He mentions paying out Half a million! Crazy!
There is a house near me that was completed last year and it is rumoured to be for his daughter (called "Four Stacks")...it is HUGE!, so maybe 1/2 Mill isn't that much to him!!
(think I saw his name in the Times Rich list too>??)

If you think about it Peter, its probably cheap marketing. If it hits the national newspapers, who is everyone going to go and bet their money with next season for the title? Not to mention the rest of their bets because they think Fred is the kindest?

If UTD won, then he would pay out anyway, if they lose he has all the headlines on the back pages, i would imagine
