dickyhale Posted 11 August, 2009 Posted 11 August, 2009 Who else had Lambert tonight at 4-1 to score first. Ladbroke said they lost up there tonight. I had £25.00 to score first at 4-1. So won a £100.00 got a enough for a new DRUM now.

EBS1980 Posted 11 August, 2009 Posted 11 August, 2009 I wanted to bet Lambert first and saints to win with Bet365 but they wouldn't take my bet as they said the lambert scoring part would reduce the odds on the saints win, and wouldn't allow me to place the bet grrr
SET Posted 11 August, 2009 Posted 11 August, 2009 Yup I won on that, could not believe the odds, thought they'd have been closer to 5/4.
saints_is_the_south Posted 11 August, 2009 Posted 11 August, 2009 Not much of a gambler so i just just a measley pound on Lambert to score first, still my winnings paid for an extra beer so happy days!
LA77 Posted 11 August, 2009 Posted 11 August, 2009 Yup I won on that, could not believe the odds, thought they'd have been closer to 5/4. 5/4 for a first goalscorer? that would be terrible odds. I think we can all earn some money on RL banging in a few first up this season.
southamptonfclegend Posted 11 August, 2009 Posted 11 August, 2009 i was going to put it on but then thought 4/1 was **** odds and in recent times i can't remember that many Saints players scoring on Deubts...
Jez Posted 11 August, 2009 Posted 11 August, 2009 yes, were going to be chapel banging the drum. WAKE that end UP Still planning on shaking up St Marys with a drum that no one wants eh?
SaintNeil90 Posted 11 August, 2009 Posted 11 August, 2009 I work for Ladbrokes. Nightmare for us! Ran out of money to pay people out. On a personal level Im chuffed the new boy scored!
St.Patrik Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 I had : ) Also had Saints win and 2-0 so a nice £50 profit yesterday !
SET Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 5/4 for a first goalscorer? that would be terrible odds. I think we can all earn some money on RL banging in a few first up this season. Last seasons league top scorer looking to impress on his debut against hugely inferior opposition. 4/1 was far too rich and I think that's shown by ladbrokes tills running dry. On another point I thought bookies we leagally bound to having liquid assets to cover liabilities at event outlets. Whatever whoever made the 4/1 decision will be having their balls chewed this morning.
KK the 2nd Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 No, they are not bound to carry enough cash to cover every eventuality. That would be a real security risk. They carry enough cash to pay out uncollected bets plus a reasonable float to cover a loss but not a huge loss. They of course will offer other options if they run out of cash on the night such as payment by cheque, pick up your winnings at any Ladbrokes shop or simply pick up at the next game.

Gingeletiss Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 (edited) yes, were going to be chapel banging the drum. WAKE that end UP You won't be dickyboy!!............as musical instruments are banned as far as I'm aware.

scott_saints Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 4-1 isn't "good odds" for a first goalscorer. It's pretty much the lowest you can get. Ronaldo was always 4-1 at United. That said, it was clearly worth it!

dickyhale Posted 12 August, 2009 Author Posted 12 August, 2009 That would be quite funny, but I thought you sit in the Northam. We do. . Its a joke what me and my uncle liked. We sat there laughing last night when we was booking our huddersfield tickets. Good drum isn't it?
Gingeletiss Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 It's called a joke. Ever heard of one? And I would have a hard job as I dont sit in the chapel Oh sorry................Ha bl**dy Ha!!
St.Patrik Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 For gods sake - thats not the drum to use - a good old snare drum would do the job : ) http://www.umebatucada.se/images/instruments/caixa.jpg
DT Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 I had him at 9/2 with Blue Square. Also had Lambert and 3-0 which would have won oodles. DAMNIT!

Whatever whoever made the 4/1 decision will be having their balls chewed this morning. Don't be so ridiculous ffs. Anyone that would put money on a bloke to score first at 5/4 is a complete c***. I don't think anyone would've been as short as 5/4 to score 1st.
SET Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 not saying i think it should have been 5/4 but 4/1 was certainly too rich, it would not take a genuis to realise at 4/1 majority of people would take a punt on him. And as said, the fact their tills run dry proves they totally miscalculated the risk.
Murdock Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 Just spoke to my Chelsea supporting mate who had £50 on Ricky to score at same odds. Happy man today, owes me drink though as he wouldn't bother with saints otherwise...
LA77 Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 over the course of the season the bookies will get that back don't worry. Just because he scored 1st at 4-1 is no big deal. Beattie is 9-2 to score first saturday against Burnley. It's rare a goalscorer is under 3-1 to score first anyway. The odds are not that great anyway. He could score 3 or 4 after someone else scores first and you'd win nothing. I do think he's a great bloke to win some money on though. Beattie had a run of games a few years back that people cashed in on. He was never less than 7-2 if i can remember correctly!
Pokerchampion Posted 13 August, 2009 Posted 13 August, 2009 Check out Sky Bet for Saturday , i had Lambert at 5/4 to score at any time during the game , he should be a bigger price v better opposition , also saints are a best price 5/2 with blue sq v Huddersfield , seems a big price considering the team are starting to gell .

Had Ruud van Nistelrooy at Utd a few time and he was 5/2 and when he went on that scoring run he was top priced at 3-1 aginst top Prem teams. 4-1 was very overpriced.
