O/T - Paddy Power have paid out on Man U winning the Premier League

Just seen the money in my account.

Dangerous? Or inevitable?

I used to think they were mental to do this
But very sensible
Good publicity for them and they will almost certainly have your winnings back before the end of the season
Shows how minted bookies are

I've also been paid out by them...no complaints from me!

12 points clear with 12 games to go. Yep, reckon it probably is over.

*awaits bounce of this post and ridicule in May when City win the title

 

[mistahclarke]

yup, not complaining either but seems incredibly early. Seem to remember Celtic pulling back it back from a massive distance behind Rangers once.

Also, did any of the bookies pay out early last year and get stung?

 

[Cheshire Cat]

What happens if they don't win it? Do you have to pay it all back?

Betfred are paying out as well.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Chuck all your winnings on Cardiff winning the Championship, they'll probably pay that one out next week

Baldy Fred paid out early in 1998 when United were 12 points clear and they got done by Arsenal !!

Hope the Paddys suffer the same fate

Its all over

Betfred boss Fred Done has paid out today as well. He has done it three times, the 1998 one as you say, and the last two years. He's only got one right so far, and the two he lost (1998, and last season) cost him a million.

Interested to see Fergie say of Ryan Giggs "he is just a fantastic human being".

Not sure his brother would agree. Eight-year affair with sister-in-law while married, never once visited him in prison...
