    A sure fire way of making money

    I've made £450 over the last few weeks by using a very simple betting strategy - spread betting against the English rugby team & English rugby clubs in the Heineken Cup. I'm not a heavy punter. If I were, I could probably retire.

    The logic is simple. Spreads are entirely determined by the market, & this particular market in is dominated by obese, manically optimistic, slow witted, over paid, upper class, morons who come from a certain country that I dare not name lest I be labelled a racist.

    You are in short betting against monkeys.

    If you're interested in an easy way to combine pleasure & profit, try here.

    As a betting plan, it sounds good, but why are the people of Munster (which is not a country yet, btw and I think you were a bit harsh with the upper class bit) betting on England & English teams and how did you find out about it?

    Trefor, when you bet against England you always get value as naturally English people lump on their teams thus inflating the price.

    Considering England have lost seven games in succession, and Argentina's win was a major upset, you would have won a lot of money on this method.

    But this is pure chance.

    The betting market is highly international these days, and is played just as much, (if not more), in the Far East than in the United Kingdom.

    Therefore it's highly unlikely 'Hooray Henries' would be able to seriously distort the market. If they did others would quickly come in and act as you did, thus correcting the price.

    Out of interest, if these Upper Class morons are so dim witted, why do they happen to have money, and not (say) Welsh speakers in Gwynedd. I believe that even Northern Ireland outperforms the Welsh economy.

    I would also be curious to learn whether, apart from your well-documented 'weakness' for English footballers, Anglophobia permeates your whole being :

    As far as I'm aware you are interested in history in so far as it shows the United Kingdom to have acted dishonourably, in sport in so far as you can celebrate English defeats, in betting in so far as you can back England's opponents.

    It is generally believed that irrational. obsessional and extreme hatreds often have some form of sexual component. Thus Hitler's anti-semitism is believed by some to have been caused by an inferiority complex caused by his having only one testicle, or alternately from his having contracted syphilis from a Jewish prostitute in his youth.

    So why exactly do you hate the English so much :

    As your Anglophobia would appear to be often tinged by a fear and hatred of homosexuals, I would not attribute your complex to the kind of abnormalities in the genitalia so often found in the North Welsh as a side-effect of inbreeding, but rather to the legacy of some unfortunate experiences you may have had in your youth.
