When I gave up work to look after my little girl I organised a competition between me and my mates preditcting who would win sporting events through a calendar year (had a lot of time on my hands). Part of this comp was betting on 1 horse race a week using the points accrued in other predictions.
Anyway….... I am proposing this.
A Ramble Betting comp - Rules as follows;
0 - Everyone starts with a virtual £1,000
0 - You must post your bet PRIOR to the event (no in-play, it will get far too complicated)
0 - You must show the odds for your bet and where you got them from (link if you can)
0 - You must post the result and your ‘account staus’ after it has happened.
For example;
Arsenal to beat Leeds 3-0 £10 @ 8-1 at Ladbrooks
If Arse did win 3-0
I get £80 + stake so my account stands at £1,080
I hope this is clear enough (and simple enough), the forummer with the best virtual account at the end of the year (Olympics, Euro’s + much much more) wins a Ramble T-Shirt (if anyone from the Ramble reads this and agrees to it - if not then SFA).
We have loads of people with interests in loads of sports on here, so it could be fun (you could even win real money if you think a bet is good and do it in ‘real life’). We should be able to police it amongst ourselves and call out any mistakes or ‘mistermeaners’
If you want in - do it. If not don’t and watch this thread drift out to page 77 of 178!
