It could have been me. I was going to enter yesterday but I was at work and asked my Mum to buy me a ticket but she forgot and by the time I got back it was too late to enter.
I entered (again) but not even 1 number. I see Chanrai, having shafted all the players, has now turned his attention to Trevor Birch and the admin charges - and he couldn't understand why we were so suspicious of Chanrai, guess he now knows!
Same, I was there around 1 until 7 yesterday. Fantastic place to visit- I've been to three Olympic venues, The Olympic Park, Wembley Stadium, and Hyde Park. Hyde Park is by far the best place- and water's only £1.20, compared to £3.50 inside one of the Olympic Park stadiums (The Copper Box, Handball)
I disagree. I would say it was BIRCH that has shafted the players, and is now seemingly unwilling to do the same as them and reach a compramise with Portpin. Why should they take their full £1.8 mil when players like Halford and Lawrence have walked away from substancial amounts of cash!? I think Chainrai is fully entitled to tell Birch to "take a hit" (as Birch said everyone would have to do...)
I got 2 numbers and 2 lucky stars, plus there were two additional numbers that came up that I'd crossed out (gutting!). Even with 4 of 5 numbers and both lucky stars, I think I'd have been able to pay 20% of Ben Haim's wages for one week Shows how much ****e you're in!
I went there last week, but I didn't really like it. Problem was, after wolfing down all my food outside the entrance (except what I smuggled in), I could buy food from anywhere inside - as long as it was Cadbury's, Heineken, or whoever owned the 50 generic burger vans. Then there were the huge things where I could go if I wanted to be sold something from BT or Samsung or the Sun, and the big screens with the BBC on - but with adverts! Maybe I was just in a miserable mood that day .
