.

Only rason I can think Ive receved it before others is because I place one everyday for a decent stake.

Cheers longbridge ,but is a permed multi not dutched on here ?
By:

When: 22 Aug 19 15:30
@breadnbutter - yes, you get dutching with multiple selections (win only), I rather like that.  CAa see it would be good to have an option to choose to perm instead, but I guess we're out of time for that.

Everyone who says "I don't believe the technical limtations story" - look at it?  It looks like the website looked when I got involved here nearly a decade ago, it's not secure/https, I haven't seen any development on it since they introduced EW multis in 2011ish (unless you count turning off Football multis).

I would not be in the least surprised if some component they are using has run off the end of supplier support or security patches or the like.

Shame though, it's a good product for having a £2 fun bet on an otherwise quiet afternoon.

Long since  given up backing EW multiples on here , much more prefer to back a win bet then double up the stake on he place only market far more profitable , all  they will make me do is give my win bet a "purple" ticket

Actually got three sails  up on one of those windmills on here  over a year ago 15.72 ,19.00 , 27.6 and then a 2 hour sweat which resulted in CryCryespecially as the last one went off at 102.00 but was never in it.would have been the bet of a lifetime for peanuts

Back when I was first on here in 2010, a L15 I only checked that evening - got 3 out of 4 and won a little over £100 - 4th leg was 70-something BSP and second by a head or less - and that was before they introduced EW multiples.

Pretty sure I'm well down on them over the years, but they've been a good bit of fun between the more serious stuff.
