29 strikers managed it last year, including Nahki Wells. surely The Messiah would be in the top 30 strikers? He's getting on a bit too much for me. Plus he rarely reaches double figures at this level. As I say, cup man for me. On his day he's quality. Should be an interesting bet if you get any biters. Rarely? He's never hit double figures above League 1! You never know though with The Messiah.

It's a shit bet, with far more caveats than Mr never-attend said before - but he looks fit and he's great under Larry. Priceless! Caveats my arse. 11 or more goals pays out. 29 strikers in the championship managed it last year. If Beckford is as good as DATM's Beckford Wank Bank Club think, put your money where your mouth is. Or is he not good enough to be in the exclusive club of the almost 30 who managed it last year in the Championship? Put up or shut up time Beckford lovers. I already have. Preston will do ok next year, they're not the lower league nomads we were. But you've changed from ten goals, all comps, to ten plus and league only. Those are caveats.

I always said league goals. 10 or less you lose, 11 or more you win. It's not rocket science, he just has to beat Wells' 2014/15 plus 28 others scoring rate in the Championship. He's a well paid striker, shouldn't he be in the top 30 Championship scorers?

Rarely would I want success for another Championship club's player but Marcusd makes it real easy to cheer for Beckford this upcoming season.

Just a reminder of the original bet, as a few are running scared and accusing me of moving the goalposts when I haven't... The bet is quite simple and has not changed one bit, if Beckford scores more than 10 league goals this coming season for PNE, I'll pay out and pretend to eat my hat. 10 or less, you pay out. Here is the original post... downatthemac.proboards.com/post/1736402/threadSo who wants to bet a tenner against me, that he doesn't score more than 10 League goals for Preston this coming season? If he scores more than ten, I'll pay out for the first eight who bet against me. If he scores ten or less league goals for PNE, you owe me a tenner? 29 other Championship players did this last season including Wells (on 11), so surely The Messiah can manage it too? So, any takers then? Cash, no charity nonsense.

To be fair about the post-moving allegations, it was all about the double figures until a bet became involved. Now it's 11 or above. In the interests of fairness I'd make it 10 or above personally, (actual double figures as first mentioned). Not as if you are getting a lot of takers with the bet set up as it is anyway. Do the right thing and make it 10 or more

Am struggling to be motivated to take up Marcus ' challenge... His demands seem to change like those of scargill at an NUM conference ... Just about every post he's written he's edited so it's hard to know exactly what he's after .... Truth is, if Beckford plays a full season for Preston he will score ten league goals.. If he doesn't then he might not .. Not that I really give a shit... Beckford now plays for someone else and a club who are direct rivals... So I hope he doesn't

The bet is 11 or higher as that is what Wells and 28 others managed last season. I don't think Beckford will manage 11 or more goals. It's only 1 goal above reaching double figures, hardly a massive hike. That's the bet take it or leave it.

The original post laying out the bet is unedited and as was.. downatthemac.proboards.com/post/1736402/threadIt should be quite simple to understand the rules of the bet, even for a retard.. I do edit a lot of posts of an evening, usually because I type on my Iphone using DATM via a browser. It's not always possible to see what you've typed before you post it, so there's usually quite a few typo's to correct when you can see the whole post. I don't know if it was because I was used to the Iphone 4 keyboard, but the one on the 6 plus seems harder to type with.

If he scores more than ten, I'll pay out for the first eight who bet against me. If he scores ten or less league goals for PNE, you owe me a tenner? Was thinking about this earlier. If the bet still stands? 11 or more championship goals for Preston, tenner, then I'll take you up on your offer

I reckon he'll have 11 by the end of January. With the right management team and feeling settled in the team, he'll be a force next season.
Not putting a bet on it, though.

(Haven't got the time to trawl through this thread at the mo). I think it's a fair bet, I'm not that confident at all, that's why I'm limiting it to 8. Either way it will add a bit of fun to results elsewhere in the division.

Didn't do badly at Scunthorpe (under whoever) or at Leeds, prior to Grayson arriving, or under Robins. Didn't do badly at Everton either. I think you're underestimating him.

I see the Beckford fans have gone quiet. 2 goals in 11 appearances? Like I said, not worth the risk and not worth the wages. I'll take ten goals on Beckford for PNE. You need ten plus PNE League goals from Beckford in the upcoming season for me to pay out. If you agree, you're number one. 7 more to go. (I'll stand £80 loss if all take and will pretend to eat my hat). ! £10 bets, no charity. Sick of lining the pockets of chuggers, clothing firms and rich directirs in the name of Chariddy. I donate to my ones if choice when I choose to. Tenner? Why not, you're on! If it was all comps I'd have a slice of that, he's fond of a cup goal or two is Beckford. Just league goals is too tight for me. I would have had Beckford back here in a shot ,sincerely hope he gets a good reception when he comes back ,his goals single handed kept us up a while back ,forget his injuries ,he was injured end of ,when he played he did the job .
