GAMBLE ON WOLFSBURG TO BEAT DEPLETED UNITED

WILLIAM HILL have shortened their odds for Wolfsburg to beat Manchester United in their Tuesday night Champions League clash from 5/4 to 11/10 after reports that United will be without 15 first team players. ‘We have taken a flurry of four figure bets for Wolfsburg following the news that United will be well below strength and that Alex Ferguson doesn’t seem to be worried whether they finish first or second in the Group. We’re taking very little serious money for United, which is most unusual’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills currently offer 11/10 Wolfsburg; 12/5 draw; 12/5 Manchester United.

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

ARSENE 9/4 TO HAND SPARKY ANOTHER HANDSHAKE SNUB

WILLIAM HILL offer 9/4 that Arsene Wenger will again refuse to shake hands with Mark Hughes when Arsenal entertain Manchester City in their second Premier League game later this season – and are offering 11/10 that he will again refuse to shake hands with Hughes or any other manager during the rest of the season in any competitive first team game.
‘Arsene has an answer for everything, but he had the grace to look just a little embarrassed when trying to justify not shaking hands with Mark Hughes on Wednesday night’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘We think the chances are he will make sure that nothing similar happens again this season.’
Hills now make Wenger 9/2 to have left Arsenal by the first day of next season.
HILLS:
Arsene to be Gunners’ boss on first 1st day of next season = 1/8 yes 9/2 no
Will Arsene refuse to shake another manager’s hand after a competitive game this season? = 11/10 yes 4/6 no
Arsene to shake Mark Hughes’s hand when Arsenal host Man City in the Premier League – 1/3 yes 9/4 no
WILL FERGIE LEAVE STARTS OUT OF FIRST CITY SEMI?
WILLIAM Hill are offering odds about whether Alex Ferguson will rest his three biggest stars and not start them for the first Carling Cup semi final leg against City. ‘Fergie has said he will trust in the youngsters and we believe he’ll stick to that – at least in the first leg!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
To start in the 1st leg Man City v Man Utd:
Rooney 4/9 no 13/8
Berbatov 8/11 no EVS yes
Giggs 2/5 no 7/4 yes
***MANCHESTER UNITED are 6/4 favourites for the Carling Cup with William Hill who make Man City 5/2 second favourites, with Villa 11/4 and Blackburn 9/2 outsiders.
**Hills make United 4/6 to knock out City who are 11/10, while Villa are 8/15 to eliminate Rovers who are 11/8.

HODGSON ODDS ON TO BOSS OLYMPIC FOOTBALL TEAM

WILLIAM HILL have installed Fulham boss Roy Hodgson as 8/15 favourite to manage the GB team for the 2012 Olympics. ‘Few could argue that Hodgson has done a tremendous job at Fulham, but there are a few other contenders with strong claims, too, and despite cliams that Hodgson will be offered the role it may be far from a fait accompli as yet’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM HILL:Who Will Manage 2021 Olympic Football Team ?
Roy Hodgson 8/15
Stuart Pearce 9/4
Alex Ferguson 14/1
Fabio Capello 16/1
Harry Redknapp 16/1
Martin Oneill 16/1

HILLS….Play offs- to qualify….. 4/6 Ukraine v 11/10 Greece; 2/9 Portugal v 7/2 Bosnia; 1/4 Russia v 11/4 Slovenia; 2/7 France v 5/2 Rep Ire
20/1 ENGLAND – BRAZIL IS WORLD CUP FINAL DRESS REHEARSAL!

WILLIAM HILL are offering 20/1 that England and Brazil, who play a weekend friendly, will meet again in the World Cup Final – and 3/1 that the two take each other on at any stage of the tournament. ‘England go into this match on good terms with themselves and as one of the countries qualifying in style for the final stages, so speculation about an England- Brazil Final may not be regarded as entirely unhinged!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
However, Hills still make Brazil 23/20 favourites to win the game, with England 2/1 and the draw 21/10. Brazil are Evens with Hills to go further than England in the World Cup, with Capello’s side 11/8 to do vice versa, and 4/1that both will be eliminated at the same stage. (3rd place play off to count if relevant).
TO WIN WORLD CUP: 9/2 Brazil and Spain; 6/1 England; 7/1 Argentina; 12/1 Germany; 14/1 Holland; Italy; 16/1 Portugal; 20/1 France; 25/1 Russia; 33/1 Ivory Coast.

IS BECKS NO-HOPES TO BEAT SHILTS?

DAVID BECKHAM’s absence from the squad for the Brazil game is a blow to his chances of ovrtaking Peter Shilton’s record number of caps, and William Hill have pushed him out from 3/1 to 5/1 as a consequence. ‘He now has virtually no chance of catching Shilton during the World Cup, and his best hope may be to get so close that the FA take pity on him and organise a series of friendlies to take him past Shilts. Failing that, if he does play well during the World Cup, Capello may keep him involved for the Euro qualification campaign – always assuming that the boss is still there after the World Cup’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Hills are also betting on which of Drogba or Owen will be the first to go, and have opened a book on who Chelsea may sign in the transfer window, making Benfica’s Di Maria and Vasco da Gama’s Teixeira 5/1 both 5/1 shots to arrive at the Bridge. ‘Chelsea worked so hard to be permitted to buy in January that you have to assume they have some serious spending to do’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

BENITEZ 9/4 FOR CHOP AS LIVERPOOL 4/7 TO CRASH OUT OF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

WILLIAM HILL offer 9/4 that Rafa Benitez will leave his job as Liverpool manager before the end of the current season – with Liverpool 4/7 to fail to make the next stage of the Champions League – and 5/4 to get through. ‘With most managers in Rafa’s situation you’d think that elimination from the Champions League at this stage would automatically mean the sack, but until he loses the fans he seems to be safe and although there are murmurings of discontent there is not yet open hostility towards him, which is why he is 1/3 to see the season out’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
HILLS OFFER 11/2 THAT RAFA WILL LEAVE LIVERPOOL BEFORE PHIL BROWN LEAVES HULL, AND 1/10 VICE VERSA. ‘Brown seems to have only a game or two to save his job, but if Rafa loses to Lyon and then fails to beat Birmingham in the League who knows what will happen’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

You Bet Brown On Brink At Hull

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

As rumours abound that Brown is on way out:
BROWN ON THE BRINK – WHO’LL BE NEXT?

FOLLOWING RUMOURS OF THE imminent departure of Phil Brown from Hull City, William Hill have stopped taking bets for him to go, and installed Portsmouth’s Paul Hart as odds-on favourite to be the next Premier League manager to leave his club. ‘ With rumours circulating that Phil Brown is on the verge of leaving Hull City, we have taken him out of our market for the next Premiership manager to leave his club in which he was 7/4 joint favourite with Paul Hart. We saw a string of bets for Brown to go, with punters asking to stake up to £500 a time. At that point we decided to close the book. The possible departure of Brown could trigger a wave of managerial moves, but although Paul Hart is an obvious favourite to be next to go, given his side’s position at the bottom of the table, the bizarre financial and ownership situation at the club could mean that there is noone really in a position to remove him at the moment’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. Hills have also now stopped taking bets on whether Phil Brown will still be at Hull on the final day of the season.
Hills currently make Hull 2/5 favourites to be relegated (7/4 to stay up), and 11/8 favourites to finish bottom of the table.

LIVERPOOL-UNITED BIGGEST BETTING MATCH OF SEASON SO FAR

Given the lack of draw so far in the Premiership, which has cost us fortunes, we could do with this match ending all square’ said William Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM HILL are betting on what the final average tally for goals per game in Premiership matches will be this season, and offer 11/1 that it will be over 2.9 per game.’There have been goals galore in the Prem so far this season but we think the ultimate average per game is likely to be between 2.61 and 2.7, so we make that range our 6/4 favourite’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

2.50 – 2.6 4/1
2.61 – 2.7 6/4
2.71 -2.8 2/1

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on how many Premiership goals Arsenal will score this season and offer 5/6 80 or more; 5/6 79 or fewer.

The Gunners are 14/1 with Hills to score 100 or more Prem goals. ‘It has been goals galore for the Gunners at home and if they can keep them flowing 100 should be within their capabilities’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

With the Arsenal-Blackburn match clocking up a new highest aggregate of the Prem season so far, 8 goals, Hills offer 2/5 that no game this season will produce 9 or more; 5/2 that 9 will be the highest aggregate of the Prem season; 9/1 that 10 will be the highest aggregate; 20/1 that 11 or more will be highest aggregate.
