Even worse, did anyone do the Aussie pools?

Aye when the proper footy season ended these were out.
My dad always said we'd get an executive box at Roker if we won the pools.

and the Aussie fixtures through the summer were always something to behold

Even worse, did anyone do the Aussie pools?

My grandad did. Did they even have a pro footy league?

 

[Fred Army]

I remember my grandma used to do them. Didn't know they were still going to be honest

or spot the ball for that matter

Was a religion in our house.

don't think my dad had a plan and looked at the fixtures...

Saturday afternoon watching the diddy printer.

not a peep out when the scores read out or hell to pay

Don't do them any more but wouldn't mind doing it occasionally for nostalgia sake.

I got 23 points once 7 score draws and a no-score draw but ended up with just £15.95 as there were loads of score draws that week.

I do the betfair one, but that's a bit different. Pick 6 correct scores, and you get one free go a week. It's basically the same as the Sky Super 6.
