Josh Tongue secured a pub landlord a £50000 winning bet by playing for England this summer. The landlord bet on him doing so when he spotted Tongue‘s talent 15 years ago.
The landlord has given Tongue £5000 to be put into a trust for his son.
I guess the bookie assumes that most people lose the betting slip over the years for this sort of stuff.
Same as Timpsons, who offer a lifetime replacement watch battery for only £10 more than a one-off, provided you show your original receipt/guarantee each time it’s replaced.
Chatting to the guy in the shop he said I was the only person to have come in for a free replacement that month, and they upsell about 30-40 deals each month.

I’m guessing it was something like a £10 bet?
Odd of 5,000-1?
