Last season i told my dad to place £30 on Orient to win the league at 66-1. Obviously i'm not old enough to make a bet yet so I told him we should both put £15 in.
I was on the plane about to leave Gatwick when we were told the flight was delayed. So i turned my phone on and text my dad to double check he placed the bet in time (the season was going to start in a few hours). I didn't get a reply in time because our plane took off so I assumed he would text back when we landed. Still no reply so when I got back from holiday and Orient were top of the league, I rang him only to find he didn't place the bet because he thought we hadn't a chance in hell.
I told him I would never forgive him if Orient won the league and until January, he must have been praying Orient would somehow throw away their form. Luckily for him, they did.
But i always bet with my stepdad because he is a big MK Dons fan. last season I won £20 off him because Orient stayd up & I'll get £20 if Orient finish higher than the Dons this season.
