I agree its dishonest and not nice behaviour. I slightly disagree that its “theft” for me its more like a debt in terms of legal situation imo. But im by no means an expert.

Guy hands you a nice windfall, possession is 9/10ths of the law, don't think a 'robbery' has taken place.

Dumber and Dumber stating everyone makes mistakes tobymugs o just to clarify, you layed COT for 155k or more but came out with an 11k profit. You own a betting system valued at 600k + but finished in last place in a Div2 tipping comp. and caught 2 huge tuna that coincidentally the same fish were caught by someone else. 4 large mistakes ear from the forum fantasist.  |

It's dishonest to take the money, I would highlight it and maybe expect a token gesture from the bookie, chance would be a fine thing, pre-electronic boards and tickets, the bookies used to fleece the punter at every opportunity with the 'How much are you expecting Sir? OK, here's your money, well done.'

Disgusting imv…..
What type would accept the amount knowing it was wrong…….only a r@dent imo…. The country is infested with undesirable species hibb,you couldn’t show them a birds nest… I can’t believe a person stood and collected that amount knowing fine well it was wrong ffs.. I couldn’t,not in a million,when the person received the ticket first thing they would do is check it…..they knew.. Taking something that doesn’t belong to you is 100% dishonest…..only the undesirable would take it and run….. I wonder if the r@dent continued to punt or did the gutless disappearing act…..probably walked passed the pitch smirking…. Anyway you look at it….the pointed nose looking out of the end of the drain pipe….tbh… ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- riled = make (someone) annoyed or irritated. sounds like riled is the word tbh aceform. |

Riled lol in the middle of making dinner for later….. |
|
By:
What if the ticket owner gave it to someone else to pick up gor him ?
Everyone is assuming the person picking up the winnings must have known it was an overpayment which is not necessarily true. |

* For him.

One thing that does rile me hibb admittedly….plastic overpaid and overated football players ignoring young fans getting off the team coach…..just witnessed the Newcastle players ignoring the fans…apart from one

By:
Bookie take responsibility, now there would be a fine thing to see, after they and their staff made a **** up
Get over it Banks, just like all the poor punters usually have to, if taking poor odds from 'bookies' for years... |

I do believe in Karma
A few years ago Gary Wiltshire overpaid me at Chepstow races... I'd had a bet in Euros and he paid me the winnings in pounds which at the time was about 25% more I told him and he recalculated and thanked me I knew him to chat to anyway About a month later he was standing at a ptp near Hereford, no electricity so got the old numbered card as your ticket. When I went to collect, the clerk had put it against the wrong horse. Gary paid me out no problems. |

What does it take to smile at a fan ffs….and scribble a name…
I remember Ian Durrant at an old timers game in Whitburn ignoring a young fan….dreadful scenes….of course me telling him his sidekick wasn’t best pleased….. |
|
By:
Durrant came across as a right waste of space imv aceform...
|
|
By:
Yes he was very ignorant tbf….not the most handsome individual…..he stared at me at Hamilton a good time afterwards until I asked him what the attraction was lol…..I wasn’t his favourite tbh….
