STUART TINNER will not be putting a penny of his [pounds sterling]250,000 Saracens jackpot on England beating the All Blacks on Saturday.
The 24-year-old job centre adviser from Hertfordshire, near London, has become an instant celebrity since winning a half-time kicking competition during Saracens' 24-23 Wembley win over South Africa on Tuesday -- after taking off his shoes to punt the ball.
'I would love to replica breitling see England win on Saturday, but I won't be putting any money on them winning,' he said. 'I would love to see them play some rugby and kick a little bit less.' Tinner is hoping to be at Twickenham, but has yet to find a ticket for himself and friends in Welwyn Replica Dolce & Gabbana Garden City.
He describes himself as a keen player for Welwyn's fifth XV.
'I'm a hooker and do not often kick -- I am more used to doing the hard yards, but I can kick when asked,' he said after he won the competition to hit the cross-bar from 30 metres.
Tinner removed his shoes before he took his kick because he felt he could give the ball a better strike in his stocking feet.
Saracens had devised the competition to help promote the challenge match, and they picked three spectators at random who had answered a text appeal from the official programme. Tinner's deed was matched by the Saracens team, who came back from a half-time deficit of 18-6 to win in front of 46,000 spectators at the home of English football. Tinner added:
embroidered patches 'I am a keen fan and entered the competition in the hope it might lead to a free gift, but never guessed I would end up winning a goal-kicking competition.' He also made a vow that if he won, he would treat the Saracens cheerleaders to dinner. 'Yes, the dinner is still on, but only once Saracens have paid up,' he added. He intends to spend most of the money on buying a home, which will enable him to move out of his parents' house.
Saracens are understood to have paid an insurance premium of about [pounds sterling]10,000 in case one of the three contestants chosen hit the jackpot -- so the insurers will have to pick up the bulk of the bill.
