Online Bookie Refunds fans
7th May, 2009
With Chelsea fans across the UK and Europe still upset after watching their team crash out of the UEFA Champions League, online bookie Paddy Power has decided to come to their aid with a special refund.
The controversial decisions of referee Tom Henning Ovrebo in last’s nights Champions League semi final second leg between Chelsea and Barcelona, has lead to the Blues being knocked out of the competition.
Many believed the Stamford Bridge club was cheated out of a place in the final, so Paddy Power has opted to refund punters who placed bets on Chelsea to win.
According to a statement on the Irish bookmaker’s website this morning, they claim the referee clearly bent the rules, so they are going to follow suit.
The statement read, “We’re guessing most Chelsea fans are about as happy about last night’s goings on as Didier “IT’S A F**KING DISGRACE” Drogba. So we’re refunding all bets on Chelsea to win last night’s match and reach the final of the Champions League!”
In their effort to meet customer demands, Paddy Power are also giving users the opportunity to vote on what they would like other money-back specials to be on forth –coming football matches.
