Wigan v Chelsea - no match score!!!
« on: 19 Aug 2012, 13:50 »
Why on earth, is this the only live game today that is not displaying a match score?  It is totally perverse.

Hi
I had a few prominent games yesterday which either had no market score, or were very erratic in their update. There is a big disclaimer in the manual on the reliability of this data, so it is probably best not to depend on on it. Thankfully, it is quite easy to get rapid confirmation of a change in score by detecting obvious price changes in other markets e.g. CS.

Mark, I was aware of the disclaimer, but is this data (like the new tennis scores) not now sourced from Betfair?  Or should it now be sourced from Betfair?

Hi rubold
Yes – comes from BF http://betting.betfair.com/live-scores/
(Tim confirmed this in the topic we discussed on tennis scores, although he mentioned inplay.betfair.com which looks to have changed)

BF also disclaim as follows on the front page:

“Warning: Although the current score, time elapsed and other data provided on this site is sourced from a "live" feed provided by a third party, you should be aware that this data may be subject to a time delay and/or be inaccurate.  If you rely on this data to place bets, you do so entirely at your own risk. Betfair provides this data AS IS with no warranty as to the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of such data and accepts no responsibility for any loss (direct or indirect) suffered by you as a result of your reliance on it.”

...not much we can do about that I don’t think
