All the time. Lost hundreds during the 2018/19 title run-in betting against us.

Have you ever bet against City in a big match?

Always Pam. I'm really weird! I've backed Arsenal to win league at 6s, 5s and 9-2. I won money on the scum many times(over 300 quid at the etihad a few years back) I've won hundreds on the dippers too. Early in the season I had a 10er on Palace at 14s to beat us, we won 4-2 but I got paid out because it was the 2 goal lead payout bet. I've had countless bets on a host of teams. I had Everton to draw at half time at new year at 12s at half time because I had a feeling. I absolutely love City, but I'm just so superstitious that I bet against us a lot. P.S I've lost more than I've won so it's working:)Is it evil to bet on City to lose a big match or is money no compensation? I am scared. But I know people who do it. Money is the root of all evil, though, so I'm not doing it. But I think Arsenal are 5-1 to win, which seems generous odds to me. Don't care. Not doing it. Who admits they have? Or would ever consider it?
I had City not to beat Brighton, my biggest loss ever. Spent £500 on the trip before that.All the time. Lost hundreds during the 2018/19 title run-in betting against us.
My mate won £100 after the scum beat us 3-2 when we were trying to win the league against them. He was still gutted. We won it later anyway but it would have been nice to have beat them that day. Being 2-0 up at half time didn't help either.Every cup final. Funnily enough the two I didn't were Wigan and Chelsea (CL). Will probably throw up after doing it for the FA Cup this year mind.

I always place a silly bet on City to lose. Fortunately I have not won very often. Just put a quid on Jesus to score first and Rodri booked first @125/1 with Betfair.

Ha! Ha! That would be the 4-1, was it? Anyway, a lesson for us all. Never bet against the boys in blue. But I have the fear today. Piss off Arsenal.I had City not to beat Brighton, my biggest loss ever. Spent £500 on the trip before that.
Thank the Monry Python knights. They say the Monty Python God wills it. And they have been right 4 times out of the last 5 seasons.I always place a silly bet on City to lose. Fortunately I have not won very often.

Absolutely.
In 2014 when we needed a point to win the title, West Ham were 25-1 to beat us. I'd been offered a deal by Betfred that if I joined their website, a £50 bet would be doubled. So I had a ton on and would have won £2,500. I didn't want to win, but it would have softened the blow.
The next year, some other company offered me something similar, so I chucked a tenner (doubled to £20) on Hull to win at the Etihad at 33-1. Hull were winning in injury time when James Milner equalised from a free kick in a match that a draw was absolutely no use to us. I was fucking fuming! :-)
