Gamble On Skipper Rooney Intensifies

As Fabio flies in……
ROONEY-FOR-SKIPPER GAMBLE GATHERS PACE

WITH FABIO Capello back in the country the guessing game as to his intentions over the John Terry situation has continued, with William Hill forced to slash their odds about Wayne Rooney taking over as captain for England’s opening World Cup game against USA for the second day running, this time from 10/1 to 6/1. ‘With punters betting up to £250 a time on Rooney taking over the armband we’ve had to cut his odds significantly again’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills have now lengthened Terry from 4/9 to 4/7 to be skipper for that game and make Steven Gerrard 5/2 second favourite, with Rooney 6/1; Ferdinand 8/1; Lampard 16/1; Beckham 20/1.
JOHN TERRY is 8/13 with Hills to keep the captain’s armband in the forthcoming friendly against Egypt, and 6/5 to lose it.

John Terry 10/1 To Resign As England Skipper

Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

10/1 John Terry to resign as England skipper:
TERRY ODDS ON TO RETAIN ENGLAND CAPTAINCY

DESPITE yet another high profile tabloid scandal enveloping the England football team captain, bookmakers William Hill believe John Terry will still be skipper of his country when the 2010 World Cup kicks off – and make him a 4/11 chance to start the opening game against USA wearing the captain’s armband. Hills offer 10/1 that Terry will resign the captaincy before Chelsea kick off their forthcoming midweek game against Hull.
‘Even the most accident-prone politician might find it difficult to survive the sort of stories Terry has been involved in recently, but football seems to have a moral code all of its own and the chances are that Terry will avoid being stripped of the captaincy’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

**WHO WILL SKIPPER ENGLAND V USA?…..4/11 Terry; 11/4 Gerrard; 16/1 David Beckham; Rio Ferdinand; Wayne Rooney.(Others on request)
HILLS OFFER 1/3 THAT TERRY WILL STILL BE A CHELSE PLAYER ON THE FIRST DAY OF NEXT SEASON, 9/4 THAT HE WILL NOT.
