10 pounds to 60000 pounds

A canny Scottish punter has pocketed £60,000 from a £10 bet after predicting seven league winners.
The Ladbrokes customer’s stunning seven-fold accumulator was placed way back before the start of the season.
As well as picking the winners of every Scottish league – Celtic, Hibs , Livingston and Arbroath – he also selected the teams that won the Championship, League One and League Two in England.
The man, who is in his 50s and from the Borders, does not wish to be named.

But he would have had his heart in his mouth at the weekend as he needed Newcastle to pip Brighton to top spot in the Championship and for Portsmouth to claim an unlikely triumph in League Two in order to complete his bet.

And it went right down to the wire with Jack Grealish's 89th-minute equaliser for Aston Villa against Brighton ensuring that Newcastle pipped the Albion to the league title.In addition, there was a chaotic end to the League Two season as both Doncaster and Plymouth Argyle looked to have clinched the title, only for Portsmouth to nick it at the death.The lucky punter won £60,734.38 from his £10 bet

Jessica Bridge of Ladbrokes said: "Hindsight has paid off big time here for this customer for such a small outlay.”

Chicken stays in the borders? But he thought Hibs had no chance so can't be him :)
