Racing Santander

what reason ?

What's happened??

lol wtf was that all about?

players said they would strike if the head of the club didnt resign, they didnt, so they refused to play. I think

players not been paid for months, wanted board to resign before tonights match

yea, better get my money back

that was funny

they will refund all bets right?

I think racing refuse to play, so 3-0 standard loss

There is a good idea for the customers on here.

so surely.....sociedad are the winners?

yes, they started the game for 2 minutes to ensure the loss would be.

anyone? will bets get refunded?

For those asking, Racing Santander vs Real Sociedad will be voided as no game has taken place and 90 mins not completed.  from betfair twitter account

I think thats fair.

but in the betfair rules and regs

section 2.3

•If a team or competitor is disqualified, withdraws or forfeits after starting an event they will be deemed a loser providing at least one other team or competitor completes the event. If no team or competitor completes an event (having started) then all bets will be void except for bets on any markets which have been unconditionally determined

so they have COMPLETELY gone against what they say ???

Sociedad didn't complete the event maybe?

sociedad win then, so give me my winnings

well no other competitor or team did 'complete te event' so must be void

but they only went as far as they could - sociedad's game was completed when racing Santander walked off

3-0 layers sweating

meant 0-3

They never walked off tho, they all stood in the middle of the park arms around each other.  Socidad just passed it about in their own half for a bit then the ref blew his whistle and waved all the players off.

first goalscorer?

90 mins were not completed, they will however be settled as winning the "to qualify" market. - off betfair twitter

what a load of twaddle

they qualified....therefore they won the match inside the time played.....however in betfair world that means nothing when it comes to the match odds

To add to the earlier tweet, the game will be voided, but only if it is not played within 3 days, as per our normal 3 day rule.  3 day rule in effect now

what? can someone explain this? will we get our money back yes or no??

match odds

dear god

sociedad have qualified

but betfair are going to hold monies for 3 days in case it is played

can somebody please explain betfair's logic to me

cos I aint seeing it

what!!!! no fkin way!!!

If your not that smart to work it out towny I don't think you should be betting mate

if you back a player to score the first goal and he is taken off after one minute you lose.

hope you are being sarcy blockfire!

or im calling rampton to come collect you

By the sounds of it all markets will be void apart from "to qualify" market which obviously has won because sociedad have gone through.

They might refund you tonight tomorrow or 3 days but you will get your money back

Only kidding my friend

unbelievable though, surely the right thing to do is refund straight away,

Its because it was actually abandoned by the ref so time restrictions are in place.. If the game never started then you would have a refund straight away.. I.e postponement

I had this game in a goals multiple and it's been settled, minus this result obviously....

Maybe the money will be put in cold storage until the game is played.

fuuuck santander... need a refund asap

oh well, actually probably saved me from losing it lol

I had sterling on sociedad....but tbh im not bothered whether they pay out on the win (obv would be nice :D ) - just want my £ back

their 3 day rule can fully do one

54 posts so far,had the game gone ahead you would not get that many posts for the whole game.

Sociedad started well though to be fair so Santander backers have got away with one imo

:D tis the only game going tonight so don't be so pessimistic ;p

just shows you, man if I ever start winning on here im not keeping a lot in the account, heard some horror stories about them keeping monies

Compound interest on this one

I think gambling is seen as a 'gentleman's agreement' by the law on these shores so you have very limited comeback if betfair did go balls up. Not that I think that will happen anytime soon

ye definately

Voiding bets now as its be confirmed it wont be played in 3 days

yea, surely we get interest on withheld monies ?

I love how the keeper stayed in goal just in case sociedad still went for it

interest on 32 mins?

Betfair Helpdesk ‏@BetfairHelpdesk 1m

Our official sources have confirmed that the game will not be played within 3 days. We are in the process of voiding bets now.

there you go we should all get our money back

They should have lined up like they did and as soon as Sociedad hit a loose pass charge at them like a scene from braveheart and bang 1-0

ok quick lets all lay watford with our refunded monies

woooohoooo monies back in

gtfi i feel like i have just won

dont go spending all that 2 quid all at once

£2:39 actually

What happens if Forrest and sociadad double?
