A couple of things

The used to suspend by now, collation is over. Just don't care anymore

Also you'll have noticed they added ladbaby twice. Which presumably means they'll try to settle one of these as a loser if it's No1

Neglect!

Hopefully it won`t be voided as it was a few years ago (maybe during your hiatus from the forum?), when Mister G, Mister N and Mister T, (forever infamously known as Messrs G`n`T), tried to get clever but got caught on the wrong side of the accreditation ruling, went whinging and cwying to bf. Be aware, Messrs G`n`T, such scandalous low-life cheating has left you forever sullied. And justifiably so.

2017, Ed Sheeran`s the likely winner, but he then releases a duet (of the same song), with Beyonce. Beautiful volatile confusion reigns, with G`n`T smugly taking to the internet to mock the `stupid` punters who were backing Ed as sole accreditation, only for them to be (again!) exposed as the stupid ones when it became clear that bf would be accrediting it to Ed alone; cue the scweaming and scweaming to bf from the three charlatans, with bf caving and appeasing The Treacherous Three, voiding the market and not even loading a new one
.
I started a thread calling the three out, naming them, they had it deleted within minutes, and a quick look just now failed to find the main thread from that year, so presumably deleted as well.

Betfair Help
@BetfairCS
PLEASE NOTE – In light of recent events, The Betfair Exchange team have decided to void the Xmas Number 1 market in its entirety due to uncertainty about the potential result as the market has been manipulated unfairly and is now malformed.

My block letters, but wtf? What does `manipulated unfairly and is now malformed` even mean? And how can that be applied to an open trading market?

Hey guys, I was gonna start a post about this but figured no one was interested in this market lol

Ladbaby were backed all the way down to 1.01 three hours before the winner was revealed, even bookmakers had them at 1/7 so makes no sense why someone would accept lower than that. And sidemen went from 7 out to 200 , only a insane person would risk £4000 to make £20 on what appeared to be a coin flip, definitely could be insiders involved


luckily I took a screenshot

Hello Brushy Cool

Two things to note about this.

Since the 'pro punters' got themselves horrendously on the wrong end of a wise guy trade (they thought), and managed somehow to convince betfair to zap the entire market and save said 'pro punter' butts, betfair subsequently tightened up the market rules. The same thing happened last year, lots of people were on the wrong end of it again, but betfair settled correctly on that occasion, instead of bailing their chums out. Not many people backed the effective non runner this year, but still over 1K matched.

The second point to note is that the result is known and published to industry insiders halfway through the day (Friday), but is embargoed. So some lovely people are betting on a result that is already known to them, and they literally can't lose.

In the good old days they used to suspend when collation was over super sniper, why they don't anymore is just laziness.

Thanks for explaining Tim and apples (the real apples).  You'd think then bf would be more aware of introducing rogue elements into their markets, very slack

OTOH used to get the result before it was public back in the day. The odd online book used to keep trading after the sales cut off, and still do in fact, but betfair always used to close the market at midnight. Until the last couple of years. Presumably it's down to a lack of knowledge, rather than trying to squeeze a extra few quid in commission.

Yes last year's desperation was impossibly transparent and desperate. Quite obvious to most people that they were simply hijacking good causes to pump their own exposure.

Those grifting twats have Christmas number 1 worked out, from preorders to releasing multiple versions, then becoming complete begs every 12 hours, I’ve seen some people pushing AC/DC for Christmas number 1 but it’s not even listed as an option yet, probs safer just to lay Ladbaby

Ladbaby have pulled out of this year’s Christmas number 1

Probably due to all the backlash they got last year, looks like it’s wide open for anyone now

I saw that cider but I just wanted
to type the kunts on the forum

I saw a photo of Shane from pogues and
he looked very poorly, so hopefully it
gets to number one to give him a lift.

It's quite unlikely even if he does die, in my view. Looking at an awful lot of things to coincide, which makes 50% seem very ambitious indeed. Even for me, it's dark enough to hope that somebody passes at the right time to land a bet.

Shane has reportedly been discharged from hospital.

Taking to social media, journalist Victoria shared a picture of Shane and wrote: ‘Shane got out of the hospital! We are deeply and eternally grateful to all of the doctors and nurses and staff at St Vincent’s it’s the best ! And special thanks to Tom Creagh and Brian Corscadden for your help.’

It's a weird market. Of course, it's always weird to some extent but ladbaby is the only artist that has sold digital downloads in significant enough numbers for years. I don't see this changing. It will be won on streaming. Only the perennial anti Tory loser, but there is even less fun in clean versions. And it is easy to adapt a position on that should he by some miracle sell in some numbers.

Sidemen with their monumental profile and following, hammering it hard managed to sell less than 22K digital sales last year. Just a window into how that particular medium has collapsed.
