Would this not be the ultimate rip-off?
There's nothing anyone can do. If the losing team thinks it was done intentionally, then I suppose they could file a complaint. Otherwise, I think it's just too bad. But having a visiting book plus the home book and having them checking constantly with each other, and extrapolating that to include the scoreboard should prevent this sort of scenario.
