Has anyone seen the post that Sky Bet have up on Facebook regarding the betting for Battleground?

 

The comments underneath range from cringeworthy to straight up embarrassing. You have guys on there spouting the 'it's all fake, this is just asking for match fixing' gubbins, but then you have the wrestling fans that are the reason it's sometimes easier to not admit to being a wrestling fan, commenting with things like 'if it's so fake, tell that to Droz blah blah blah'.

 

It's an amusing read.

To be fair, re the match fixing stuff, da meltz says that's basically exactly what happens. The reasons some odds shorten drastically is because of insider betting knowing what's going to happen. It's been a thing all year

As a kid I thought I was quite clever knowing that Vince McMahon owned the WWF due to having read it in a few magazines during the early 90's. But I was watching a TNT episode from mid 84 now and it's made pretty apparent on WWF TV even then.

 

Vince seemed such a laugh back on TNT.

I was surprised when I heard Celtic Park will host the Glasgow show. As I think I mentioned on the forum last week, the promoter said that due to high demand the shows would be moved to city centre locations. If this is within the promoter's definition of "city centre" christ knows what the original venue was. It's like that Frankie Boyle joke about Ryanair's New York base being somewhere like Dublin.

 

I'm not signed up yet as I might be away this week, but if I attend it's really ideal for me as I can take the car and have a 10/15 minute drive home afterwards.

 

People coming from outside of Glasgow on public transport might have a bit of squeaky bum syndrome worrying about getting to the bus station or train station to get home after the show.
