Bit of a novice here. Gone for a treble today but one of the games was at Glebe Park. Match now off. What happens? Does it convert to a double or will the bet only be complete when the original fixture eventually gets played? I'm thinking the latter.

Just a double I think.

Anyone else noticed anything weird going on at PaddyPower?

Just logged on expecting a balance of about 2 quid. I had £19.58.

I'd noticed yesterday that they paid out on a corner bet that didn't come in. I had under ten and exactly ten. There were 9, but they'd paid on 10. By the time it was corrected, I'd reinvested onto a fourfold. So I got the money for under 10 as well. My 4fold was let down by PSG, but again they've paid out.

I've withdrawn £15 will see if it makes it. But very very strange. Actual 'free money' :D

I'm going to stick a tenner in roulette but I've no idea how to go about it. I normally just stick a couple of quid in and scatter on the 5 numbers I always place (0, 5, 11, 29, 35) and anything else on red or black. Am I best just to repeat this a couple of times or fire it all on red/black or whatever? £10 is all I'm going to use.

I'm looking at putting an over 2.5 goal accumulator with Sky Bet on todays games and noticed, while most of the selections say 'over 2.5', the Bayern Munich game says 'over (+2.5)'. Pardon my igonrance but what's the difference?

Nothing, the brackets are just to indicate what market it is, as opposed to over (+1.5) or over (+3.5).

I've got a free bet from Ladbrokes (which shows in the 'my account' section of my account), but I'm on my phone, how do I allocate (for want of a better word) the free bet to the selection I've made?

Either the option isn't there (perhaps an issue with it on the mobile) or, more likely, I'm being a moron and can't see it.

Any help appreciated.

What is the best company to open an online account with? Who has the best offers on free bets etc.

Just don't if you think you might get carried away when you're a bit pished. Much better to have to walk through the rain to the bookies to check if it's a bet you really want to make.

Sorted. I had to make my selection and then make the bet first, and at the 'select your stake' stage, the option was there to use my free bet.

I need to take a betfair holiday, as I will not be around from 13th - 19th May.

In my betfair account the dates listed are;

6th May 2013

13th May 2013

20th May 2013

27th May 2013 etc

Which week should I book as a holiday? There is nothing to say whether those dates are week ending or week commencing dates.

The dates you give are the start date of the week in which you wont earn or lose any comission. In your case you want to take the holiday on the 13th. Note the dates all start on a Monday as comission is taken on the Sunday at the end of the week.

Can anyone advise the best place to obtain match stats (football) for the English and Scottish lower leagues? I usually use Soccerbase but don't think they have what im looking for here.
