    It's not what I said that matters..yes I think he meant it as to not cover over the cracks of our poor manager but thats not the issue.
    It's what laddo said..
    He slagged him off for wanting notts to lose he bets on notts to lose.
    Hence hes a hypocrite..

    I don't question his character and certainly not on this matter. I'm not alone.

    Why did Biker only "apparently" want them to lose now, have you refreshed your memory of his post where he questioned why other Notts fans were celebrating that dramatic 3-2 win. There is very little doubt what he wanted.

    Betting on a team to lose and wanting to lose are completely different things come on Ken you know that surely?

    Put it this way when you (as you have done many times) or anyone else predicts Notts to lose on the prediciton thread does that mean they want Notts to lose?

    Whereas Biker on more than one occasion didn't want Notts to win a game he wanted them to lose because he hoped that NA would depart as a result.

    NA has departed as has Biker. All good

    So he wanted notts to lose to get rid of Ardley
    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.

    And yet again, you bring up Enzio.

    It absolutely beggars belief that you still try to defend the indefensible. Why do you think IR resigned?
    I think you will find I said we have no context to go on.
    I happen to think its ***** and QP has raised this on a few occasions but we are not privy to the context.
    We have no idea of the subplots that lead up to the event and we dont know how it was handled since.
    We only know what was said and that is what I have used for my conclusion.
    There are many factors that could have a bearing on the issue but we can only make a judgment call on what we've been told.
    So context is indeed *****..

    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.

    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.

    I used to bet on F****t winning so it softened the blow but I was always happy to lose the bet!!
