The Televised Game Of The Weekend We are starting a new regular free message Quite simply ex bookmaker Phil will take a look at the major televised match each weekend and point you to what he feels are some decent options. Norm I guess will be to examine the big Sunday match. Here is what […]
Read moreAndy Carrolls name has rather surprisingly been linked with a loan move to AC Milan although William Hill do not think that particular move is on the cards, offering 1/12 that he does not make the move to the San Siro (to AC Milan). It does look likely that Carroll could make a move away from Anfield, whether on loan or permanently, with Hills offering 4/1 that he is not at Liverpool when the transfer window slams shut.
Aquilani spent last season at AC Milan and despite the relations that may or may not have been built between the clubs because of that particular deal, we do not think a move for Andy Carroll is very likely, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.
Rumours suggesting that Roberto Mancini could be on his way from Manchester City may not be too wide of the mark, with William Hill making the Italian 11/2 to have left Eastlands by the time the season starts and Hills can also report that Mancini has been backed in from 33/1 to 4/1 favourite to be the first Premier League manager to leave his position.
Andy Carroll to be at AC Milan at end of transfer window: 6/1 yes; 1/12 no
Andy Carroll to have left Liverpool by the end of the transfer window: 4/1 yes; 1/7 no
*loan deals count
Roberto Mancini to be at Manchester City on the first day on 2012/13 season: 11/2 no; 1/10 yes
First Premier League manager to leave his job: 4/1 Roberto Mancini; 8/1 Sam Allardyce; 9/1 Chris Hughton; 9/1 Michael Laudrup; 9/1 Steve Clarke; 11/1 Brendan Rodgers; 11/1 Mark Hughes; 11/1 Nigel Adkins; 11/1 Roberto Di Matteo; 11/1 Roberto Martinez; 12/1 Martin Jol; 14/1 Paul Lambert; 16/1 Brian McDermott; 20/1 BAR

DALGLISH TO SUCCEED COMMOLI?
WILLIAM HILL have made Kenny Dalglish 5/1 third favourite to succeed the departed Damien Commoli as Liverpools Director of Football Strategy. With Dalglish himself under pressure over Liverpools poor Premier League performances this season, we could see him being moved upstairs before the start of next season said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Any other 9/1
Frank Lampard was one of the players selected to model Chelseas new kit, prompting William Hill to cut his odds of being at Chelsea next season from 4/6 to 4/11 (2/1 to have left).
There were many who said that Frank was off to while away his days with his pal Backs in America, but his recent form coupled with his undoubted desire to remain a Chelsea player has lead us to reassess our opinion, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Read moreEverton thumped Sunderland to move four points ahead of Liverpool and for the first time this season, William Hill make the Blues odds on, at 8/15 to finish above Kenny Dalglishs men (Liverpool are 11/8 to finish above Everton). Kenny Dalglish is odds on at 8/11 to have bowed out of Anfield by the time that next season kicks off (Evens to still be there).
Not since the mid 2000s have Everton finished above Liverpool and now, for the first time since then we have made Everton odds on to finish above their red rivals, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly. That does not make for good reading for Dalglish though.
Since Fabio Capello resigned as England boss and Harry Redknapp was mooted as his replacement, Spurs have only won once. Despite this, Hills make Redknapp the 1/4 favourite to become the next permanent England boss. Hills offer 12/1 that Spurs fail to win any of their next four games although make them 6/4 to win their next match against Chelsea in the FA Cup semi final.
When will Spurs next win:
Chelsea (N) (FAC) (90mins) 6/4
QPR (A) (PL) 2/1
Blackburn (H) (PL) 13/5
Bolton (A) (PL) 16/1
Win none of these 12/1
Who will finish higher in the league:
Liverpool 11/8
Everton 8/15
Dalglish still at Liverpool at the start of next season
Yes 8/11
No EVS
Moyes still at Everton at the start of next season:
Yes 1/3
No 9/4
Next England boss Redknapp -1/4

Read moreIt was a busy day at the bottom of the Premier League table as both Bolton and Wigan pulled off victories. Despite their shock victory at Anfield, William Hill make Wigan 1/4 to be relegated come the end of the season, the same price as QPR. Another defeat for Terry Connor left Wolves adrift at the foot of the table and 1/7 with Hills for the drop. Boltons victory moved them up into 17th and they are 11/8 to go down with Blackburn 9/4. Hills think that the current bottom three are doomed, offering 10/11 that they are the three who are relegated. Liverpools home defeat to Wigan and their second consecutive defeat to bottom three opposition has left Kenny Dalglish 5/2 to no longer be in charge of Liverpool come the start of next season (2/7 to still be there).
The victories for Wigan and Bolton have certainly condensed things at the bottom of the table and while there are only a couple of points separating Wolves and Blackburn, we think Terry Connors men are teetering on the brink and they may just rag QPR and Wigan with them, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.
Arsenals comfortable victory left them in pole position to grab third spot in the Premier League and William Hill make them 4/7 to finish as the top London club. Spurs are currently suffering a dismal run of form and they are 6/4 while Chelsea are 10/1.

AFTER THE ANFIELD MOGGY WHICH ANIMAL WILL NEXT STOP PLAY IN A LIVE TELEVISED PREMIER LEAGUE MATCH?
After the unexpected arrival of a feline interloper on to the pitch at Anfield provided one of the most exciting moments of the 0-0 draw between Liverpool ad Spurs on Monday night, William Hill have opened a book on which will be the next animal to bring a Premier League game to a halt and make a Dog the 6/4 favourite. Many hard tackling players have in the past been compared with animals, but it is rare for a real animal other than club mascots- to invade the pitch. The Anfield Cat was definitely the most interesting aspect of a very mundane goalless draw so we are inviting to punters to speculate on the creature involved next time it happens said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Dog 6/4
Fox 5/2
Cat 5/1
Squirrel 7/1
Rabbit/Hare 8/1
Rat 12/1
Horse 25/1

HOW MANY MORE PREM GOALS WILL TORRES SCORE THIS SEASON?

WHERE WILL NEWCASTLE FINISH?
DESPTE currently challenging for a Champions League place, Newcastle are odds on with William Hill to finish between 7th and 10th in the Premier League.

Blackburn avoided defeat at Anfield, but despite this, they remain favourites for the drop while their manager remains favourite for the chop. Rovers are 1/2 for relegation at William Hill with Wigan 4/7 and Bolton 8/11 while their manager is 1/2 to be the second Premier League manager to leave his club. Owen Coyles Bolton were on the receiving end of yet another home defeat and Owen Coyle is the 11/4 second favourite to get the axe, while Andre Villas-Boas is 8/1 third favourite.
Owen Coyle is 4/6 to have left Bolton by the start of next season, while Steve Kean is 1/4 to have left Blackburn by the same timeframe. Andre Villas-Boas is odds-on, at 4/9 to still be at Chelsea come the first game of next season.
Hills offer 6/4 that the second Premier League manager is sacked in December and 8/11 that it is in January.
The season of goodwill is well and truly over and the sounds of knives being sharpened is getting louder, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Read moreA hard fought battle at Anfield ended in a draw and Manchester United maintained their unbeaten start to the season. William Hill were impressed with the Red Devil’s resilience and make United 12/1 to remain undefeated all season.
“Much like last season, United have had a flying start to the season but this season they appear much harder to break down,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “The unbeaten season is starting to look more and more possible.”
A draw was a fantastic result for bookmakers, with Hill’s having taken a reasonable six figure sum on their highest turnover match of the season.
“Most people watching the game would have had an opinion one way or another and the draw was the perfect result to set up our weekend,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.
William Hill Odds:
When will Manchester United next lose: 2/1 Manchester City; 4/1 Everton; 14/1 Sunderland; 14/1 Swansea; 8/1 Newcastle; 6/4 none of these
12/1 Manchester United to remain undefeated all season
