They give an example of a bet placed as part of the "fund" as laying Sunderland away to Everton for £1,000 which won a total of £528. The alarm bells should have been ringing at that stage that they weren't playing with much of a bank surely.

Aren't there loads of companies that do this? Smartodds bet clients' money on football matches, as well as other services, and they're not doing too badly as their owner owns Brentford FC.
