Sports Spread Betting

Summary

My favourite bookmaker. Always has a good range of markets to trade, plus regular bonus offers for active clients.

Did you also know that if you want to talk about how Spreadex’s sports spread betting works, you have to wear skinny jeans, a white top and a black blazer? It’s true, because when I sat down with Andy Mckenzie from Spreadex for a bit of a chat about what sort of spread betting service they offer, and who for that’s what we wore. It just is…

Summary

Having dealt with Sporting Index for over 20 years now I have always found them professional, innovative, and compliant. They are one of the best sports spread betting firms in the UK.

I don’t often “like” things on Twitter, because I know that if I do whatever I have liked will be a hate crime in the not-too-distant future and I don’t want to end up like… Actually, I won’t mention any of the people who have inadvertently liked tweets that have got them into trouble because I haven’t really looked into the background of exactly what they said and if it has or hasn’t been taken out of context or if indeed it was, as the song says, “acceptable in the 80s”.

But, I did like one of Rory Bremner’s Tweets recently, because it was about sports spread betting rather than politics. This was great because he was due to host our 2023 awards a few days later, and as I was sitting next to him, and now we would definitely have something to talk about. I was really looking forward to discussing sports spread betting as I’ve used Sporting Index now for well over 20 years. Plus, Spreadex Sports were there too, so I knew at some point they’d be over to pitch for his business 😂.

I remember my first bet with Sporting Index so vividly. It was on football, I’d bet on total goals in a match, using their welcome offer, which was pretty generous at the time. I bought goals at 1.5/2 I think. This meant my max loss was £200, but for every goal over 2, I win £100. I was a student at the time at Southampton Polytechnic (now Southampton Solent) studying business studies. We watched the game in The Bedford pub. Amazingly, the game ended 3-2, so five goals in total. £300 in the bag. I’m pretty sure I spent it all vodka-Red Bull, and from there on my online handle because “bedfordtimes”, for reasons that will remain confidential.

I cannot tell you how boring I found university. I found it absolutely impossible to do any work so spent most of my time playing poker, trying out the Martingale roulette strategy at Grosvenor Casino and trading the financial markets.  Maybe it was dyslexia, maybe it’s my ADHD (which my wife is convinced I have (Rory too, so we had two things to talk about)), but either way, I did really badly. In fact, I flunked out and went work in the NYMEX oil trading exchange in New York.

If ChatGTP were around then I definitely would have used it, maybe I would have done better.

Usually, when I write these reviews with my SEO hat on I have a little look at Semrush (which I think stands for Search Engine Manipulation rather than search engine optimisation) to see what people are looking for and then try and answer their questions. Volume is pretty thin on the ground for Sporting Index terms, but let’s see what ChatGPT has to say about Sporting Index…

But as you can see there are not really that many questions please people are asking about Sporting Index, so I’ve run out of things to say.
