Ireland’s premier bookmaker Paddy Power enlisted the help of Kilkenny hurling legend D.J. Carey at Croke Park today to launch their Money-Back Special for Sunday’s All Ireland Hurling Final in which they pledge to refund a wide range of losing bets on the match if Kilkenny are beaten.

The bookie is so sure of the Cats making it five All Ireland wins in a row that they are risking a potential five figure refund should the Premier County reverse the form book on Sunday. Kilkenny remain the 4/11 hot favourites ahead of the final with Tipperary currently at odds of 5/2.

D.J. Carey said “This Kilkenny squad is the strongest team of hurlers I’ve ever seen, they are truly a force to be reckoned with. I think Paddy’s money will be safe come Sunday!” (more…)

Mick O’Dwyer has emerged as Paddy Power’s favourite to take over the vacant Mayo manager job.

The most famous man in GAA is being quoted at 8/11 as the five man shortlist has been made public. O’Dwyer’s record is second to none with every team he has managed over achieving.

John Maughan has led Mayo to three All Ireland finals and is second favourite at 9/4 to take on the job for a third time.

The other three candidates are considered outsiders by the bookie at this stage with James Horan priced at 9/2, Denis Kearney at 5/1 and Anthony McGarry the least likely of the lot at 12/1. (more…)

Kilkenny, widely regarded as the greatest team of all time are now as short as 1/6 with Paddy Power to win the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship.

The Cats are just one game away from a historic fifth All-Ireland title in a row but Paddy Power are betting it’s only the beginning for the impressive side. It’s odds on at 4/5 that Kilkenny will win six championships in a row, 7/4 they go on to win seven, 4/1 they rake in eight and 7/1 they hold on for nine consecutive Liam McCarthy cups!

Sharon McHugh, spokesperson for Paddy Power, said: “Kilkenny at the moment look unstoppable and with their minor team looking so good on Sunday it looks like their position at the top of Hurling’s elite looks likely to continue for the next few years. They could end up not alone winning 5 in a row but possibly even 9 in a row!”

It’s looking like Kilkenny will face Tipperary in the final. The Premier County are the 4/11 favourites to win this weekend’s semi final while Waterford are the underdogs at 5/2. The odds on the two sides drawing are 11/1. (more…)

Leading bookie Paddy Power are refunding over €25,000 to Louth backers after a controversial last second goal literally handed victory to Meath in the Leinster Final in Croke Park.

All bets placed on Louth winning the encounter, including in-running bets, have been refunded to hard done by punters.

Paddy Power said “That was one of the most ridiculous decisions I have ever seen in any GAA match and we have absolutely no hesitation refunding bets on Louth. It’s the only right thing to do in the circumstance”

Paddy Power plc today announced the appointment of Paddy the Psychic Octopus to their senior management team.

Paddy is a first cousin of Paul Oktopus who recently shot to international fame when he correctly predicted all of Germany’s World Cup results. Paddy will be responsible for predicting the outcome of major sporting events for the bookmaking chain from his office at the National Sea Life Centre in Bray, Co Wicklow.

Paddy is expected to arrive in Ireland before the end of July and will undergo a period of “psychic tuning” before being beginning his role with Paddy Power.  It is hoped that Paddy’s first predictions will be around the forthcoming GAA All Ireland Finals and Ryder Cup.

Pat Ó Súilleabháin, director of the National Sea Life Centre in Bray said “We’ve had our eye on Paddy for some time now and we’re delighted that he’ll soon be joining us in Bray. As a full cousin to Paul he has already exhibited an exciting degree of psychic awareness and we’re confident that we can develop his ability to a level similar, of perhaps even greater, than his cousin”

Paddy Power said “Paul the Psychic Octopus cost us a king’s ransom during the World Cup so it really was a no-brainer to get Paddy on the payroll”

To celebrate Paddy’s imminent arrival, top tailor Louis Copeland created a one-off 8-tentacled sweater for Paddy the octopus who is used to the warmer waters of his native Mediterranean.

Louis Copeland said “I’ve fitted out everyone from Bill Clinton and Pierce Brosnan to Ronan Keating and Bertie Ahern but Paddy the Psychic Octopus is the icing on the cake.  The eight tentacled design presented a unique challenge but I’m very happy with the final product”

Paddy the Psychic Octopus will be on public display in the National Sea Life Centre in Bray, Co Dublin from September and his sports predictions will be webcast live from the Paddy Power website.

Bookies Paddy Power have kindly offered to sponsor a new holy JOHN 3:7 banner to GAA fanatic Frank Hogan. The Tipperary native has been appealing for information about his biblical banner after it was stolen from a train carriage last Sunday evening, allegedly by Kildare fans.

A man of deep faith, Frank Hogan is regularly sighted criss-crossing the country to attend GAA matches with his sign in tow. This is the second time his biblical billboard has gone missing. It was flung from a train window a few year’s ago but later recovered.

Bookies Paddy Power are not only offering Mr Hogan a brand new sign, they’re also offering betting on where Frank’s JOHN 3:7 banner turns up. It’s 5/4 that it shows up at Croker on Sunday, 6/4 it arrives at Kildare Garda station and 20/1 it lands beside the holy tree stump in Rathkeale. The odds on the sign making a front row appearance at next years Oxegen music festival is 33/1 while it’s an unlikely 250/1 that it travels all the way to The Vatican.

Sharon McHugh, spokesperson for Paddy Power himself said: “A match in Croker just wouldn’t be the same without the JOHN 3:7 sign behind the goal on Hill 16 and we’re more than happy to pitch in and help Frank produce a new sign in time for throw in on Sunday!” (more…)

Kildare are Paddy Power’s 4/5 favourites to beat Down in Sunday’s All Ireland semi final at Croke Park.

The strong finishing Lillywhites have been heavily backed by punters with Down friendless in the betting market and on the drift out to 11/8.

Injury worries for both teams will have both Kieran McGeeney and James McCartan chewing their fingernails but punters clearly think that Kildare are better placed to do without Dermot Early than Down are to do without Ambrose Rodgers.

Whichever team wins on Sunday will be outsider in the final with Cork a red hot 2/5 for top honours.

Paddy Power said, “If we get half the drama we got last week we’re in for a thriller, and with Kildare’s habit of coming from behind it could be on the cards. Punters have piled into the Lillywhites, poor old Down haven’t had a look in”. (more…)

Ireland’s top bookie Paddy Power have reported record levels of betting ahead of Sunday’s All Ireland Football semi-final between Cork and Dublin.

Over €500,000 has already been staked on the eagerly anticipated tie making it the highest turnover championship fixture of the season and with three days left to go until throw-in Paddy Power are predicting that over €1,000,000 will be wagered on the game.

Cork are currently the 4/6 favourites however a late surge of support for Dublin has Paddy Power on red alert and the 13/8 available on the Dubs looks like the value bet of the week.

Paddy Power said “There’s no doubt about it, punters are rolling up their sleeves and betting like men. We’ve seen big money coming for the Dubs over the past 24-hours and I’m fairly certain that the 13/8 on Dublin won’t be hanging around too long”

Paddy Power are also taking bets on the total points tally of the Brogan brothers during Sunday’s game with 11/10 available on Alan and Bernard scoring ten or more points between them. (more…)

Kilkenny look unstoppable in their relentless quest for a historic five All Irelands in a row. The Cats are odds on 2/5 favourites with Paddy Power to lift the Liam McCarthy and an almost unbackable 1/7 to beat Cork on Sunday.

The Rebels will relish the underdogs tag and their fans are never shy about getting behind their team, many will find the 5/1 on offer for a Cork victory too attractive to miss, if not downright insulting!

Neutrals will be speculating not on who will win, but on by how much Kilkenny will win by. The Cats are 10/11 giving Cork an 8 point head start and 7/2 to win by between 7 and 9 points.

It should be a relatively free scoring encounter and it’s just 5/1 that the Croke Park faithful get to witness 6 or more goals in the game.

Paddy Power said, “We were reminded last weekend that there’s no such thing a certainty in sport, but it’s almost impossible to see beyond Kilkenny. That wont put off the Rebel punters though, they’ll never let Cork win at 5/1 without getting a piece of that action!” (more…)
