How to spot a tooler

Was in a local last night and was waiting for the match to start. Got myself a pint and threw £5 in a machine and put my pint and my book next to the machine. Left two quid in and went toilet. Was only gone 2 minutes and when I returned some idiot had jumped on my machine. I went over and said “sorry mate but im on that had left £2 in and just nipped the loo” The idiot then replied “Who the f**k are you?” “F**k off weirdo and leave me alone before I make you go. He tried to tell me that he’d been on it for a good 10 minutes which I told him wasn’t true. I insisted that he gave me my £2 back and then got my stuff and left him to it. Played another machine and watched him and his mates. He kept giving me daggers but him and his 2 mates where looking well shifty and surrounding the machine blocking the view from everyone. Told the bar manager to watch them after all he had seen the knob threaten me. He cased them out and then they stopped playing it and sat down. They sat right by me and watched me like a hawk. As soon as they saw me collect £18 from the bank they left the pub.

F**king idiots. Should have given them a piece of my mind but they looked well rough and just wanted to watch my team play and enjoy the night.

Do you think they where toolers? Just wondered by the shifty way they played the machine. Or where they just keying it or doing a bad job of hiding their actions?

I don't really know how a toller works but do they get the cash box or the notey?

Ha ha very funny :)

Wished the bar manager had done more and wished the barstools had been caught in the act. Little pricks.

He looked quite hard himself, bit like Phil Mitchell but he just wasn't wanting to cause a scene in his pub.

Well of course if wasn't gonna do more. I mean, they were only thieving from the fruit machine. Nothing really bad like maybe putting money in and winning it fairly. A I said before, ordinary players get more trouble than the toolers.

Oh for the love of god....


No, No, No..... No.


I'd say its very unlikely they were toolers. Potentially from the sounds of things, not even players, but just 3 chavs that have gone into a bar for a drink and spotted some free credits and one thing led to another.

But you have done the ALL TIME CLASSIC. Because you think 'someones looking shifty', you've gone to the bar manager and told him they are upto something and keep an eye out and so forth. Many a bar has received broken glasses and damaged furniture for similar ludicrous and slanderous acusations.


I really hope that you get 100+ into a red gaming and get thrown out because someone has felt that you were being dodgy.


You (and I dont mean to be insulting here before I get repremanded yet again), are the typical bar idiot. You dont know what a tooler does, acts, or even looks like; therefore presume any non-regular that walks onto a fruit machine and doesnt leave it after playing a maximum of 3 boards MUST be one of these 'toolers' that they keep hearing about on the internet.

. . . And you are the typical "I think I'm better than you lot" muppet who probably has no money cos it's either gone in a touch screen 'rou, or you've gone up the cas and done what all idiots do and spun up at a grand a go.

Whats the point of that post? Has fck all to do with tooling.


At least I can afford to do a grand a spin anyway. You've probably never even had 10 grand in your bank account at any one time in your life, let alone blown 25 grand in a night (cash) and gone back the next day with more.

Lol.
