So based on what you have just written you will be £50 down . Seen a similar thread last week. Want my opinion .. Anyone backing palace to be relegated regardless of the monetary return needs a smack in the kisser
When I was a young girl my Mother said to me.. You listen here kid you're CPFC |

The bet does no damage to CPFC, does not have any bearing on the games and would be a great consolation in the event of the unthinkable happening. Why be self-righteous about it?

I have started something here I think. But I am prepared to stand my ground with my belief on this. How in God's name can you stand there with everyone around you being a mixture of pissed off , upset, angry, throw in a couple of kids in tears , boos, jeers and all the assortment of emotions some of which you would be feeling yourself no doubt, but in the back of you mind be thinking well its ok because I have just picked up £950. It's just (to me) so wrong. Such a conflict. It's like betting on when a family member is going to snuff it. Sad they've gone, but glad you've cleaned up at the bookies. I just find it weird. I like a bet by the way, never bet against my own team though. Edited by Michaelawt85 (09 May 2017 1.34pm)

I like a bet and saw those odds but in this instance cannot bring myself to bet on us getting relegated.

On the basis I lose every single bet I ever put money on, I think I will be taking that bet. No way will we go down then!

Before the Burnley game, SKYBET had us at 150/1 to go down. I signed up and got £10 free credit. Guess what I put it on? Bite me! I'll be at Hull cheering us on by the way. I want to be able to celebrate at full time with the club not thinking about money I could get if Hull somehow beat Spurs. That's the truth, but I'm trying to play the bookies at their game, not jinx Palace.
I ain't got nuthin' funny to say. Sorry. |

We all desperately and with all our being want Palace to stay in the Loadsadosh. Every genuine fan will be desolated if we go down. But the £850 I will receive if it does happen will in a very, very small way soften the horrible blow and I will be at Hull and Old Trafford games. Incidentally I don't normally bet on family members snuffing it (ludicrous comparison) and anyone wishing to smack me in the kisser would be ill-advised. Even at my advanced age, as a former Merchant Marine boxing team champion, retribution would be swift and painful. :-) (this is meant to be a smiley!)
