I never thought about it either until someone
else suggested it.  So you're not the only one. 
It is an intriguing theory but there are a few
things that bother me with that theory.

First, can people go forward in time?  We know
they can go back.  But when they go back, they go
to the specific place they were at that time,
e.g. Hermione and Harry go the Entrance Hall
where they had been 3 hours previously.  So,
first, if Fred and George could go forward, where
would they go if they hadn't been there yet? 
Would they end up sitting on their future selves'
laps?  How would they know how far into the
future to go when no one knows how long the match
is going to be?  If they didn't go forward to the
match, but instead went forward and checked the
Daily Prophet, wouldn't they have known by that
time that the gold Ludo gives them is fake?

Of course, there's always the possibility that
the future Fred and George time traveled back to
the present Fred and George and told them who to
bet on and they might not have waited long enough
to know that their winnings would disappear.

travel as it just hurts my head too much)
