United fan gets City badge TATTOOED on his BUM after losing drunken bet

A Manchester United fan has had Man City's TATTOOED on his BUM after losing a drunken bet. Red Cameron Davis, 23, and his Blue pal Callum Taylor, 26, felt like a flutter as the recent all-Mancunian FA Cup final drew close.

Instead of each sticking on a tenner, they upped the ante in quite spectacular fashion - agreeing that the loser would get a tattoo of the opposition's badge on their bottom.

As we now know, United lost 2-1 to Pep Guardiola's side. That meant Cameron, from Salford, had no choice but to stay true to his word. Callum, from Denton, Tameside, did - in fairness - pay for his buddy to get inked.

The chef pals met at work and love the footy banter they share. "We were out one night," Cameron said.

"We hadn't seen each other for a while, so we met up for a few drinks. We'd just found that United and City were going to be in the FA Cup final. We got a bit drunk and at first, the bet was that the loser had to wear the other person's shirt for a day.

"But as we got a bit more drunk, we kept giving each other a bit of s*** and it turned into a tattoo on the other person's a*** cheek. We sealed it with a handshake.

"It was in front a lot of people, so I couldn't really get away with it. I was surrounded by City fans and I was giving it the biggun'."

The pair watched the match in separate pubs. Cameron said he knew his fate was sealed seconds after the match started as City's Ilkay Gundogan scored the fastest-ever goal in an FA Cup final.

"A lot of people knew about the bet because I'd put it on my Instagram story," he added. "Everyone I was with in the United pub knew about it. I kind of hoped people would forget about it.

"But Callum rang me a couple of hours after and just started laughing down the phone."

The self-employed cooks are currently working together at a hotel in Skipton, Yorkshire. They stumbled across a tattoo parlour in the town centre this week, where Cameron spent 25 minutes in the tattooist's chair.

Callum stumped up the £80. "I keep forgetting I've got it done until I sit down," Cameron added. "I plan on getting it covered up."

Callum said: "It all worked out perfectly. The pub I was in was rocking and at the final whistle, obviously, I was ecstatic, but I was also relieved more than anything.

"We laughed about it all day yesterday at work. I'm delighted it's worked in my favour, but 100 per cent respect for him going through with it."
