England rugby and stupid football bets

Yesterdays football bets lost. Belgium and Germany both drew 0-0, After I put that on, I did wonder why. Our staking plan went out of the window, £100 on a 4/1 shot. We usually only bet on stuff we know about, Belgium and Finland football??? Not a clue about that. So £100 down.

England rugby went a lot better. Somehow they managed to win. +9 was printing money. Can’t really remember much of the game. Was out since 3pm watching England football and things got a little hazy. So £91 profit from that.

Net loss for the weekend, £9. Bank now at +£123.

Was looking on Betfair, can see a few people sweating over England. Looks like some fool risked £3K to win £12. England at 279/1 to win the world cup, crazy prices. I wouldn’t be too happy if I’d have matched that at 110.0 either. £400 000 potentially loss. Thats got to be a few different people though, if not, I can see a headline in the paper, “Pro Gambler, hangs himself after £400K loss on England winning the rugby world cup”.
