    Seriously? I don't know if we can justify any more money on this.

    Not sure I want to put another 2 quid on it considering how I got nowhere near any of the numbers tonight.

    Feels like I have to though, imagine if your numbers came up and you hadn't paid 2 quid for a ticket!

    Go on give it one more go!!!

    I know the odds against winning it are astronomical , but imagine how sick Malky and his deserters would feel if we did :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

    I know I feel inclined to carry on until the jackpot is won, I think everyone has the mentality in their head that "Someone has to win it" :biggrin:

    Would love to be able to pour an absolute tonne into Watford and STILL have more than enough money for me to worry about anything for the rest of my life! :drinking:

    Christ, putting half of £150 mill into Watford would still be £75 mill, what we could do with that is insane.

    I'm going to enter myself til its won. Only do it every few months, just in case.

    I would get my driving license, buy a car, get a PS3, and then buy Watford. I would give it £10m to pay off the debts, and then do as I see fit. I think I would make the academy facilities the best in the world, and then buy Arsenal's half of London Colney just for the sake of it.

    I would then buy all of Cardiff's team and then terminate all of their contracts, just to spite Manky.

    OK, I will buy the tickets again.

    What concerns me now is the extra 2 bonus numbers. This makes the odds of winning over 100 million to 1, meaning this sort of jackpot is likely to come up more and more often. I think what we'll do in future is reserve some ad money each month into a lottery fund, and play a percentage of that fund when the Jackpot gets stupidly high. Luckily, due to Junes ridiculoulsy large amount of visits we can afford another dip into the lottery pool.

    What we'd do with £150 million doesn't bear thinking about. Anyone with over 1000 posts on here wouldn't have a mortgage to pay :biggrin:.

    Does that apply if we've not even bought a house yet? :sign15:

    Good plan, one post a minute for the next 8 hours should just about do it!

    Just plough it into the club. Don't bother with the people on here :D

    Wouldn't everyone get taxed on it if you gave the money out?

    Ah, good point. Long term users then.

    I'd pay the Bear to come back and answer that one.

    I think there would be tax, that's why they have syndicate forms on their website as it would provide proof we're part of a syndicate and it's not a gift.

    I should be OK on both of the options you offered, thanks in advance, I think I'll re mortgage tomorrow :biggrin:

    I'd buy Doyley a weeks Watford academy course thing they do every half term.

    :biggrin:

    Gonna go buy my ticket now, massively tempted to change a number, looking back at past results it's highly unlikely the same number comes up twice in two draws. Despite it being based on chance.

    £150m - imagine how many super injunctions you could have with that

    I'd apply for a super injunction on the phrase super injunction. The media would then have to shut up about em.

    £150 million? Where do I begin? I have so many ideas. My latest is to buy a large chunk of the allotments behind the Rookery and have a 2nd pitch there that can be swapped with the current pitch at any time. Terminals on the back of every seat would let you catch up with all the other football scores that day, and also log you in to our online casino.

    And a roof.

    Perhaps for those that don't qualify for that, Orns could be cashed in at £1 per Orn? :naughty:

    So I thought it was time that we went all 21st century and signed up online with www.national-lottery.co.uk to get the tickets. Here they are:

    I've blanked out the security numbers and exact time they were purchased just in case ;). The good thing about doing this online is that I don't have to walk around with cash and they'll pay me directly when we win the big one!

    12 quid on the lottery eh, going for it!

    I'll probably do 2 sets, see how that goes, will head up to Tesco tomorrow afternoon and then we can bask in our glory!

    It also shows how tough it is to win, none of those numbers were in the last 2 sets I chose on Friday!

    Directly into the forums bank account?

    Only you have access to this? We won't get Meister, suddenly disappearing to the Cayman Islands on a speedboat? :biggrin:
     
  27. Defunct

    No, learjet.

    Just a quick note on the forum account: I get the income from the ads paid into an account that is online only, and I've not applied for any cards or chequebooks for that account. This keeps everything nice and tidy and separate from my real life money, plus no chance of being cloned and getting the money "nicked". When we do things like buy these Lottery tickets, or purchase Amazon vouchers etc. then I just transfer the money over and buy the stuff from my real account

    If you win, can you buy me a hug with Karen Gillan?

    A hug? She was found wandering her hotel naked so I'm sure that's not too hard!

    I know but she wouldn't go for me :doom:
