Unsurprisingly, the gambler’s run is an attacking tactic long perfected by turf accountant fave, Michael Owen. In Ron’s eyes, this means little Mickey is prepared to make countless fruitless sorties into the channels on the off chance that one of Steven Gerrard’s Hollywood Balls will eventually “pick him in.”

Ron might say:
Credit to the little fella, he’s had to deal with a lot of fighting balls tonight but he’s stayed patient, looked alive, if you like, and that’s a real gambler’s run Gerrard’s spotted for the opener.

Mrs. Ron might say:
I thought it would be ideal you and me working together, Ron but all day, I’ve just made coffee and gone down the bookies for McCoist and Townsend. You’re on your own tomorrow. I’ve made my last gambler’s run for that pair, that’s for sure.
