    Hopefully not derailing this and hopefully not breaking any forum rules but I’d usually blow a few quid on a Saturday on a football bet.

    Anyone fancy a head to head with me with the loser donating €20 to charity of their choice? A bit of extra excitement in these boring times and helping a good cause - win/win.

    No need to do the AH Purge thing of proving donation as I trust a gentleman’s (or lady’s) agreement should be enough for any volunteers and I wouldn’t know how to anyway :)

    I’m not made of money so just one person please :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,514 ✭✭✭aaronjennings


    Go on, I'll take that bet :)

    Since we're both likely to be knocked out, you want to judge the winner on who stays in the game the longest, or ignore the whole elimination thing and just have a straight up head-to-head game of Sheep, highest-points win?


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,336 ✭✭✭✭Collie D

    Good man :)

    Whoever stays on longest I suppose to keep with the overall theme. If we both go out in same round how about both paying €20?

    I thought I’d miss this.

    I’ll join in on that charity bet. I’ve just lost on our zoom family bingo so I’ll see if I’m lucky this time.

    Just realised it’s a head to head. If someone else wants to pair up with me or I’ll leave it till another game

    If no other takers before kick off I’ll risk another €20 against you.
