    As the header says. Is it closed to all?

    This thread made me go and look at the last couple of pages of the other thread.

    I wish gigilo all the very best.

    I don't read the thread as I'm not interested in betting every day but I know what's involved in doing masses of prep just for a Saturday, sharing it with people and basically putting your head on the block only to be met by scorn in some quarters.

    I'm getting ever closer to giving up altogether, not for any reason like that but I'm big enough to admit I'm no longer doing as well as I used to and I always said I'd know when to quit. Fortunately I'm still miles in front overall but profit over the last couple of seasons is either marginal or non-existent and I'm getting too old to be bothered with the hassle.

    As I've said elsewhere, once my move to Spain finally happens I will be giving up completely as it will be that much harder to maintain bookie accounts due to legislation.

    I suppose if Catherine Zeta Jones suddenly phoned me up and offered to support my every need for the next 30 years I could give it up immediately.

    My luck's so bad if I won the euromillions I'd only get about £7m...

    The lesson is if anyone dare to question what he is saying he spits his dummy out.
    Sycophancy only allowed.
    He'll be back, his ego demands it.

    Edit; Didn't know he was ill and his mother too.
    Health is all that counts.
    Best of luck to both.

    Why don’t you start a daily picks thread and we can see can you even get one percent of the winners he had over the years. Troll.

    You sound upset, are you unable to pick your own selections?
    You can't win following Giggsy I'm afraid. The odds have long gone and you can't rearrange the bets to suit the winning selections AFTER they have run.
    I corresponded with Giggs a few years ago by email and it soon became obvious he was contradictory at best.
    I'm not a troll, I just don't like people to be taken in and I like to be more discerning/ less gullible than most on here.

    BTW there's a poster on that thread called AYRwinner who, at the end, posted up 3 winners out of 3 selections but not many were taking much notice.
    Perhaps you should pm him and hold your hand out?
    Good luck

    Maybe you should **** off somewhere else instead of coming on here for the express purpose of winding people up.

    Dear me, don't you donuts read?
    I'm trying to help you and save you money, not wind people up.
    Jesus, such gullibility.
    Don't listen to all this 'i'm a million points in front, this month' baloney.
    Do your own figures and see if you are in front and double check what he says.
    It's shite

    If you read the thread instead of just being here to wind folk up, you'd know that I have been very critical of Gigilos claims and am not losing money following the thread.

    I just don't like trolls.

    Now **** off somewhere else ya wee wankstain.

    gigilo charges no one for the tips he puts up here. Plenty of people are delighted with them - you and other recent critics included, if your previous posts on this forum are to be believed.

    Yeah, he tipped a few nice winners but if you add it all up and look at the claims he makes its nonsense. No ****** is making money off his tips no matter how much his followers try to kid themselves.
    He admitted to me himself that if one doesn't get the prices he posts (you cant) then you will not make a profit.
    Read back on the thread and you'll see this admission in between endless kabooms.
    His followers should've took note of that but were too busy being blinded by his kaboom bollocks.
    My criticism of him was extremely mild and he has been berated often over the years so I'm surprised he has spat the dummy.
    Perhaps it was my offer to be an agent and put some multis on for him that got him running.

    Anyway, you all seem set in your minds that he's 100% kosher.
    Pointless trying to educate the brainwashed
    Good luck
