    FA Cup - Aston Villa fan 'put house and life savings' on his team winning the final

    An Aston Villa supporter 'lost his house and life savings' after betting on Tim Sherwood's side to beat Arsenal in the FA Cup final at Wembley.





    Goals from Theo Walcott, Alexis Sanchez, Per Mertesacker and substitute Olivier Giroud made sure of Arsenal's second consecutive FA Cup at a packed Wembley Stadium.
    Sherwood's side were taught a lesson by Arsene Wenger's dominant attacking side and as it became increasingly evident that Villa's chances of getting back into the game were low.
    But more than the usual sympathy towards the losing fans, one individual in particular has now received plenty more after a remarkable bet was reported.
    Tim Sherwood promises Villa clear-out after final humiliation
    According to journalist David Blackmore, one Villa supporter on the London Underground told him he was told by a psychic to bet his life savings and house on the Villains coming out as winners in the showpiece final.



    "Just met an Aston Villa fan on the Tube. He was told by a psychic to put his home and life savings on his team winning," Blackmore said.

    a guy he doesnt know on the train casually told him he bet all his money on villa to win the final? i doubt this story is actually true but if it is then the guy deserves to lose his money n house. psychic r bullshit.

    If you have an IQ low enough to go all in on anything let alone with a side that wasn't far off getting relegated I find it hard to believe he could tie his own shoes let alone own a house and have life savings so I'm fairrrrrly confident this journalist is trying to get his name out there with a rather tall story.

    4-0 actually but it is still time to jump off the top of Big Ben.

    How much could a Villa fan have had to bet on the game to begin with? £20? £50?
