On behalf of Ladbrokes PLC Ground Operations (Fratton Park), I am authorised to issue the following statement:
Bizarre.
End of statement.
Other interesting (but not official things) to note.. Each week, we get asked for prices for various goalscorers to get a hat trick. We take various bets on various players to get a hat trick. The first time someone gets a hat trick at Fratton Park in recent memory, for some equally bizarre reason, nobody has asked for, nor placed any hat-trick bets.
Finally, for the benefit of the one person who just doesn't get it, the reason 7-4 is not listed in the correct score section of the match-day coupon is exactly the same reason that 139-57 is not listed in the correct scores section, namely that an A2 match day coupon (which is the size that such a coupon would need to be to make the writing on it anything near legible with that many combinations of scores on it) will not go through the till, nor the security camera. Thankyou for your cooperation. Have a nice day.
Regards,
Jim
