Hey mods.....

[captain blood 17]

Should bets made to Essendon supporters (for this season) be null and void now, due to the punishment of the EFC. Or should they be honored?
Whats your call?

 

[Haduken]

Welching CB? Poor form son.

 

[T2B_]

Can categorically say CB would never go out of his way to welch, so the question is legitimate.

Personally I reckon they (bets) should be void, since you know, Essendon*.

I'm surprised he's even asking. I wouldn't have picked him as one.

 

[captain blood 17]

I carried the sig right up to last Friday, but, I am so disgusted disgusted by Essendon and their actions that I scrubbed the sig. It was to do to the 15th of September.
The EFC is a s**tstain on the game. So I'm not hiding from what I have done, I'm putting it out there, so I honor it, or should I say EAD, the EFC are cheats, and the bet is null and void.

Just take it like a man, don't be a Hirdy.

It's complicated and sensitive.

 

[Praetorian]

sportsbet have paid out on all bets involving essendon, I'd say you're free to go

 

[KardiniaPark]

Case by case I'd say, what was the bet?

 

[Haduken]

I have a bet with mufassa about Essendon finishing higher than Norf. Its for a six month ban from the Bay starting from the Grand Final.

I've kind of already won it since he's gone completely into hiding since it became apparent we were going to finish much higher. It's now possible that Norf could make the eight though, so if it happens, I intend to honour it, even if he never shows his face around here again.

Bet Welching is about your honour, not a football clubs

I'd say Ant_ should start warming up the welching badge for the OP...

Nah I think that's unfair. Should be called off IMO.

Bet was that Longdaveyjetta would own my sig till 15th of Sept if Tigers lost to Essendon in the dreamtime game, which I honoured until last Friday, when I became super pissed off at the EFC's poor attitude about what was leveled at them, and how unrepentant their supporters were and still are.

Just wear it, it's only a couple more weeks. Their team has to wear the asterisk FOREVER.

 

[Wosh]

Agree, dont go down to their level keep your honour intact and wear the sig, but hey put an asterisk after it

Suck it up and honour it. They weren't on the gear this year. It has nothing to do with that game.

 

[Breva_]

Wear the sig 2 weeks tops* & then it's over.

 

[Amstaff_]

OP clearly welching.

For shame.

 

[captain blood 17]

That's why I have put it up for discussion, if the consensus is to wear it, it goes back on.

 

[zackah]

I will delete my account if any one one of these things happen:

Jobe keeps his brownlow.
Jobe isn't suspended for at least six months
Hird coaches Essendon in 2013

I'll just keep quoting this one in every bet related thread until the flog disappears

 

[Spirit Level]

Wear the sig with an *

So you have your excuse for hiding away sobbing for the next six months already arranged. Nice

A welch is a welch is a welch.
Time for you to get a badge

 

[Haduken]

Well it requires Norf to beat the Pies and Carlton and Brisbane to lose. But in essence... yes

It would be a shame though, I like watching the "of the year" posts play out.

 

[Piston]

Bringing the Bay into disrepute.

You haven't been proven to have welched yet you should admit guilt around poor bet governance. You'll get labelled a welcher anyway and banzhammered for 12 months.

Your lack of repentance disgusts disgusts me.

However when we see you in 2014 you'll be fired up, unstoppable, and a lock for the Toots.
