"Tim Henman loses again. Coral the best bookmakers around."
A review of Coral by Harold Jerseyman - Saturday 4th of September 2004
Damn that Henman. I always have a little bet on the Wimbledon championships. My grandchildren like to have a bet too and we also bet for them on the Grand National. Of course, Tim didn’t win anything. Maybe next time I will forgo my loyalties and make some money. Don’t get me wrong the bet makes sport much more exciting. There’s something in it then.
At Coral they take bets on all the major championships, RRugby world cup, European football championships, Cricket, Wimbledon Tennis championships and all the major and regular racing, of course, amongst others. It is because they are well established that I like them.
On the internet there are many betting organisations to choose from and it is a cut throat industry. However, I like the atmosphere of the bookmakers, especially at Coral. It’s the excitement that gets me going. I don’t get excited looking at a computer screen. I like to feel the winnings in my hand, to see the faces of others winning or losing. It’s all part of the betting game.
At Coral they are very friendly. You get to see people face to face and actually talk with them about stories of others bizarre winning streaks and so on. It’s like a community there. Online betting is not for me, I need something more visceral.
I recommend Coral as it is a place that is keeping this part of betting alive. I am a people person and enjoy betting there because of this. They are lovely people.
