PIC: This punter has won big after betting that Leicester City would top the Premier League at Christmas

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. https://twitter.com/Ladbrokes/status/677079378703028225 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. https://twitter.com/WillKirwaan_/status/678258981983404034 Either that or he doesn't fancy getting the drinks in.
