I heard one of the bookies yesterday on talkshite saying they'd refunded every punter that backed the rags to win the title and were now offering odds of 77/1 if they wanted to re-bet.

I heard that too. It was Betfair I think. When the bookie was told he was mad he said they might be mad but their not stupid, basically saying the world knows the rags have no fucking chance. Unless I misheard it I thought there would be no refunds, just the opportunity to cancel the original bet and re-do it at the higher odds. So another win-win for the bookies.

I think you might have heard it right mate. I was threading my way through Leeds city centre at the time, so I was a trifle distracted. I was just gobsmacked that a bookie would do this, your version makes more sense.
 
There's this plastic rag where I work. Every season we have a bet on United/City finishing higher. He's been on paternity leave for the last seven months (this is Sweden) but he's come back today - an Arsenal fan.
 
Anderson on MUFC: 'I'm sure lots of players want out. Especially people like myself and Nani who have been in Manchester for 7 or 8 years.'

Hahaha, rats abandoning a sinking ship
