thanks for your reply, alfie Smile

i certainly will be a lot wiser if i can get some monies from this Embarassed
it would be hard not too
i have not mentioned any of this to my father as that would be my last resort.there is a possibility of that working but i would have to wait /hope everton come up on sunday before i could entertain that thought, and then there is a possibility that darlington could let me down tomorrow and everything is out the window. Fingers Crossed its all ifs and buts at the moment.
i hope paddy powers ring me back today [ not like last year with Boylesports]
there is only one winner out of all this and thats my `caroline` as she has been promised half again this year Smile Laughing
i am still trying to find where she hid last years loot Cheeky
cheers alfie Win

Hard to see Everton losing on Sunday so that leaves Darlington in the play offs, wouldn't be confident about them so hope you get a chance to trade out Win

Its not particularly generous but the safest alternative involves getting many k shipped into your Betfair account before tomorrow's Darlington game starts. I'd take it if I was in your situation. But this time give it all to the wife so you don't give it back to the bookies.

Be Lucky Smile whatever you decide Fingers Crossed

hi alfie
i agree with you about it not been that generous but in my estimation i would need about 85,000 to guarantee myself around 22,000


25,000=rochdale 4/5 rochdale win =20,000 profit

if darlington won,

60,000=stockport/wycombe4/5 stockport/wycombe win=48,000
[- rochdale monies 25,000
23,000 profit

darlington win= 107,388 - stockport/rochdale monies=22,388 profit

but if everton were to slip up it would be jump in rivertime Rolleyes (Sarcasm)

if i was still living in england it would be easier for me to do this as my parents live in england and i would have to explain this face to face with my father for him to understand[ non gambler] compared to doing it over a phone.
i am going to ring back and except the offer and thanks for your reply alfie Thanks

cheers gecko Win
thanks for your reply. i have accepted their offer.they rang during my previous post.they had to read out all the selections and prices that were on the bet and i had to say that it was all correct and that i would except their offer so they would have it all recorded on phoneline in case of a dispute.
i can collect the cheque now as it is been given the all clear in my local Paddy Power shop to do so. Wink

now i can sit back and shout/roar for rochdale/aston villa/newcastle Win

cheers for your replies Thanks

hi kilkennycat
all done and dusted.i have collected my cheque and i have got a duplicate of my betslip for keeps [ in case darlington win,i can hand it in to a different Paddy Power shop ] Laughing Laughing i was not expecting it to be sorted out so quickly but now i am relieved that i got something back and as gecko said definite money is better than potential money.
i will still be sick if darlington win. Fingers Crossed
cheers Thanks

Well done Swash, it seemed the sensible option in your circumstances. Now take the missus away for 2 weeks and DO NOT check the football results Laughing
