Celebrity bookie pays out fans who backed Man Utd for title: You deserve better

Celebrity bookie and Manchester United fan Fred Done has given back gamblers' money for anyone who backed the club for the title this season.

The Salford bookie is giving anyone who bet on United winning the title their money back, at a cost of £200,000.

Done told the Manchester Evening News: "These loyal fans never had a chance of winning with United. This season the Reds have been useless, hopeless and meaningless.

"Anyone who has a bet on United winning the title need only take their slip to any shop and I will refund every penny.

"One of the reasons I'm doing this is, and becoming the first bookmaker ever to do so, is because of the way the fans were still singing for their team even though we were losing 3-0 to Liverpool. I couldn't believe it and they deserve a team much better than that put out by David Moyes."
