The Come Beck Kid 7/2 To Fulfil Olympic Dream

July 17, 2012 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Beck, Becks, Craig Bellamy, David Beckham, Football Squad, Free Kick, Fulfil, Golden Balls, Information Mark, Micah Richards, Myoung, Olympic Dream, Olympics, Olympics Information, Pr Assistant, Ryan Giggs, Stuart Pearce, Team Gb, William Hill, Williamhill

Stuart Pearce may have not selected David Beckham for the 18 man Olympics football squad but he has hinted that he may well be on the stand by list. He is 7/2 with William Hill to play at the games.

If selected on the stand by list Beckham could only take the place of Ryan Giggs, Craig Bellamy or Micah Richards due to the restrictions of over age players. Golden Balls is 8/1 to score this summer and it is 14/1 that it is from a free kick. Even more remarkable would be if he captained the team. That is offered at 12/1 with Hills.

Becks playing at the Olympics would be remarkable even to his own standards. It was a shock to see him omitted from the squad but would be even more shocking if he were to come back. No one wants to play for their country more than Beckham and it would be really good to see him represent Team GB this summer, said William Hill spokesman Mark Young.

4/1 For Frank To Join Becks At Galaxy

January 26, 2012 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Becks, Cards, Chelsea, David Beckham, Footy, Frank Lampard, Greenside, Joe Crilly, La Galaxy, Landon Donovan, London N22, Mls, Moving To America, Robbie Keane, Spokesman, Tim Leiweke, William Hill, Williamhill

LA Galaxy Chief, Tim Leiweke, has confirmed that he would be interested in making a move for Frank Lampard and William Hill think that a potential reunion with David Beckham could well be on the cards. He is 4/1 to leave Chelsea at the end of the season and move to the MLS champions.

Any move for Frank to LA would be dependent on one of, designated players, Landon Donovan, Robbie Keane or David Beckham departing, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly. It would also depend on what the future Mrs. Lampard would think about moving to America.

Frank Lampard to join LA Galaxy in the Summer: 4/1 yes; 1/7 no

Lampard Set To Go Head To Head With Wilshere As Leicester Not Too Foxy For Becks

August 5, 2011 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Arsenal, Becks, Bet, David Beckham, Emergence, England Games, Euro 2012, Foxes, Frank Lampard, Greenside, Joe Crilly, League Game, Leicester City, London N22, Match, Old Dog, Sven Goran Eriksson, William Hill, Williamhill, Young Buck

There are many reports suggesting that Frank Lampards England career may be over due to the emergence of Jack Wilshere but William Hill think that he still has a role to play, offering 7/4 that he starts more competitive England games this season than the Arsenal ace. Hills go 6/4 about Wilshere starting more and 7/4 that they start the exact same amount of games.

There are many people saying that Lampard may have lost his position to Wilshere but we think that there is still life in the old dog yet and he will give the young buck a good run for his money this season, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Sven Goran-Eriksson has stated his desire to take David Beckham to Leicester in January, although Hills think that an appearance for the Foxes is unlikely, offering 8/1 that he plays a league game in a Leicester shirt this season.

Lampard/Wilshere Match Bet (who will start most Competitive England games between now and Euro 2012): 7/4 Lampard; 7/4 Tie; 6/4 Wilshere

FORM AN ORDERLY QUEUE, GENTLEMEN…….CARRAGHER FAVOURITE TO BE FIRST LIVERPOOL PLAYER TO FOUL TORRES

WITH Fernando Torres set to make his Chelsea debut against his former team-mates at Liverpool this weekend, William Hill have opened a book on which of those team-mates will be the first to foul him. ‘Of course not one Liverpool player will wish Torres anything other than a successful career at Chelsea, nor will any of them wish to be found guilty of foul play against him – but it is inevitable that one or more of them will foul him, and we rate Jamie Crragher as the most likely to do so first’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

CHELSEA DRAW IS MILLION POUND PLUS BOOST FOR WILLIAM HILL

WILLIAM HILL breathed a million pound-plus sigh of relief when Chelsea failed to beat Villa. ‘Thanks a million, Carlo – after Saturday’s punter-friendly results we had hordes of accumulators running on to a Chelsea victory, so their failure to win is worth a seven figure saving to us and probably an eight figure boost for the industry’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

CARLO MORE LIKELY TO SURVIVE THAN GERARD!

WILLIAM HILL make Carlo Ancelotti an 8/11 chance still to be Chelsea boss on the first day of next season, while Gerard Houllier is 5/6 still to be Villa manager – they are Even money and 5/6 respectively to have left their club by that date. ‘This was a result which clearly did more for Villa than Chelsea, but Houllier is generally perceived to be more at risk than Ancelotti’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills have lengthened Chelsea from 7/2 to 9/2 third favourites to win the Premier League title, and cut Man U from 11/10 to Even money favourites with Aresenal 10/3 second favourites; Man City 11/2; Spurs 20/1.
