Luck of the Irish me arse! Not only did FIFA change the rules to protect the big teams, but then we drew France and that dirty little thief Henry cheats us out of a place in the World Cup.

I know its small consolation but we’re refunding €110,000 to all those who backed Ireland to qualify for next years Finals as well as refunding €140,000 on tonights game after we pledged to refund all losing first/last goalscorer, correct score & scorecast bets placed on the match if Ireland won the game in 90-minutes.

For those still interested, the latest odds on that football thing happening in South Africa next June are;
9/2 Spain
5/1 Brazil
6/1 England
9/1 Argentina
11/1 Germany
12/1 Holland
14/1 Italy
16/1 France
18/1 Portugal

More importantly we’re offering odds of 5/1 for a video ref to be introduced in time for World Cup 2018.

I’m off to get sick (again)

No More Turf Luck Stories

Apart from teaching John McCririck that the women’s lib movement happened and you can’t be going around like it’s the 18th century, there are very few things as frustrating as a horse you’ve backed falling.

Your horse is going along nicely - you’re not getting too excited just yet, but it’s going well - and it looks like you’ll have something to scream at down the home straight.
Then BAM! Your horse gets a turf sandwich right in the gob.

Obviously you’re very concerned about the well-being of both horse and jockey, but then the pang of losing kicks in. But wait - you’ve used our Faller Insurance! You’ll be getting your money back. You may not have won the race, but you haven’t lost out either.

That piece of emotional rolling and coasting was brought to you by Faller Insurance. If you take a slightly smaller price, you can watch the race secure in the knowledge that if your horse falls, is brought down or unseats the jockey you’ll get your money back.

We’re giving Faller Insurance its debut for the three days of the Paddy Power Open Meeting and you can check it out under on the All Markets section of our Cheltenham racecards.

As always the comments section is open to heap praise, express your disdain or generally ask any questions about the universe that might be playing upon your mind.

Your New Account Section!!

Taking time out from updating our Facebook pages and Twittering about Star Trek, the Paddy Power Techie Squad have been working around the clock to bring you a brand spanking new ‘My Account’ section. While some people make enhancements and don’t improve – e.g. Katie Price – we think it’s pretty slick and easy to use. We’re still talking about the ‘My Account’ section, right? Right .
 
To quote Tony The Tiger, “It looks grrrrrreeeat”

 
Just in case you’re running late or a lazy git, we’ve developed a quick deposit function while our improved history section will help you remember all your bets, transactions and how World War II started – that’s how good the History section is. If Paddy feels generous or you win a free bet, you can access it quicker and easier than ever before. You also now have your very own Paddy Power inbox – You won’t get any messages from any Nigerian Kings looking for your bank account details, but we will tell you important things like your credit card is about to expire or, more importantly, we love you.


 
Of course, some of you will think it wasn’t broken, why try to fix it. And that’s fair enough, but we have to be seen to be doing some work – just kidding – let us know if you like it or not so Paddy can start writing the P45’s
