Tubular flips round when inflated

Hi All,

I've got a spare tubular ready for my triathlon this weekend and inflated it to pre-glue it.

Trouble is, when fully inflated, it flips itself round so the tread is on the inside and the cotton glue surface on the outside.

It takes some considerable force to twist it back round and won't stay there.

Is this common and will it be fine when it's on a rim?

Thanks,

Pat...
