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.

Benitez 9/4 For Chop As Liverpool 4/7 To Crash Out Of Champions League

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.

Will Pompey Be Hart Broken Before Hull Browned Off ?

Pompey 7/1 to set all time Prem points low:
WILL POMPEY BE HART-BROKEN BEFORE HULL BROWNED OFF?

PHIL BROWN is 8/11 no longer to be Hull boss on the last day of the season with William Hill – but he is only second favourite to be the first Prem boss of the season to leave his club – with Hils making Pompey’s Paul Hart 10/11 to be the first to go. ‘Hart has an even worse record than Brown this season with seven straight defeats and doesn’t even have the defence that but for him his side wouldn’t even be in the Premiership’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills make Pompey manager Paul Hart 1/ 2 to leave the club before the end of the season and offer 6/4 that Hart will still be there at the end of the campaign; Hills make Portsmouth 7/1 to end the season with 10 or fewer points, and offer 8/13 that they end the camapign with 19 or more points; 13/8 between 12 and 18 inclusive. ‘Everyone seems to think Portsmouth have fewer points than their performances deserve – but as yet points are not awarded for being deserving as far as I am aware’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
