Leicester City’s victory over Everton at Goodison means that they’ll be top of the Premier League on Christmas Day – very few people would have predicted that.
However, one lucky punter out there did, and they’ve landed themselves a fortune for doing so.
On the first day of the season, they put £5 on Leicester to be top of the league on Christmas Day. With that now guaranteed, they’ve landed a nice Christmas bonus.
The £5.00 bet at odds of 100/1 mean that they’ve just netted £5,000.
Looks like @WillKirwaan_ could be having a good Christmas this year… #LCFC #BookieBashing pic.twitter.com/mI3vXSlUE7

But despite the Tweet above naming @WillKirwaan_ as the man due for a huge pay day, it appears that the bet didn’t belong to him.
ffs it wasn't my bet I only tweeted it because I'm a Leicester fan..

Either that or he doesn’t fancy getting the drinks in.
