BefFred owner Fred Done has decided to pay out on Manchester United winning the Premier League title this season.

Yesterday's 2-0 victory over Blackburn Rovers has put the Red Devils five points clear of their rivals Manchester City with seven matches remaining.

Done made a similar decision in 1998, losing around £500,000 by paying out on United when they were 12 points clear of Arsenal. However, Arsene Wenger's side went on a winning streak that saw them lift the trophy.

Listen to Done's reasoning below:
