I completely misread that as was skimming through and immediately thought of David Brent and his article for Inside Paper

I particularly liked his 'gamble' on Stephens. He had a chance to cash in on £10m+ but gambled and it paid off!

Indeed, another example of a calm, calculated gamble.

A school friend of mine who ran a bookies in Worthing, has told me on many occasions of how he 'protected TB ' from jealous punters when he was betting in his shop probably under age but he didnt say so. They have remained on friendly talking terms to this day and if he bumps into TB he invariably puts his hand in his pocket to buy him a beer,. No sure whether TB actually drinks or not he didnt say but my mate certainly does.

TB loves a cider!

Tony Bloom definitely does, he was chugging on a Corona in the New Inn after the Brentford game.
