Title: Bad bad news for Rooney Post by: TightEnd on April 13, 2006, 10:55:41 PM I saw in the newspapers today, and therefore it must be true, the following
"England's footballers are going to be restricted to a £200 per hand cap in their World cup card school" Shrek owes £700,000 to the Boy Wonder's bookie To pinch a line from elsewhere "How the hell does he get out of it now"? Title: Re: Bad bad news for Rooney Post by: Graham C on April 13, 2006, 10:58:41 PM blimey, he's going to have to work another couple of weeks to pay that off eh :D
I was listening to some chat about this on the radio the other day (5Live) and apparently, debts with bookmakers aren't legally binding - they cannot legally make you pay and it's all on a 'gentlemens agreement'. This is law is currently being reviewed they said. Shall we all set up accounts then? Title: Re: Bad bad news for Rooney Post by: ifm on April 13, 2006, 11:00:28 PM That works both ways, they don't have to honour bets either.
Title: Re: Bad bad news for Rooney Post by: AndrewT on April 13, 2006, 11:00:56 PM You'll generally find that if you owe a bookie £700,000 he's not thinking about legal avenues to recover his debt.
He's just going to send large men round.
