......i accidently placed a £2 quid bet in the next man utd managers market instead of the next newcastle managers market (as they didnt have a manger at the time), but what i cant get my head around is why someone would want to tie up £100 quid for the sake of £2 quid for 6 years and counting?!?!? you'd of got more than 2 quid back on the sh!t rate of interest at banks????

someone is hardly going to have a single £7k liabilty lay of David O'leary as their only bet in the market and then wait years for the 7 quid profit
They may have had hundreds of bets , and been all green since 2003 , just continue trading to increase their green figures on the more likely winners. People who play long term markets seriously will have maybe 50 on the go at any one time, with markets that have lasted months being settled and new ones starting, so it's not like they go years without getting paid. |

Ive been traded this market for years. My book is green overall. When new runners are added i usually lay them if the price is right. I am not tying up any funds by doing this.
