I'd just see it as a chance to cover costs for the day in case we don't win the cup, but probably won't bother.

I'll never understand betting against your own team, gotta be desperate for a gamble if people are happy to bet against their own team in a cup final for the sake of a few sheckles :shock:

C O Y M S !!!!!!!!!
I often bet against my side (in a different sport) because I'd happily lose money in order to see my team win.

Distasteful ,is that like passing wind in a lift. No one will be more gutted than me if we lose, but 60 odd years of watching Aldershot, including Shortwood means once in a while have I taken a little insurance against total depression after a defeat. For the record I hardly ever bet, so desperate for a gamble is mildly offensive. As for a few sheckles, my commute to watch the Shots from Devon costs me 31/2 hours on the train and £80 fare a pop!
Each to their own (it wasn’t me who made the comment about being “desperate” or “sheckles “by the way) Having suffered a lot of disappointments in my 45+ years of watching the Shots, I know it will happen sometimes, but betting on our opponents to win isn’t a kind of compensation I feel comfortable with.
Depends how much you’re potentially winning I suppose, I’m a problem gambler and if I back the moor to win in 90 I don’t think I’ll be winning £50 or a ton it would be much higher than that which is why I’ll ignore it as it’s a special game but if I had the money again who knows….
In your heyday a lot more than that definitely
