In Appleton v H. little wood Ltd [1939] 1 All ER 464 a punter claimed to have won £4 335 on the football pools but the defendants refused to pay. The pools form which the claimant had completed contained the rules and conditions. Rule 2 said, 'It is a basic condition of the sending in and the acceptance of this coupon that ... any agreement entered into or payment made by or under it shall not be attended by or give rise to any legal relationship, rights, duties or consequences whatsoever or be legally enforceable or the subject of litigation, but all such arrangements, agreements and transactions are binding in honour only'. The defendants claimed that the sending in of the coupon and the acceptance of it could not possibly amount to a contract. Do you think that the Court of Appeal agreed?
