Football Widow Strikes back!

FOOTBALL widow Angela Taylor is celebrating after winning £250,000 at the bookies. Fed up at being left at home by her partner and son every weekend, she got her own back with a successful flutter.

Angela, 43, studied form books and statistics then wagered £2,000 on a nine-event accumulator. She picked the winners and other team placings in the Premiership, Championship, League One, League Two, Scottish leagues, the FA Cup, the Scottish Cup and even the predicted the outcome of the FA Trophy.

Angela, of Wilmslow, Cheshire, waited until partner Austin, 53, and son Joe, 16, had gone off to see Manchester United play, then placed the bet over the phone.
