"The Salford", a betting company operating in Manchester, decided to take an unusual step - to refund money to "Manchester United" fans who expected their team to win the Premier League for the second consecutive year. With 9 rounds left until the end of the season, the club is only in 7th place.
The company's owner Fred Done became famous last season when he distributed winnings to "Manchester United" fans before the season ended. This year, the millionaire decided to pity the fans who had too high hopes.
Such generosity from the owner will cost the company 200,000 pounds. However, according to F. Done, the fans of the Red Devils were robbed this season: "There was no hope this season that the club could win. The players were miserable and hopeless. Anyone who bet that "Manchester United" could win the Premier League can come and get their money back. The loyalty of the fans amazed me during the match against Liverpool. The team was losing 0-3, but the fans were still singing. Such fans deserve a better team than the one currently led by David Moyes. The fans were robbed this season."
The owner of the betting company has been a fan of "Manchester United" for a long time, but this season he cannot believe the club's decline: "People still say they are the best team in the world, but it's not true. They are not even the best in Manchester, and it breaks my heart to say that."
