    a very pathetic 56 irish pounds.

    had a tip on a horse called 'fleet petite', trained by Austin O'Grady, running in Tralee and I put 7 pounds on it at eight to one (it was all I could afford aged thirteen).

    I've lost loads though!!

    What games were they ??
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    A miserable €70 on the grand national just gone. And my horse finished 4th at that (last years winner). I've had loads of winners but never big stakes.

    Won about £150 quid last year in Ladbrokes from a treble at Cheltenham with Moscow Flyer,Best Mate and Baracouda.I don't bet massive amounts so that was about my biggest amount. Also a horse called Leporello was very kind to me last season, was third yesterday on his first run this season in ground that didn't suit. A class act, mark your card because he's destined for some good things.

    I made €698 on the english pools about 2 years ago. I only had €2 down. Think I had 9 away wins.
    The glass isn't half full or half empty it's just too damn big!
