Beat The Bookie

The bookie always wins, right? Well we're about to find out.

Every week, the bookmaker, Mr Justin Euro, will give four of Banter's finest the chance to place £10 on

any bet(s) of their choice, based on the odds he sets.

The bookie says:

"Now what qualifies me to do such a thing, do I hear you ask? Well 3 years experience as a Managers Assistant

for Corals whilst at University for a start, as well as my all round footballing knowledge and my current position

as a professional football trader for Sportingbet plc, a multinational online betting firm.

Each week I will provide you with some of the hottest betting markets for Banter Central FC’s upcoming

fixture, and it will be upto your goodselves to pit your wits against me and try and earn yourself some cash.

You will have £10 per week to play with, and a leader board of the scores will be kept.

Remember, Euro is always right, the bookie always wins and Euro definitely always wins."
