    You bet on notts to lose to win cash...
    Which was the worthier cause?
    You slag him off but you bet on them to lose.
    Worthy cause? Depends whether you wanted NA sacked mid season or not I guess. What's that got to do with it?

    The big difference is Biker wanted Notts to lose and was bizarrely disappointed that lots of Notts fans were celebrating a winner deep into stoppage time. Whereas if I bet on Notts to draw or lose I still want them to win.

    You may have come back refreshed and posting lots on here but you still haven't learnt to answer questions, standard

    I won't bother asking either question again because you, me and everyone already knows the answers already.

    Betting or predicting a win for the opposition which is incredibly common on NCM prediction threads doesn't naturally mean you want them to lose. All it means is that person thinks Notts will lose, that's all.

    I will let you get back to arguing about the MR resignation and the whole racism debate linked to it. It's a little like Dr Pedro MK II

    I don't thinking betting is healthy - the whole online stuff is an absolute disaster with the debt situation simmering. Having said that, I fully understand why you might bet on Notts to lose. I can't see it any different to forecasting on here that Notts are going to lose - if you think that, what's the problem with betting that they will?

    There's a difference between hoping they will lose and betting that they will. But, the problem comes if you have bet Notts will lose, they are losing then Notts get a last minute penalty .... there must be a conflict of interests.

    If you can afford to lose the money, I suppose you see it as a win-win. If they win you're happy, if they lose, at least you are a bit better off and you can put it towards drowning your sorrows!

    Absolutely no conflict of interest at all, not even a tiny bit.

    Every bone in my body would be willing Notts to score.

    Any big games I always bet a decent amount on the Red Dogs to also soften the blow. Thankfully as we all know I've lost almost every time

    Online gambling can indeed be a dangerous world, the key is always to bet what won't upset you if you lose. Sadly many can't keep to this simple rule. I once lost a considerable amount (for a backpacker) at a the Star Casino in Sydney just over 20 years ago it upset me. From that day on I've never lost a bet I'm not fine with.

    Overall I'm well down on football bets no question (it's just a bit of fun) thankfully overall I'm comfortably in profit thank to horse racing. I've not deposited into any of my betting accounts in years because of a fantastic rating system that consistent works.

    Apparently it's a fact as was verified by a very interesting post earlier and his first post.
    Do you know anyone else nationality or individual who is famed about lying about their age? Who else could he have used to support his claim?
    Anyway it was used to support his accusation that enzio was playing like an older man and not a man of his supposed age.
    A very poor critique a very poor analogy very poor judgement.
    The rascist aspect has come into it because everyone is saying its rascist hence the debate.
    All I'll judged maybe rascist but not a full frontal KKK assault and maybe a case where a warning could have surficed in my opinion of course.
    You are certainly correct in saying he could have easily used a better way of expressing how poorly he felt enzio was playing.
    If ross hadn't resigned what course of action fo you think the club should have took sacking or warning.
    It was clumsy and messy, it's not the kind of language I think anyone in a position of authority at the club should be using especially in 2021. I think we should have sacked him if not as his position would be untenable as it sends the wrong message to our black employees and supporters. People should know better by now and if you use that kind of language at work then be prepared to lose your job. It's ok being an angry scotsman but maybe stop being casually racist. I've got work to do, have a good day.

    Yes, but from what you have said previously you only bet what you know you won't miss. The conflict comes for those who couldn't afford to bet in the first place and really need the win.

    So what about the abuse given to our five toe’d friends down the road.
    Surely they have a case?

    You may have missed my previously mentioning that I don't even know Laddo, never mind love him.

    Welcome back anyway Pedro.
