Useless gambling fucktard strikes again

Apologies for lack of updates over te past couple of weeks, but I've had a few problems. Thankfully my saint of a wife has stood by me once more - far more than I deserve. It started when the silly fuckers at Halifax sent my new credit card card through. I've spent ages trying to repair my credit image and then when I finally do, I apply for a card and they give me a £5k credit limit. The whole fucking world knows I can't be trusted with that kind of money. Anyhow, to cut a long story shrt and you've probably already guessed ... I maxed it out :-(

I logged onto a new Paddy Power account to take advantage of a free £25 bet and couldn't stop myself playing roulette. I blew the whole lot and more (for some reason let me go to £6k before declining) in a very short time. I'm a complete fucktard I know and it's worse than any drug as its legal and readily available. I know I sound like a cunt, but I've worked really hard to avoid temptation for ages becasue I can't stop myself and then I fucking do something that fucking spastic wouldn't do.

I have a bit of stuff to put on here, but I have managed to sort our finances and will do a proper update in a couple of days when I have my head sorted.

Hope you're all well, good luck

The nearly man once more

Usual beting shit and some more aftertiming to follow in 'how I nearly won'! Last week I put a Canadian on the Irish lottery as I have done for about the past six weeks or so. They always ask if you want the slip back as many play the same numbers. I usually do too, but this week I changed two of them ... guess what? Four numbers for my £13 stake would have returned over £4k if I had stuck ... I got £26.50 :-(

Tonight's game (Villa v Man City) I predicted either Barry or Dunne for first goal and a score of 1-1 or 2-1 either way. Six perms so I said to Caroline I was putting these on when returning from collecting our parents from the airport. Having driven straight past and not being arsed to turn around through traffic, I said fuck it as it probably won't come in ... a few hours later and Dunne 1-1 means I picked and didn't collect from a 100/1+ winning selection ... beyond fucking silly now - I really am destined to remain poor forever.

Watching that match I was surprised at the Villa crowds reaction to Barry. I know some genuinely will appreciate him but what kind of utter cunt boos constantly to a player who gave over ten years service, I think played 300-400 games many as captain and who I remember a mate of mine saying with last seasons speculation, that he was probably one contract away from becoming a legend rather than just one of their better players? It's bizarre when you think he performed well throughout his time there, was signed for nothing as an apprentice and moved on for a £12m fee ... I wish Coventry had a few of those. Don't get me wrong, plenty of idiots at the Ricoh too, but the only former players I would really like to give stick to are the mudering cunt Lee Hughes and Craig Bellend who deserves eerything he gets and more.

I've just finished watching a re-run of Derren Brown's predict the roulette wheel show from last week. Normally I like him but this last series has shown how much he was run out of ideas and they are so far fetched that they are no longer entertaining. A shame really because he's obviously very clever and good at what he does, albeit mainly to unsuspecting bimbos and attention seeking cunts.

That's pretty much it really after an uneventful few days. Had a couple of mates around for beer and pizza on Friday, a quiet weekend and then collected parents and in-laws from the airport today who thankfully are all still speaking to eachother.

Good luck
Rob

Belated mug acca

Apologies, I've actually been busy for once ... although not too busy to fuck about here and meet my mate in the pub for lunch :-)

Anhow if you ant some value again, then Bolton at home to Spurs is far too generous at 7/2, so I'll swerve that one and tip up some more losers instead:

Man Utd
Sheff Utd
Newcastle
Southampton

Will be an acca on the four and also on six including ~Everton and Arsenal for Sunday.

The not so mighty Sky Blues have an early kick off against the inbreds from Incester at the other end of the M69. 12.30 kick off at the Ricoh and hopefully I'll manage to get my car out of the car park before one of the 'Baby Squad' LOOOOL (Danny Dyer probably thinks they're pwoppa nawty) manages to smash my windows!

Good luck
Rob

Absolute fucking joke how sick I run

Guess what? Another cunting loser to add to the collection!

I had £100 on Ipswich at 6.2 and the plan was that I wanted to lay in running at odds on if I got the chance. I didn't even know that they don't open up the Championship games for i/r betting although they do for a ridiculous ten minutes at half time. Why the fuck they don't just leave them up like other markets goodness only knows as the HT action shows there is a demand for it. Fuckers! Anyhow, I could have taken 2.3 at HT and was on phone to mate who put me up £100 at Evs and then a reluctant 2.1 that never got matched, only greed for another £20 but I thought that was not value (however it would have saved me a headache and a bollocking at home). 3-1 up and 13 minutes to go and they go and finsih 3-3 (deflected header in injury time oh joy!).

It's the nature of the loss that annoyed and me not the bet as I always believed it was probably a loser pre kick-off. I still think it was terrific value at that price ... not that the Mrs saw it that way, when I explained that despite being us skint, I was putting £100 on a team that I expected to lose ... I do understand her point and I know I'm a cunt with betting but when I said that I would do it again because I thought 3/1 was a fair price it was red rag to a bull. They just think differently to us (a different breed :-) ) although at times it's probably as well they do to keep us on the straight and narrow and sometimes I reckon it's best not to try and explain as never the twain shall meet.

It was the only bet I had on the footie too and that was a saving grace as I fancied an Arsenal, Barcelona and Leeds treble at 2.5 that would have gone down courtesy of Leeds.

At least Cov won and showed some heart to come back from 2-1 down. At the time I didn't give a fuck but on reflection it was a good away win.

Good luck
Rob

Ipswich at 6.2 ???

After yet another standard weekend of shit, with bets going down and Coventry failing to win (lucky to get a last minute draw) means it’s the usual early week update of me moaning again. Perhaps just as well that the new Credit Card didn’t arrive as I’d have managed to give it an early hammering.

There are some mid-week games this week that look tasty and I’m tempted with a decent single on Ipswich. Don’t get me wrong, they’re in disarray and have a cunt for a manager, but as one of the pre-season favourites for promotion and with some good players, then I don’t care how out of form they are, they should not be available at the quoted prices. The Championship is a league where on their day pretty much any team can beat another (I think currently there are about 14 teams separated by approx 5 points in the middle). Despite a poor start Ipswich are not that bad and having seen Sheffield United too, they’re not outstanding (Coventry beat them both!). SU have got home advantage, but Ipswich are available at over 5/1 and that price is simply wrong. Even if you think that they will lose then there is no way they should be that price and value should always be backed. I’m only a small/average punter, but has to be worth a ton in my book as there are very few games in that league (possibly Barnsley at St James) that should be quoted at those kind of odds. Don’t blame me if I’m wrong, hope you get on and we share some success.

Before I finish on football, I’m personally getting singled out and draped (it’s my new word for dreamteam rape) on my players scores. I’m actually doing ok mainly thanks to messes Rooney and Torres but each week I’m being victimised in the scoring. Fabregas keeps getting rated as a 6 (despite the scums sister paper NoTW rating him as a 7) and similar with Hart in goal. They took a goal off Turner a couple of weeks back and then this week made Keane the star player over Torres because he scored a penalty more. Torres hat-trick was far classier. I’ve got 390 points at the time of writing and second place in the works one with 60 odd people in so a few hopefully coming my way in May but if the cunts weren’t screwing me over I’m sure I would be leading. I’m being handicapped through my own fault too by selecting Walcott and he has yet to play this season. My team ‘Clingans on Ricoh’ is: Hart, Cahill, Ricketts, Turner, Bramble, Walcott, Fabregas, Gerrard, Owen, Torres and Rooney. Look out for me in May winning £100k :-)

I’ve dropped my parents and in-laws off at the airport this morning for a week away in Majorca. I’m fucking dreading it tbh. They have been away before but my M-in-law is a fucktard at the best of times (no 1970’s Les Dawson humour, she really is and I could dedicate a whole blog just to her) and I have a horrible feeling something will go tits up. If it does, then family parties back home could be a problem but we’ll worry about that if and when it happens.

Fucking robbing airport cunts even charge for a set-down now. I used to dump them outside departures and that was it, now they’ve changed it all around and I have to go into a car park and pay a quid for up to 15 minutes. I know it’s only a quid, but it’s a fucking cheek and as I had no idea and came out in shorts and tee shirt at that time of morning, I had no cash and it could have presented me with a problem. Fortunately my Dad was better prepared and knew about it and handed me a couple of coins. With the broken down charges from the budget airlines I bet the cunts would charge you for breathing oxygen if they thought it could be measured.

Anyhow at work and I guess I should probably do a bit, particularly as I was late in again. Good luck

Mug acca - nearly forgot!

In all my excitement ranting on about the ‘bizzies’ I forgot to offer you this weeks tips. I know that it’s the only reason you read as I’m so successful and you will want to share in my wealth! :-)

Anyhow, it looks far too easy again this week (it always does on a Friday!) and all the short things look good things, so can we weed out the banana skins? I doubt it but I’ll try:

Main bet: Tottenham, WBA, Charlton, Huddersfield and Bournemouth. 13/2 available on-line or 5/1 in the shops.

For long list only, I’m also including: Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man Utd, Notts Co, Celtic, Rangers. The twelve-fold acca returns 70/1 online (probably 50s in the shops) so worth a small investment.

Good luck
Rob

Police Cuntstubbles

The police (and I don’t mean Sting and his tree hugging cronies) seem to get more incompetent with each day that passes. Tbh I get the impression that it’s either intentional or they really are the most useless bunch of fucktards to walk the planet. I have my own reasons for disliking them (and I’m no criminal before you get that idea) in that I’ve dealt with them very little in my life and each time they’ve fucked me over.

I can’t be bothered to scan back over old posts and therefore I apologise if I’ve told you any of this before on here. I’ve called them once when some cunt was trying to break into the flat where we first lived after getting married. I went downstairs with the butt end of a snooker cue because I dint know if they were pissed or how many there were etc and I couldn’t see through a solid door. As I opened and raised my arm, the police suddenly appeared and shout for me to put it down or they’re having me. The guy trying to break in wasn’t even nicked and was sent on his way.

The next occasion I was involved with them was after a football end of season do when some local nutters turned up at the same venue and it all kicked off after hours. They smashed the place up, not right but fine it happens. They had a bit of a scrap too which happens every Saturday in every town in the country, but again no real problem. What I objected to was one guy laying on the floor whose head they stamped on and so hard that you could see the trainer print left on his face. I’m no grass but when someone is down that’s it as far as I’m concerned and you don’t do that.

The Police arrive and everyone suddenly goes all Arsene Wenger for fear of reprisals and won’t speak up. Bollocks that’s not right and I’d want someone to speak up for me so I gave forward their names. The following week I get wind that these wankers are looking for me and it was an uneasy time. The reason they were after me was that one of the coppers knew theses cunts and told them who gave their name.

I wasn’t fucking having that so I phoned up the local constabulary headquarters to make a formal complaint about the cunt and spoke to one of the big noises who pretty much called me a liar and said that one of their officers wouldn’t do that! Utter fucking cunts and they wonder why they get no respect. Don’t get me wrong I’m not envious of the inner city problems and gangs with guns etc, but that doesn’t affect where I live and I think it takes a special kind of cunt these days to want to join up. I now wouldn’t help if I saw six people kicking the shit out of one … but mainly because six is probably enough.

Add to that the fact that when I was pulled for speeding (I overtook an unmarked car and the car they were following but still only at 97mph) and I was read the riot act like a common criminal. It made the ‘In the courts’ section of the local rag where I was given 5 points and £365 fine. No problem I deserved that, but what riled me was the one above me in the paper, five counts of theft, one of assault and one of drugs possession - £125 fine and six months suspended. Below me was a cunt with no tax, insurance, MoT or licence and he only gets a £150 fine. Complete fucking joke.

Anyhow what prompted this row was seeing these bungling cunts on the news last night. I didn’t think they could surpass the stupidity of the Scottish police who were looking for a missing guy and found him 10 days later in the hedge at the bottom of his garden after spending thousands on overtime (http://news.scotsman.com/latestnews/Shock-at-police-failure-to.4674841.jp) … but they have. Yesterday they gave us this gem: “Pc David Micklethwaite, who had failed a gun training course, mistakenly loaded a powerful Magnum .44 revolver with a live round from an old Quality Street tin. The 52-year-old then pulled the trigger while pointing it at a civilian colleague during one of his classroom tutorials. He was fined £8,000. The bullet hit Keith Tilbury, 51, at Thames Valley constabulary headquarters in Kidlington, Oxfordshire, and caused devastating injuries, Mr Tilbury, who used to shoot for Britain, underwent five hours of life-saving surgery for an exploded bowel and kidney, as well as lung and liver damage.” Well played you fucktard!

Good luck
Rob

Long winter slog ahead :-(

I’ve had some time off work (hence no updates for a few days) and sadly that’s all of my annual leave now gone until Christmas. Absolute fucking joke that I have to use holidays up when I want time off for hangovers etc. In the past I just phoned in sick but as we now don’t get paid, I either lose some leave or lose cash. I took it this week as apart from the last chances of some decent weather, it was Amelia’s second birthday on Sunday and although we’ve not been away this time we had some family time together which made a nice change.

Once again I’ve come back to a shitload of work that no cunt has looked at. It won’t take me too long to catch up but they’ve not even attempted to do the important stuff. Utter shitcunts.

You may have noticed last weekend that Cov lost and my bet went down yet again although I did kind of have a win. I managed to make the early kick off and Rangers drew 0-0. When this normally happens, I end up putting the bet on again for the rest of the games still to come, but Saturday I just thought bollocks to it. Perhaps as well I did as Notts Co failed and in my book a bet saved is as good as a win (I’m clinging onto any small victory at the moment) :-) Not had another bet either this week, but for no other reason than too fucking lazy to put them on and saved myself cash on both Tuesday (Scunthorpe) and Wednesday (Man City) too.

We only had a small party for Amelia with grandparents and a close friend, so we went to my bro’s down in High Wycombe on Sunday afternoon and had a bite to eat there. I probably see more of him since he moved 70 miles away than I did when he was up here. What I found unbelievable was the traffic when we were travelling home. 9.30pm on a Sunday night and if it wasn’t dark you could have thought it was midweek rush hour. Goodness only knows what all these cunts are doing as they can’t all be commuting ready for the week ahead (although southbound did look significantly heavier). It seems gone are the days when you could head out on a Sunday and have the roads pretty much to yourself.

Pretty much chilled out for the rest of the time at Hatton Country World on Monday (fuck all was open and I’d have been complaining if I had paid, but borrowed a mates pass) and then shopping for Amelia on Tuesday. Well I say Amelia, we started out over at Morrisons where it was 24 Carling for an Ayrton and obviously too good to miss, but ended up spending a fortune more on things we didn’t need.

Twelve months ago today I requested a strict restriction on borrowing/overdraft be placed on my account as I can’t be trusted and that’s up as they could only do for one year at a time. So tempting to take the cash again as I built up a £3k overdraft in record time – far too easy to apply and have an instant decision with on-line banking. Money instantly available and a debit card in hand to gamble with so fucking dangerous with my track record. Providing they see plenty of income flowing into the account the banks don’t give a flying, so I need to contact them again. I’ve also recently applied for a new credit card and will therefore be able to post on the forum some time soon. I’m undecided on a new username yet, but possibly something like ‘See You Next Tuesday (C.U.N.T.).

Good luck
Rob

Further ramblings

I’ve had a couple more emails from Betfarce that I won’t print up as it’s just more of the same and explaining why they are correct and why they are giving me fuck all. All they had to do to appease someone who is more likely to use their site in the future than they now would is send me an email, saying something like “We’re really sorry for your inconvenience and as a gesture of our goodwill, we will offer you a free entry to the $18k”. I realise they don’t have to do this, but clearly I would tell other people and who knows, they may think what a great piece of customer relations and play there too. I’m sure if anyone reading this that has already deserted the sinking ship, then it won’t encourage them to return any time soon. The point is that it would cost them fuck all, since the tournament often doesn’t meet its guarantee and they now have yet another disillusioned customer – they really don’t get it at all.

Another set of cunts to add to my ever growing list (I really should collate a list as there now so many of them) are a company called First Plus. We took a seven year loan out with them about two years ago, secured against the house. I can’t remember if this was the conservatory one, the car etc or just another one of my fuck ups. Anyhow, the cheeky cunts sent me a letter yesterday informing me that the variable interest rate on the loan is increasing by 1% to help make them more efficient! Despite interest rates being so low they advise that their rates are not linked to the Bank of England … a stance that I’m sure they’ll acknowledge when the rates eventually increase. Sounds like fucking theft in my book and the cunts should be made to collect wearing a mask, a stripy shirt and carrying a bag marked ‘swag’.

I successfully predicted all eight Champions league game results on Wednesday night, but threw in a Newcastle win and a Reading/Cardiff draw too. The £3 acca would have been worth £4,500 or as it now stands fuck all! I was watching the Liverpool game, who I had included in my main bet, but unfortunately had Newcastle in there too, so another loser. Perhaps I can get a return this weekend and I’m in such sparkling form :-( Selections this week are:

Aston Villa
Newcastle
Leeds
Notts Co (surely not what a surprise :-) )
Rangers

15/2 online with Blue Sq, not sure what price the high street are yet, but based on recent shite shop prices, probably no better than 5/1

Good luck
Rob

Betfarce

I've been emailing the useless cunts at Betfair Poker regarding the WPT freeroll farce from Monday night and had the usual woeful response from the most unhelpful useless bunch of cunts on the planet (apart from BT and Tesco of course):

WPT freeroll problems 14-09-09

I entered a password protected WPT freeroll on Monday evening and this should have been for UK and Ireland players only. At one stage all of the overseas players were kicked out pre tournament but many managed to re-enter the 1000 strong field. It wasn’t the usual freeloader rubbish with a 15 minute clock and 2,500 starting stack so I gave my full evening up in order to play it properly.

With 13 players left and 2.5m chips in play I had over 500,000 chips but managed to lose them to foreign players who should not have been playing which is of course frustrating and finished 10th. There were nine prizes although of course I was only playing for first, but as one of the five remaining uk & ire players at the very least I would expect one of the 2-5 level prizes of an entry to the $18k and hopefully something to compensate my troubles.

Why is it that other sites don’t get these problems? It can’t have been that difficult to remove players before the tournament started and avoid this kind of thing. It was my first foray onto the software for a while after previous problems with connection issues and I am of course naturally disappointed that things don’t seem to have improved.

To date I have received no email from anyone at Betfair either confirming a prize given or even an apology for the farce that we were subjected too. I didn’t wait to watch the final table and only hope that one of the remaining few eligible players actually took down the prize.

I would be grateful if you could look into this as a matter of urgency please.

Best regards

Robert

Dear Robert,
Thank you for your e-mail.
Further to your below query, please note that this matter has been already escalated and being looked into by the relevant department in charge of these matters. Once we receive their feedback we will contact you back with the resolution to this matter. Thank you for your patience.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further enquiries.


Dear Robert,

Further to your query regarding the WPT freeroll, please note that after this matter has been investigated it came to light that there was a printing mistake in the magazine and not the set up of the freeroll itself. Therefore a decision was reached to leave the rankings as they are and process winnings accordingly.
Thank you for understanding.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further enquiries.

That is complete and utter rubbish.

The WPT in that format is not even printed across the rest of Europe and hence the reason that there were players removed at one stage. Once again you are tailoring the rules to meet your own error because it’s too complicated to rectify and once again you have not even had the courtesy for an apology nor made even a goodwill gesture.

This is quite pathetic for a company which leads in so many other ways. The password was distributed via European forums and the winner’s package included such a small amount for expenses that it couldn’t possibly have been meant to include overseas players. In addition an observer at the table (who we were not sure was legit or not) said that we had all won from about 40 players out as there were only 9 uk remaining. Another had the ear of the editor and was Pm’ing him. Even if your statement was true, then the very least you could have done was made players aware at the table of the error (tables incidentally which were full of foreign speech in the chat box which also contravenes your rules).

I know you will care little about this and I can’t say I’m surprised at your stance, but to say I’m disappointed would be a huge understatement.

Robert


I await their response, but I won't hold my breath!
