YOU BET SAM IS NEXT IN LINE TO GO WEST

SAM ALLARDYCE has been installed as 6/5 favourite by William Hill to be West Brom’s next permanent manager – ‘Sam is available and qualified for the fire-fighting role which West Brom clearly believe they need to fill’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.’There was no betting indication that Roberto d Matteo would be fired – he was a 6/1 chance to be the next boss out but had attracted no significant support’

Punters Turn To Twitter For Tips As Bruce Backed To Quit

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

STEVE BRUCE TWIT? SOME WILL BET ON IT!

TWITTER rumours have sparked a gamble on Steve Bruce to be the enxt Premuier League boss to leave his club – with William Hill cutting their odds from 25/1 to 14/1 as a result of Twitter claims that the Darren Bent departure could result in Bruce leaving too. ‘There are so many sources from which rumours and stories can be broken that it is difficult to differentiate between those with any substance and the purely speculative, but when people start betting because of a Twitter story we need to respond, and that’s what we’ve done this time.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

HILLS MAKE AVRAM GRANT 5/6 favourite to be the next Prem boss to leave his club and also offer 7/2 Ancelotti; 7/1 Hughes; 10/1 McCarthy; Martinez; 12 Houllier; DiMatteo; 14 Bruce; 20 Kean; 12 No more bosses to go this season.

WHEN WILL GRANT LEAVE WEST HAM?

BEFORE 22ND MAY 2011
1/2

22ND MAY – START 2011/12 SEASON
2/1

START 11/12 SEASON – CLOSE JAN ’12 WINDOW
12/1

AFTER JAN ’12 WINDOW
6/1

WITH THE LATEST AVRAM GRANT crisis apparently over, William Hill are betting on when the beleaguered boss – who has now been favourite to be the enxt boss to go on SIX separate occasions this season – will eventually leave West Ham, and make ‘before May 22, 2011’ their 1/2 favourite, offering 6/1 that he is still in charge following the January 2012 transfer window. ‘Avram has proved to be one of the great survivors this season – maybe he’ll still be around to manage West Ham when and if they move into the Olympic Stadium – he’s 16/1 to do that!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

20/1 MORE PENALTY MAYHEM AT EMIRATES

With Arsenal and Leeds both scoring from the penalty spot in their original FA Cup tie, William Hill offer 20/1 that both will again convert spot-kicks in the replay. Hills make Arsenal 2/7 to progress to the next round with Leeds 5/2 to eliminate the Prem title chasers.

YOU BET ALLARDYCE SET TO JOIN HAMMERS!

BOOKMAKERS WILLIAM HILL have seen a run of three figure bets for Sam Allardyce to be the next Premier League manager to leave his job and have slashed his odds from 33/1 to 3/1. ‘We have seen a string of bets of between £100 and £200 a time – most of them struck by people opening accounts purely to place the bets. At the same time some of them are also backing Avram Grant to be the next boss to go – leading us to the conclusion that they have reason to believe Allardyce may be set to take over at West Ham – or Avram Grant at Blackburn!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Grant Next To Go Following Hughton Departure

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

Following the departure of Chris Hughton, William Hill have reopened the betting of the next Premier League manager to leave. West Ham manager Avram Grant is the 7/4 favourite ahead of Wolves manager, Mick McCarthy, and Manchester City’s Roberto Mancini both at 5/1. For another manager to go before Christmas is 7/4.

“Chris Hughton’s departure came as quite a shock seeing as he was 16/1 at the start of the weekend. Under-Fire Avram Grant was the favourite to go before we suspended betting and now the market has reopened he is once again walking on a knife edge” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Next Manager To Go Odds:

7/4 Avram Grant; 5/1 Mick McCarthy; 5/1 Roberto Mancini; 6/1 Carlo Ancelotti; 10/1 Roberto Martinez; 11/1 Roy Hodgson; 20/1 Ian Holloway; 20/1 Mark Hughes; 25/1 Next Newcastle Manager; 25/1 Sam Allardyce; 28/1 No Manger To Go; 33/1 Alex McLeish; 33/1 David Moyes; 33/1 Steve Bruce; 40/1 Gerard Houllier; 50/1 Owen Coyle; 50/1 Roberto Di Matteo; 50/1 Arsene Wenger; 66/1 Tony Pulis; 100/1 Sir Alex Ferguson; 100/1 Harry Redknapp
