Hi guys, I've just spunked £47k on Brighton to finish in the top 6. Was just wondering, are they any good, or have I just ruined my fucking life? Cheers.

The Brighton fans seem to think I've made a good bet.

The odd "high roller" jibe aside it's probably as good an opening gambit as any with which to ingratiate yourself into a new online community.

Anyone else actually taking this as a compliment? Lets be honest, Reading were a premier league club last season and you would expect them to be up there this season. So for a fan of them to be that confident of us making the top 6 sounds like a pretty decent compliment. Top man Reading Dave!

Well done Peps. It's nice to see you making some friends after all these years of solitude.

Royalee ...with Le Fondre banging goals in for fun


He's doing OK, but I think we must have different opinions of what 'banging goals in for fun' means.

They're going to be shattered when they find out that it was all part of a joke, even though in the time before they realise, I would have grown to love them for real.

When they make a film of this, and they will, I'd like to be played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

They'll turn on me once I'm comfortable enough to start being myself.

TSB I'm assuming that those odds were pre-season, rather than in the last few days
.

"Reading Dave" Are you calling me a liar?

My Grandmother has just died, so I've got a bit of inheritance, hence why the bet was slightly larger than it might have been usually.
