To be honest Ladcrooks and Coral are pathetic bookmakers and wouldn't be missed if they closed all their shops. Betdaq exchange was usable now and again before Ladcrooks took them over and now it is a ghost town with very little being matched even on Premier League match odds. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Thank you.

Im guessing down to the stake limits being introduced on the FOBTs. 

Never nice to see people lose their jobs, and the degenerative gamblers will find some other way of spunking up every last penny they have anyway.

There are reports that the CEO and the Chairman of GVC sold off the bulk of their stakes in GVC, resulting a double digit fall of the stock price. Investors are spooked to say the least from the vote of non confidence of the 2 heads.
