THE WORLD’S BIGGEST GAMBLE ON THE WORLD’S BIGGEST TOURNAMENT

BOOKMAKERS William Hill are convinced the World Cup will produce the first £1billion+ betting turnover after taking two SIX FIGURE bets even before a ball had been kicked in the World Cup.
‘We have taken a £200,000 bet from a telephone client on six countries either to qualify or miss out from the Group stage which could return £363,180 to the client’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘And another customer has staked £110,000 on France for the World Cup at odds of 20/1 It is an each-way bet which could make a profit of £1.65m – which would make it the biggest winning football bet of all time.’
And England have not been ignored by the high rollers, with two bets of £6500 placed on them at odds of 8/1. But nor have England’s first opponents USA, on whom one punter has staked £5000 at 80/1 to win the tournament.
ENGLAND are 4/9 favourites to get off to a winning start against USA with William Hill who make them 4/9 favourites to win the game for which the USA are 13/2 outsiders with the draw at 16/5.
WAYNE ROONEY is 5/1 to be sent off during the tournament and 25/1 to do so against USA. He is 10/3 to score the opening goal of the game; 10/3 to score the last; 4/5 to score at any stage of the game; 7/2 to score 2 or more; 20/1 to score a hat trick.
‘We have had to create a whole range of Rooney special bets to cope with the demand from punters’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
WILLIAM HILL ROONEY SPECIALS…..6/4 TO BE SUBSTITUTED V USA; 2/1 To be yellow carded; 7/2 to score in both halves;4/1 to score with a header; 5/1 to hit the woodwork; 6/1 to score from outside the penalty box; 7/1 to win a penalty.
