I’M not a huge fan of challenges as people know and you can see why I started my latest attempt with a loser.
There were a dozen or so bets I looked but I ended up going for a Man City/Norwich double.
Norwich of course did the business but City missed two penalties as they were held 1-1 at home to Everton.
Someone commented my challenges were a bit “Danny Dyer” and I answered “just like Aguero’s penalties”.
Looking back since the start of August I’ve completed two challenges to win £500 and lost on the final bet twice. I’ve lost another 20 so I’m still in profit doing something I feel people want to see even if it’s not a feature I focus on.
Anyway I’m rising to the challenge and taking a massive risk today. I’ve put my £20 on a moneyback fivefold at Ladbrokes – five hot favourites, one loses and I’ll go again using the free bet.
This won’t be for everyone and isn’t the advisable way to start a challenge but let’s see what happens.
Look out for others having a go – and if you have a challenge this is the place to put it.

Your betting challenges are Danny Dyer to say the least 😂 Better luck today eh…
Just like Aguero’s penalties. He’s missed at least 4 this season so why i she is still taking them.
When I played I had a good shot on me – “Hotshot Jainio” they called me. But after I missed a pen I never got taking another.
So come on Pep find someone else who can score one on one from 12 yards.

Crane, you got a fan club going or what?
Must be open night at The Institute for the Hard of Thinking.
Wrong thread Craneguy, what you’re doing isn’t challenge betting. And I would try seeing if you’re figures are correct but you’ve got it wrong that many times I don’t know whether where you are is anywhere near right anymore.

hi crane, is your fan club the same person with a few new accounts?
mr f has had dialogue with a couple of them too.
there are many similarities. just a thought
Tip-top of course it is…what they/he obviously doesn’t realise is that they use a bank of words/phrases that are consistently mispelt/used that make it pretty clear to those who have been on the site for a while…embarassing really but let them have their little bit of fun if that is what gets them through their lonely days.
crane does need an abacus tho lol
At the end of the day, this is a TIPPING site not some friendship or chat site – Craneguy will admit he has brought on some of it himself but what he does do is put up both losing and the odd winning tip transparently without ramming it down people’s throats.
agreed 100%, no BS just as it is & thats as it should be. banter is great but this petty trolling from ‘the fanclub’ is now boring.
I know what’s going on here – pretty sad really.
As HullShaker says it’s obvious too.

Harry’s gone – his choice by the way. I didn’t chase him.
He’s trying to make money from his tips so good luck to him.
Let’s stop talking about him unless he decides to come back.
Hear, hear…I for one wish him the best of luck.
For some folk I think it’s important to find and use the right media platform to do what you want to do, for some it’s a forum, others Facebook and for others (like Harry), Twitter is absolutely the right social media vehicle to ‘spread your word’ to the world.
We’re a long time dead…
Totally agree.
£10 to £100 challenge
£10 on Watford over 1.5goals
12/5
I know it’s risky with Borough’s good home defence but I fancy a shootout here. 2-2 or 2-1 to either team. I think Watford might just edge this one.
