Football: A late bloomer, starting with Leicester City

Chapter 29 The 'miserable' Rampes who wants to live a good life (please follow up)

"Hello, Lampes, welcome to the Sky Sports Premier League column."

Sky Sports beauty presenter Georgie Thompson looked very sexy and appeared in this show with a smile on her face, wearing a dress with elegant tones and wild style.

"The topic of this issue is actually very simple. We all know that you have a bet on the team that will win the Premier League this season."

"I would like to ask, is this news true?"

Georgie Thompson looked teasingly and said with a smile, "Did you really bet five thousand euros on Leicester City?"

Sitting opposite Georgie Thompson was a middle-aged man dressed in ordinary clothes. He shrugged helplessly, "Yes, I did. This is my ticket."

He took out a bookmaker's ticket and handed it to Georgie Thompson.

After taking it, Georgie Thompson quickly pointed the ticket at the camera closest to him in order to clearly show the content on it to the audience.

She wanted to prove that the program they produced was not just groundless rumors and ridicule, but was actually true.

"Let's see, it's indeed Leicester City, five thousand euros."

At this point, the smile on her face became thicker, with a hint of confusion, "The odds of winning are 1 to 5000."

"This means that if Mr. Lampez's ticket ultimately succeeds in winning the lottery, he will receive a huge bonus of 500 million euros."

"Even if a large amount of taxes and fees have to be deducted, the remaining money can still allow a family to live a lifetime of food and clothing without worries."

Then, Georgie Thompson turned his attention to Lampes and said in a joking tone: "Have you figured out how to spend this money?"

This program was broadcast live in real time, with hundreds of thousands of viewers watching it in front of TV sets or mobile phones.

As a football powerhouse, men here generally watch this kind of program as their own variety show.

"Hahahaha! Leicester City! Five thousand euros! A huge bonus of twenty-five million!"

In the live broadcast room, the humorous barrage was quickly sent out, and most of them were followed by a few "laughing and crying" emoticons, and the meaning was self-evident.

"I think this gentleman should really think about how to spend such a huge bonus?"

"Instead of worrying about how to spend it, worry about whether the money will be enough to cure his brain if it is taken to the hospital."

"I really can't understand why he would invest this money instead of investing this money in Kardashian? I think if Kardashian became president of the United States, she would come back and thank him for his support."

"Hahahaha, he doesn't look like a particularly rich person. Five thousand euros is really a lot of money. Why just throw it away like this?"

"What's the difference between this and throwing it into the river? Why don't you just burn it at home and light cigarettes? Is it such a waste?"

"..."

Wave after wave of barrages were sent out, and British netizens expressed their opinions one after another.

Georgie Thompson and the protagonist of the incident, Rampes, could also see these barrages.

Georgie Thompson followed the barrage and continued to ask: "Let's do some understanding first. How is Mr. Lampes's work and family?"

Lampez seemed to have guessed this question a long time ago. He shook his head slightly and said, "In fact, as the barrage said, my conditions are not good."

"I'm a builder in Leicestershire, my wife works in a brewery and we have a ten-year-old son and a four-year-old daughter."

"On top of that, I still have some mortgage payments to make, and that money was originally set aside for the next few months of the year."

At this point, Lampes actually had some regret in his eyes, and he was a little helpless, "After I irrationally used money to bet on Leicester City, my wife has been quarreling with me these days."

"I haven't been home for seven or eight days, and I really don't know what to do." "The mortgage, my children's tuition and living expenses are what I'm most worried about right now. After participating in this program, I will go back to work on the construction site soon." .”

"I at least want to maintain the stability of this family, which is a big problem for me now."

After hearing this, Georgie Thompson shrugged, as if he was also helpless and regretful.

She said with a tone of not understanding: "Can you tell me about the situation at that time? Why did you make such a choice and action?"

"Alas..." Lampes sighed first, and then said with a painful expression: "There are three good friends on the construction site, a Liverpool fan, and two Arsenal fans."

"We had a drink one time and talked about our respective teams, and I also mentioned that the team I support is Leicester City."

"What they said at the time was quite ugly, saying that our club would not win a Premier League title or an FA Cup title in another 100 years."

"I started arguing with them a little bit, and in the end everyone was in a bad mood."

"The three of them finally took their own money and bet on each other's favorite club. What can I say? If their home team does not win the Premier League championship, they can at least make a good amount of extra money and hedge their emotional risks. .”

"Then challenge me to dare to bet on my own Leicester City."

Lampes shook his head, his eyes full of regret, "I didn't control my emotions well. I made the first bet of [-] euros, and then added another [-] euros at their instigation."

At the end, he even had some emotion, "In some sense, I am not a qualified husband, nor a qualified father. It was my impulse that affected my family. In the past few months, Live a tight life."

"I also take the opportunity of this show to apologize to my wife. I will work hard at the construction site and strive to let us live the life we ​​had before, or even a better life, as soon as possible."

After listening to what Rampes said, Georgie Thompson next to him nodded and said to the camera: "In fact, gambling, including football lottery, is a bad habit."

"It may cause a breakdown in a family's relationship, but I hope everyone will not imitate it."

"Especially impulsive gambling decisions, at some point, it can change your life dramatically."

"Well, we thank Mr. Lampes for sharing."

"Before coming, he also asked me if I could use this program to have the gaming company refund the money to him privately and invalidate the lottery ticket."

With regret on his face, Georgie Thompson pursed his lips and said: "This is definitely against common sense. A well-established gaming company will not change its rules and make exceptions."

"I can only say that I hope Mr. Lampes will have a good memory in the future, thank you."

After saying the last sentence, this short program is over.

Lampes went backstage to collect his pay for being on the show, which was actually why he was here.

He has been really busy during this time...

As for Georgie Thompson, after leaving the camera on the stage, she laughed and chatted with several of her best friends, and her words were all condemning or ridiculing Rampes.

The barrage in the live broadcast room also kept spouting some words with ridicule and exclamation, and they whipped Lampez to death.

However, rather than whipping Lampers to death, it would be better to say that Leicester City was whipped to death.

After winning two consecutive games, they received some small attention, but what they received was more ridicule and laughter.

Everyone felt that they should not be in that position, and they all looked forward to their fall as soon as possible, and then went to express their feelings to their friends in a very good mood.

Look, my prediction was not wrong, I said they would definitely be relegated!
