Mug Bet Alert

A certain bookmaker has a 'free bet' on tonight's game between Fulham and Manchester United.

Well, they claim it is free.

The offer is this - bet up to £500 on any of the markets available on the bet. If your bet is a loser and Fulham score two goals, you will get the money back as a free bet.

What a pile of rubbish.

Firstly, I cannot see Fulham getting two goals past United.

Secondly, and even more important - if they do happen to score the goals needed to 'win', you're still not getting your money back because the company offering it as a free bet so you cannot withdraw it. You have to bet it again.

With a bit of luck, people will figure out how stupid this offer is. Those who believe in free lunches are ripe for the picking on this one.
