How many Golden Gamble winners do we have on here and what did you spend you winnings on/do with your signed football?

Wasn't it AthleticoSpizzRover who said 'After You' to someone in the queue for Golden Gamble tickets and who thus was one number away from winning?

I won the Golden Goal once - when £50 meant a lot of to a teenager as I was then.

Younger viewers - you bought a sealed ticket with an exact time on it e.g 52 mins 13 secs and won if the first goal time matched your ticket. Much more fun the Golden Gamble which I don't do. There was a 0-0 ticket too which must have been fun to hold!

Our little gang famously won pizza earlier this season, only for some of it to be nicked by pcunter who sits behind us

Haven't bought a Golden Gamlbe since it was £9 to get into EP so it was easier to give your pound coin change to the vendor than put it in your pocket

Despite buying 2 GG every matchI have never won and I was less than pleased when the guide who took us on a Stadium tour at the beginning of December said that he had won it recently. Worse still he said that he knows a woman who has won it 3 times. My row in UW did win Pizzas in November and I did win a signed ball back in the 70's but thats it.

What was the golden gamble number on Saturday and can you claim if you win but don't notice on the day?

Never bothered with it. A former work colleague and general bum who didn't deserve it, won £10,000 on a Reading FC scratch card though.

Dunno the number, must check. There is a page on the OS that lists all winning numbers and prize winners. You have until the end of the season to claim your prize if you have a winner.

I won a signed football last season on the GG. After spending about an hour trying to decipher the signatures I put it in a cupboard.

I won a signed ball in a raffle once. Didn't want it but seemed a shame to throw it away.

Put it on ebay and got about a tenner for it, and some abuse from Southampton Royal when I posted it up on Classifieds :|

It was me who was said "after you" to and who won £1,000 at the last match of last season.

No, not that event. Sure it was either Mr A or ASR.

Won it a few years back, when sitting on the west stand...

I've always found it's never a ticket that is sold outside the ground.
