I personally can’t wait till April when the fobts are sent to exile and I can enjoy going in the bookies again and not having to fight myself not to play them. For me they seem to take my concentration away from studying the horses and dogs etc and I end up random betting.

I agree, never felt the compulsion to stick 500 on a horse or a dog. I walked in, put my darts bet on, walked towards the exit and it was if a big fucking magnet pulled me towards it. Tried a score in the original roulette (the one with the blonde bird who tells u what number it’s landed on) doubled my money and then that imaginary switch in my brain flipped over giving me no sense of reason or reality lol, 2 trips to the cashline and it’s ended in tears. That’s me back to beating the wife home from work before the bank statement hits the mat. Think we will hold an online party on the forum come April ✌✌✌

I feel you mate that big FOBT ? makes you feel like shit when you let yourself be succumbed by it (unless you win?)

i have sat in front of them feeding a grand into them on more occasions that I want to think about no probs but I would never dream about putting that amount on a horse or football bet it’s mad when you think about it.

Its not the fobts fault it mine, I just don’t have the level of self control installed within ones self to allow me to do the hardest thing when playing them PRESS THE BIG RED COLLECT BUTTON when your up ?

Agree with you there lad, at least young lads sticking on there first coupon won’t have these fuckers to succumb to, I reckon half the bookies in the country will vanish after April, there’s no one in them at the best of times. Dont get me wrong I will take no pleasure in watching folk lose their jobs but I will feel there is one less evil out there to tempt me.

No better sound to hear than the bookies crying about shops shutting and staff losing jobs, I’ve stood in bookies for more hours than I’ve Been with the wife but to this day I’ve never seen a member of staff try and help a problem punter playing the machines but I’ve seen plenty of them laughing about them.
