Laurie’s right basically. Its a ridiculously see-through move to get them a few press pages.

Probably should have known about the “official betting partner” thing. Mea culpa, my bad, apologies.

But my point is simply that there are business reasons to do this, and Paddy Power is has canny business acumen. They will gain from this in the long run.

Why dont you, Daryl and Chris open up a Paddy Power account and considering THE OFFSIDE is well known as a hater of Chelsea FC, you might win a few bucks or get refunds.. SIMPLES

Wow. I hardly ever get accused of biases I don’t have! It’s usually just Chris and Daryl*. I feel like such a member of the club now! :-D

*Although technically Chris is mostly accused of biases he DOES have. Like, y’know, CR7. It’s Daryl who usually gets accused of biases he doesn’t have.

But the thought still holds.

Nice little dig at Chelsea and Paddy Power Laurie…. but what you have failed to research is that Paddy Power is the official betting partner of Chelsea Football Club and there has been a season long competition between Paddy Power and Chelsea legend Kerry Dixon (who!!! I hear you ask) on all Chelsea’s results this season. Check out chelseafc.com to get more info.
