Any word on whether Charlie Vernon was playing?

Dont know but I'd doubt it, Queens are playing in the Sigerson next week.

I heard the u21s were very understrength but that it was quite a hammering ("lucky to score at all").
disappointing to hearas i'd expected a good challenge from armagh this year and i'm not sure how strong queens would be?

Nowhere near as strong as they've been for the past 4 years.

Still not bad though, Queens will give the Sigerson a good rattle again this yea. DCU will win it handy enough though.

Poly will give DCU a right good game if they meet. Shockin tough draw for Jordanstown though.

That is a mix up there. Is there any way if you make that bet that you can click something which guarantees you get those odds?

No, if it's a "Palpable error" then the bookies will change the odds they have given you on your bet.

Obviously one man's palpabe error is different from the next man, but in reality it'll be the bookie's call.

bennydorano · February 07, 2008, 02:29:41 PM

Looks like an error to me as well, but UCD and DCU both have relatively kind draws up to the semi, maybe that's the factor??

armaghniac · February 07, 2008, 02:35:41 PM

Bookies have a nice arrangement where if you make a mistake all bets are final, but if they make a mistake to their disadvantage then they just cancel it without explanation. Charming people.

corn02 · February 07, 2008, 02:43:45 PM

So even if the bet is processed at 7/1 it will probably not count?

armaghniac · February 07, 2008, 03:06:31 PM

They can only clap a palpable error if it is totally out of line with other bookies, if someone else is giving 5/1 for DCU then 7/1 is not ridiculous.

Had a palpable mistake once online with a bookie. They paid me out on a footy accum when one of the teams had been beaten. I noticed it that night of the game and took the money out straight away so as it would be into my bank account and they couldn't access this without my permission. Two days later i got an email saying they had made the mistake but i could keep the money (it was brazillian football) I thought this was a decent enough deal and i have been there ever since.
