Thanks for the heads up LeTiss but that's what I was concerned about so didn't place it

Lets hope they let you keep the 5/6 :)

so they were 4/5 about a 2/5 chance , and only smallish liability for them, not as though you have vaked a 6/4 at 16-1 is it :?

Couldn't be further from the truth, I'm afraid. All bookies have a catch-all get out of jail rule of "clearly" mistakenly priced bets are void. They could come back after the result is in and say the price of 1.83 was typed in wrong, should have been 1.23, and is void. With feck all you can do about it.

They do it all the time.

We're often in the game of shaving a few seonds off the live feed, so my 'news' felt like I'd sent it by carrier pidgeon. ;)

What do you think it'll do to Soton's chances? I assume plenty will go with the 'new manager will turn it round' theory but as it usually pays to oppose what joe public assumes that seems too straightforward. How do the stats look for teams that change their boss?

Not too shabby 8-)

Only saw the headline, but apparently Ronaldo and Messi weren't there for the ceremony, making it a gimme that it would be Modric. If some people found out about those no-shows before BF, that's likely what created the spot.
