How nice....and convenient! (i'm suspicious about the timing of this.)
"A family have cashed in a bet on Red Rum winning the Grand National 43 years ago - after discovering an unclaimed betting slip. Bob Holmes found evidence of the £1 bet while going through his late father-in-law's paperwork. Through a shop code, William Hill found that the bet had been placed at odds of 11-1, meaning a payout of £12. But the firm decided to add inflation, making it £130."
Are you doubting the integrity of Bill Hill or something? You disgust me, how do you even sleep at night!
*as I manage to dig out my granddad's betting slip dating back from 1961 on the spurs double just in time for the 2017 one...!
