Football Index Collapse

Post by CombatClaret » Fri Mar 12, 2021 5:58 pm

I'm very sorry for anyone who had funds in this company.
I love fantasy football and it was everywhere I looked, podcasts, forums etc

Toward the end it seemed to be operating close to a ponzi scheme.

Amazed it didn't get shut down soon, Gambling Commission has a lot to answer for as a lot of people flagged the company to them. Even the CEO is in a ration interview said ""to be honest the Gambling Commission doesn't fully understand all the ins and outs of our business model"

A good break down of the issues from a pro gambler.

Not sorry to see them go - their pitch side adverts were appalling with flashing and strobing effects.

Interesting concept. But even as someone who put a few quid on it was difficult to understand and follow.

Spotted something on my Facebook feed called Earth 2.0 - where you invest in Virtual land... I find it bizarre what people will throw their money at.
