I told Cos a story today and I will reproduce it here, as some of you are getting distracted by pointless detail.  First of all, understand that even if you had the right game, he couldn't post +20k because then it would be clear to many that to make that much % there was IR risk and not a pre-kick off arb.

OK, back to the story:

A young man goes to a casino every day with 10k.  He nicks 200 each day martingaleing and has a nice life.  One day, ofc he knocks the whole lot in.  It than unfolds that the 10k was his bosses and he was doing the bank run.  So the young man tells the police he was mugged.

If you replaced "mugged" with "slept in" then the penny may drop.

The 10k is actually our 80k, the 200 a day was a bit more than that, enough for a few spins and some GUKPTs.  It all went tits up and there wasn't a "mugged" option - so "slept in" it was.

First point is obv for a start.

Nice story, basically you've just taken Blatch's situation and turned it into your own, what was the point of the post?

I am interested to know, is all the trading done pre kick off? If something went wrong would it be possible that a large chunk of the investment could be lost?

Great stuff so far. Congrats!


Yes it could go horribly wrong but we should only lose a fraction more than what we normally make on any one game.


sounds amazing, are you sure this isnt ponzi?


I would love to say it is but sadly ... its not





Not quite soviet, nearly though

What is the financial position of his parents, maybe they would weigh some % of the money lost in if they were aware of the situation. Obv it's a long shot but anything that enables a possible reimbursement of funds has to be worth a shot.

Cos I've done plenty of shit in my lifetime to piss my parents off and although they steam, in the end things will be alright I'm sure. The guy is a very very good conman and had everyone fooled

I've just managed to speak to Neil to tell him to get on the thread and answer questions.

I quote, "I'll try later as I've come to tell my parents. They are gonna help me get on my feet and are going to help to make sure everyone gets paid back'.

I also asked if there were any funds elsewhere and he's insitant that he's done the lot, including personal ISAs and his account is in overdraft.

Obviously all this still needs checking.

In the meantime I've just given Rookie the account log in and password and he's going to help look into what happened.

As suggested earlier can we get the full list of transactions sent out again as it looks like the one he sent out the first time has been doctored.

Cheers to all who are helping.

Its already been requested

Requested spreadsheet from betfair so it will come direct this time, also asked for deposit history etc as there is only one transaction on the account which was a bank transfer.

^A deposit of £300 made on the 18th of May. His account in the last 3 months only shows to have lost a total of £300 too, which does make sense that there is no transactions between 19th march until 18th may on the spreadsheet. Meaning he did the last of the initial money on the Cheltenham festival on 16th march

Anyone invest between the 19th March and now? Because that money certainly hasn't gone into the betfair account.

Am I right in thinking that Blatch got you all to send the money to his bank account, meaning he would have to deposit onto the site himself?

Just had a conversation with Tighty, and arbboy and Rookie have been unbanned to help deal with this mess.

Welcome back guys, i hope you's can sort this out or at least find out the truth if nothing else.

Cheers Dave, and I hope you took the little jibe in the right way, apologies if not..

Ok we're unbanning ling and we'll also unban arbboy. Purely because these are extraordinary circumstances. I spoke to tikay this morning and we've also decided to, temporarily at least, unban rooks account as he can help. Also there will be no confusion as to which of ling and rooks is posting. Its up to you guys in what is an awful situation for many to make this work on here please

Speaking with Cos atm, hopefully we can at least find the truth.

Look what I just found

2,1

1, 2

Left is clearly filthy

Look what I just found

180s to be a Tie @ 5/1, £10 on = +£25

lol, no wonder bookies love you.

Dave, seriously start your own thread please? Its like your talking to yourself on here anyway... I would follow you on your on thread alot more..

Lay off Dwayne, he can't help it if it runs in the family.
