The people who had pre match bets on this will be stung badly when this match is played on Tuesday for the following reasons:

1. The match is now a dead rubber.
2. The match is played 4 days before a Cup Final.
3. The Man Utd team will be all reserves playing.

Surely all these bets placed are voided and the markets reloaded in these circumstances.

Maybe the same squad needs to be used , highly unlikely though as they could just say they are injured and wouldn't try as hard anyway.Bets should be void
Report donny osmond May 15, 2016 11:29 PM BST
i think you should be right, but rules prevent it, and betfair would get slaughtered

but time to remove the stupid rule, match not played on stated date

void it in future

we are told it takes 10 days to re arrange a league game, obviously bollox, innit

For every person on the wrong side of it, there's someone on the right side of it.

1. Is it?  Man United need a point for 5th, don't they?
2. So?
3. Will it?  How do you know?

Surely they're not, as per the rules.

I don't necessarily disagree that the circumstances of the match are now dramatically different, and I feel for the backers of the 1.4ish prices in light of this, but - as usual - you make your point poorly and your love of the sound of your own voice means you don't really address the issue.

I have no bet on this Man Utd match but it could easily be any of us stung on any match in the future if this rule is strictly applied in these circumstances.

You have cracked it Donny - if not played on the same date then void it.

Common sense should prevail, all bets should be voided and markets reloaded.

Purple's rule is 36 hours so bets are void on there.

I have got money tied up on this match,would I have placed the same bet 4 days before a final,NO.
Report jimmy the turf May 16, 2016 1:53 AM BST
was hopping it would go beyond the 3 days too, I had man unt, man city, wind double on the sun acca, so cant complain, but I do feel those who had accumulators and singles going on to man unt have got a raw deal..... Hope they win for you who are waiting on them... Good luck..

This is utter rubbish. I had a sizeable bet at 1.41 as they had to win to stand a chance of top 4. The situation surrounding the match has changed completely now they are pretty much dead for champions league and the price has (rightly) moved out to 1.57 - so I'm now stuck with a badly priced bet that I can't really get out of without a 12% ish hit. Utter garbage. Bets should have been voided on previous game and common sense used despite the 3 day rule.

Because some fool came up with a 3 day rule years ago does not make it right in these circumstances.

Betfair did not follow their rules when they voided the infamous horse race. Wink

Common sense should prevail.

im well aware of the voided horse race i had a 16 grand win on it

the rules are clear, there's an exact opposite response on here about someone who had their bet voided by a bookmaker when they would have won

re the idiot, i did wonder why some call you bellender, no need to explain that one i get it

It's possible that I laid some of your bet and I find it hard to disagree with you. 

They can't possibly have a case by case rule; anyone with half a brain can see that, as consistency and having something in black and white to rely upon is of paramount importance.  So what's the solution?  I think that voiding bets for matches that are abandoned without starting is fair enough.  Wouldn't have thought that it would hit the Betfair bottom line too hard and it'd be difficult for anyone to argue that this approach was unfair.

It would seem that the wind, bile and bigotry has been taken out of the wetbender freak's sails.

I am sure he will soon be back trolling 24/7 in the guise of one his other accounts.


Why don't you just ignore him?  I know that it's difficult, given that he seems to have nothing else to do but post utter shyte on here all day, but simply stop responding to him.

At the moment it seems like you're as obsessed with him as he is about you.  At the very least, keep it all to one thread so that anyone wanting to talk about football betting can skip merrily past it.

I'd kinda forgotten about this. Have to say I'm delighted - Man Ure suffer international embarrassment AND their price goes up by 50% after I've laid them at 1.4. Was thinking of greening up but I'd probably have laid them at 1.65 under the circumstances so will just let it ride.
