Bookmaker Coral has been forced to cut the odds on next year's FA Cup Final not being held at the new Wembley Stadium to 6-5 (from 6-4) after punters rushed to back that outcome.
November 11, 2005 (Press Release) --
The gamble followed comments from the Wembley Chief Michael Cunnagh that he could not guarantee the work will be finished on time.
"It seems that punters have very little faith in the Wembley builders, and if this gamble is correct, football fans will be making the trip down to Cardiff once more next May," said Coral spokesman David Stevens.
Coral bookmakers now offer odds of 8-13, (from 1-2), that next year's F.A. Cup Final will be held at Wembley
