30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

She's also quite vehemently anti immigration (with the usual racist Australian undertones that one comes to expect) despite being Welsh.

Can't beat a bit of racism in countries that are non-indigineous, love the great nonsensical arguments they come up with, makes them sound so thick.

| NK have bet on Manchester Utd beating Benfica at 1.45. The minimum bet of 80, I assume (the way things have fallen there is no risk-free, worthwhile increase). That is 9/20.
So it all comes down to Mr van Persie, effectively.
NK lose to 79.1 and win at 195.1.
HU lose at 0 and win at 220.

What happens if its a null bet i.e RvP isn't on the pitch at time of first goal?

As it wouldn't affect the overall result, I'll return your stake. I don't know if a bookmaker would be that generous, but as I say NK would still win.
Even if he was a non-runner, ie not selected, I think you'd possibly lose in real life. If he is subbed on 70 mins and the only goal is scored in the 80th, I'm certain you would.
Can't see him not playing, can you? A defeat leaves them vulnerable.

| Just noticed that Manchester U vs Benfica is today for us, but tomorrow in NSW. Forestalling any honks of disapproval, that is fine. It makes no real difference.

If he doesn't play we would get our stake back.
We could then place a bet in New York where it would still be Wednesday, depending upon the speed of the neutrinos passing down the Ethernet cable, to the router, it may even be Tuesday.

Indeed, it's exactly the same as if your horse is a non runner and if we're allowing for time zones then we still get another pop.
Just to divert any more cheating on the Australians behalf by officialdom.
Other wise we're effectively having to make a bet on whether RvP plays before we even get to have a run for our money.

Would time go backwards if you went faster than light? In which case the neutrinos would start travelling back where they came from and never get where they were going.

Do the odds not take that into account?
Looking at Billy Hill's - you get your stake back for non-runners. So you're either on 0 or 40 if he doesn't play and as the worst NK can do is 79.1, it doesn't matter.
Do you want to change to another 9/2 bet that you're happier with? Bear in mind that if you do this, RvP will score first - Murphy's Law. 2 hours to find one and decide.
Generous to a fault me.
