6/1 Mc Leish Gone By End Of Year Etc

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

6/1 McLEISH OUT BEFORE END OF YEAR?

AFTER HIS controversial appointment as Villa boss, William Hill offer 6/1 that he will leave the position before the end of 2011 but believe he will lead the club to 8th-10th position next season – which they quote at 6/4, and make them 14/1 to finish in the top four and 20/1 to go down.
Hills make Villa 13/8 to win their opening game against 11/8 Fulham with the draw a 21/10 chance. ‘It would seem to be vital for McLeish to get off to a winning start if he is to get Villa fans on his side’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM HILL SAY THAT over a quarter of a million pounds has been gambled with them on the five recent managerial markets for Birmingham, Cardiff, Chelsea, Fulham and Villa. ‘We won a five figure sum on McLeish’s appointment and a smaller sum on Malky Mackay should he be confirmed as Cardiff boss, but lost on Martin Jol. These markets have provided us with a terrific turnover in the absence of any Premier League matches, and confirm the tremendous interest in all elements of the top division’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

When Will McLEISH Leave Villa?
2011 6/1
2012 6/4
2013 5/2
2014 4/1
2015 + 10/1

ENGLAND ODDS-ON TO CZECH OUT OF EURO TOURNAMENT EARLY

ENGLAND are now 4/6 with William Hill to crash out of the U21 tournament at the Group stage following their disappointing draw against Ukraine.

Having drawn for the second time, England are now offered at 9/4 to draw, and 11/10 to win, their final group game against Czech Republic. Daniel Sturridge is the 11/2 favourite to open the scoring in the match, while Danny Welbeck, who squandered a glorious chance against the Ukraine, is 13/2.
‘England’s first two games have proved disappointing for fans and punters alike but we need them to get through to boost betting interest in the event, even though they’ll inevitably cost us a few bob if they goon to win the tournament’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
England are now out to 11/2 to win the tournament, having been as short as 9/2. Spain, having effectively qualified from their group are now 8/11 clear favourites to go on and win the tournament.

…………………William Hill Premier League Specials…………………………

STUTTERING STRIKER AT CHELSEA FOR LONG HAUL

Despite Fernando Torres’ current lack of form, William Hill think that Didier Drogba will be heading for the Chelsea exit first. Of the four top strikers at Chelsea at the moment, Drogba is the favourite, followed by Anelka at 7/4, Sturridge at 3/1 and Torres at 11/2.

“Despite the faltering start to his career as a blue, it looks as though Torres is at the Bridge for the long haul and it may well be that one of Chelsea’s other prize trinkets may be heading for the exit first,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Which Chelsea Striker Will Leave First: 11/8 Drogba; 7/4 Anelka; 3/1 Sturridge; 11/2 Torres.

When Will Torres Score: 1/1 West Brom; 2/1 Birmingham; 7/1 West Ham; 7/1 Tottenham; 10/1 Manchester United; 14/1 Newcastle; 20/1 Everton; 7/2 None of these (not to score this season).
