It’s not just the fans of Bradford City, Middlesbrough and Leicester City that are celebrating this evening as one lucky Dubliner has netted €25,740 from their €15 Treble bet.

Manchester City, Chelsea and Spurs will all be licking their wounds tonight after they were eliminated from the FA Cup but this Dublin gambler will probably be raising a few drinks to toast their exit after they defied odds of 1,715/1.

Liam Glynn, PR Executive at BoyleSports said “After suffering a seven figure loss on the football last weekend, we can bow a sigh of relief despite the lucky Dublin punter netting €25.7K from his €15 Treble on the underdog teams in the FA Cup.”

He added “We wish the lucky Dublin punter who defied the odds of 1715/1 happy spending and are thanking Middlesbrough Leicester and Bradford for upsetting the short priced favourites in the FA Cup this weekend. Our FA Cup Ante Post book is now looking a lot healthier as well following the exit of Manchester City, Chelsea and Tottenham.”

That’s not all as Paddy Power also confirmed that six of their customers also predicted the correct result in the Chelsea match.
