Paddy Power think so......

BOOKIE PAYS OUT ON UNITED TREBLE
Sky Bet's Odds Compare All Prices

Paddy Power is paying out on Manchester United as winners of the Premier League, FA Cup and Carling Cup - the first time any bookie has paid out early on a team winning more than one trophy in a season.


With United's goal impregnable in their last 14 league games and Arsene Wenger's admission that the champions are 'untouchable' Paddy Power is not only declaring the title race over but all domestic trophies for this season.


The bookie will pay out on all bets on United winning the three domestic trophies as well as any bets on the domestic doubles and the treble.

United are already just 1/6 to retain their title, 2/5 for the Carling Cup and 7/4 for the FA Cup, with Paddy Power looking at an early payout of over £1 million.


Paddy Power, head of communications for the bookie, said: "We know and punters know the race for trophies is all but over for another year so why wait for the formalities?

"If none of the opposition are able to even score a goal against United what chance have they got of actually beating them to silverware? We just hope someone can do us a favour and stop them in Europe.


"However, paying out on all three is a gamble. Football has a way of biting teams on the backside when they least expect it so we could yet end up with egg on our faces and not for the first time.


"Paddy Power are famous for being the first to call title races over, even paying out on Chelsea after just seven games of the 2005/06 season. But we haven't always got it right, famously paying out on Arsenal in the 2002/2003 season only to have to pay out again when Manchester United pipped them to the title."


Paddy Power are also waiting on the outcome of this season's relegation fight having paid out on Stoke, currently 2/1 on for the drop, after their loss on the first day of the season.

its just a calculated marketing ploy it means nothing in footballing terms, I hope theyre wrong however

The bizarre thing is Utd could end up with the title this season and nothing else and it would seem like a complete failure after the way this teams has been hyped out of all proportion
 
Stupid Irish Cunts.

I do realise its a marketing ploy, but I'd love Spurs to beat them in 2 weeks and fuck them up at the first hurdle.

Are they just stupid cunts. Or stupid cunts because they are Irish?
 
The free advertising would more than cover their losses on this bet..... i mean how many people have laid serious money on the domestic treble? More people would have included the CL in their acca.

And a man called Paddy Power? If he has changed his name to that because of his employers, then what a cunt.
Even fat barry would never dream of changing his name to Cillit BANG.

Stupid bloody paddypower. I've never known a bookie that WANTS to give away money.

I always assumed he started the company, but he doesn't seem to be in charge now. Paddy Power probably isn't a particularly uncommon name though.

I have to admit I have never understood why bookies pay out early. What's the benefit to them?

Obviously I was jesting.

Considering i've had an Irishman stay in my house twice in the last 3 wks, i'd say theres a fair chance I dont mind you lot.
 
Since 1999, mid February is when the M.E.N always spend a week declaring that the current Salford team is their best ever, and they will win every trophy remaining.

It is an annual event, and they have yet to be correct.

Didn't your mum tell me you lot were borne out of Irish roots too? Some Paddy ancestors down the line somewhere?
 
I think she just wanted you to believe that, she thought you may have slipped between the sheets with her then. Like Rosco does when he comes over to stay.

I don't know shit about betting.....


But why the hell would a bookie pay out before something has been finished?


What's the benefits for the bookie?


Expert opinion please....
 
Man Utd - Domestic Treble

I heard on the Radio the other day that bookies were paying out on them winning a domestic treble already!?!?

Is it really that foregone a conclusion or was this yet more sensationalist, untrue fawning towards the self-styled "bestest side in world for ever and ever"?
 
Re: Man Utd - Domestic Treble

that cant be true. Theres no certainty they will win the fa cup. Made up shit mate. Have a good trip btw.
 
Re: Man Utd - Domestic Treble

Paddy Power is paying out on this, in a usual attention grabbing way. Paying out on this and the resultant headlines is cheaper than paying for advertising.

Cheers mate, fly out at 3pm odd. A few days of paella and then footie and San Miguel / Cruzcampo in Madrid. It'll be heaven. I may even catch a bit of a tan as the weather in the south is pretty good.

Maybe not, but the bitterness from them towards the English is there for all to see...
