I was playing cricket when Christian Eriksen suffered a cardiac arrest. I’ve not watched it since, finding the fact that television images were shown live of a human being fighting for his life more than a little tactless. I’ve heard some say that watching a first response team act in the way they did was a good thing in that it showed people how to react and execute CPR should they ever find themselves in a situation where someone they know needs it. I’m not convinced by that argument, but I see the point has some merit. As for showing Eriksen’s partner in obvious distress however, well, that’s beyond excuse.
All of this of course has overshadowed the fact that “Euro 2020” has actually gotten underway. A year late it may be, but what is it that is said about being better late than never? I’m very much hoping it is going to provide some serious betting action for The Poacher because at the moment, the Sports portfolio seems to be in something of a state of stasis.
No bets again last week from Sports Service 1, and none of course from the out of season Scottish Football Income Booster. Just two wagers from Sports Service 2 – a win and a loss for a tiny overall deficit – and to date just two covering the Euros from The Poacher, which has got off to a good start with two winners. Let’s hope this will be the start of a good month of football betting.
