Unless you're a fat cunt from the central belt you won't win it.

They should rename it the gastric belt cause ab'dy's so fat!

 

I'm in for this. I'd more than likely have a Hasselblad H4D. Just wow! After that, a hoose in Gracia, Barcelona. After that, probably Craig Gordon. After that... I dunno. Probably the black and gold top.

Am I missing something here, I canna see how he couldn't remember the same numbers he's picked for 6 years? :itch-chin:

He had a fast play card which has the numbers on it and it looks like a bar code so you just hand it over and they scan it for your ticket rather than having to write them out each week.

 

There's a picture of him holding it in the paper.

 

I foresee a rapid decent into alcohol abuse and he'll be found sat at his local every night telling everyone what might have been. :clangers2:

Euromillions winners Colin and Chris Weir have given £750,000 to allow Premiership club Partick Thistle to create a new youth academy.

The Thistle Weir Youth Academy will be run by the Glasgow club's former striker and manager, Gerry Britton, who was already head of youth development.
The Weirs, from Largs in Ayrshire, won £161m two years ago.
Colin Weir explained that they wished to help as they were "longstanding fans of Partick Thistle".
"What impressed us was that it wouldn't just be for elite players but would also encourage local youngsters into football for the sheer enjoyment and fun of it," he said.
"Having seen the club's determination to get this project off the ground, we decided that, as we were in a position to offer financial assistance, we wanted to help them achieve their dream."
The Weirs have previously donated large sums to a number of causes, including their own charitable trust to help health, sport, cultural, recreational and animal welfare projects and the Yes Scotland campaign for independence.
Thistle stress that the academy "will be run at arms' length from Partick Thistle Football Club" despite the trustees consisting of academy director Britton, club chairman David Beattie, director Greig Brown and general manager Ian Maxwell.
Thistle are in their first season back in Scotland's top flight and the announcement came ahead of Monday evening's visit by Hibernian.
The academy will be based out of the club's Firhill Stadium in Glasgow's Maryhill with the aim to "create a professional pathway to football for 120 elite players, while offering the chance to play football to up to 1000 boys and girls for enjoyment and fitness".
Thistle's existing set-up has "performance academy" status and comprises six teams of 20 boys each training three nights per week.
The new package will extend that to offer professional coaching, physiotherapy support, nutritional advice and all the benefits of current sports science knowledge currently enjoyed by first-team players.
Initially, 400-500 boys and girls, from the age of five, will join the academy to play football for fitness and fun, with the best moving into the elite teams.
Britton, who has been combining his role with his career as a solicitor, said: "This is a chance for the Thistle Weir Youth Academy to give hundreds of kids the opportunity to get involved in football, for fun or by creating a path to professional football for others.
"There is huge potential pool of talent out there and it's going to be our job at the Thistle Weir Youth Academy to find youngsters and give them everything they need to become the professional footballers of the future."
