    I remember a bloke going into a bookies claiming a win on a standard 90 mins acca, because one team (who let him down) conceded a goal in the 3rd minute of stoppage, but the result was right when 90 Mins was on the clock.

    To be honest I’ve seen that myself on more than one occasion, you do have to worry about some people. I actually saw one lad in a paddy power shop the other day arguing over he had 18/1 on Salah to score anytime in the Liverpool Newcastle game on Stephens Day and he was convinced he was right. I do feel sorry for betting shop staff they put up with all sorts of idiots

    I think that 18/1 was Salah to score, Liverpool to win and both teams to score BOTH halves!

    And that was a special! Ha!

    AFAIK Salah does be at the most 2/1 to score in any game, but any team outside the "top 5" other teams and he is odds on at this stage!

    That’s it Salah scored 40 odd goals last season and has been banging them in lately and you have someone thinking he’s 18/1 to score anytime against an awful Newcastle side. Like instead of arguing would he not sit down and have a word with himself that if Salah is 18/1 that means if Liverpool played Newcastle 19 times Salah would only have to score once in those 19 games and he’d break even.

    I actually regret now not giving him a little slap for stupidity.

    All footie bets are normal time only whether that is 90, 91, 98 mins etc.
    It's the usual chancers trying to get paid especially when they see young staff working who mightn't know the difference,

    What really annoys me is when online companies, doing BIR updates and they put 46 mins as the time of the game when it's actually 45+1.
    2nd half starts at 46 so anything still in 1st half should always be 45+ x.

    Presumedly it was a while after the race before the weight difference was noticed hence OP's friends got paid out. What happens with online accounts in this scenario? Presumedly they would have already paid out before the weigh in? Would they take the money back? What if you'd already withdrawn the funds from your account? Likewise if you had bet on the exchanges?

    Your account would go to minus whatever your winnings were if they didn’t manage to reverse the withdrawal.

    If you put the balance on another bet (ideally 1/100 or something shorter) then there's nothing they can do fwiw
