Please Note this is a bit of fun betting can seriously damage your wealth when done with real money

Thanks to Ron mod for these rules which have been slightly adapted.

Just a quick example if you did a Canadian £1 stake on the top 5 clubs winning at home and they did, the stake would be £26 return on the bet would be £298.67 including your stake so your balance would rise from £100 to £372.67.
 
Starts properly next week to give everyone a chance to sign up as we decided quite late to do the game. This week is to give people a chance to try out bets without risking anything I thought a few would have tried Canadians or Lucky 31's etc to see how they worked.
 
I just thought of another tweak to add to the Game every week there will be a bonus game chosen at random from the other leagues which will give double odds on Single bets ie suppose one week Chelsea vs Man Utd is the bonus game if you staked £10 on the draw at 3-1 if it was a draw would be settled at 6-1.

Have added the bonus game for a bit of fun this week Exeter City in a local derby with Bristol Rovers.
