Sunderland Favourites To Avenge Their Tyne/wear Humiliation

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

William Hill are offering 100/1 that Sunderland can reverse the 5-1 drubbing that they received at the hands of their bitter rivals, Newcastle, earlier in the season while Sunderland are 5/4 to win the game outright. Hills are offering 4/7 that Sunderland finish above Newcastle in the Premier League this year with Newcastle 5/4 to finish above Sunderland. Sunderland are 4/1 to qualify for Europe this year while Newcastle are 14/1 to do so. Darren Bent is 9/4 to outscore Andy Carroll on Saturday.

“Sunderland have been on an incredible run of form recently and they will be itching to set the record straight after the 5-1 thumping at the hands of their neighbours earlier in the season,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “The odds suggest that come Sunday evening, it will be the Mackems that are celebrating.”

YOU BET THEY THINK IT’S ROVERS AND OUT WITH THE WALLET!

WILLIAM HILL have cut their odds for Blackburn to sign one or more players costing over £5m in the January transfer window from 10/1 to 5/1. ‘It appears that a few punters believe the club’s claim that a fee of £6.2m for Ronaldinho is possible’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
However, Hills are also offer 11/10 that Blackburn will sign no one at all for money, or no more than £500,000; 10/1 that they spend between £500,001 – £1m; 9/2 Over £1m – £3m; 7/1 Over £3m – £5m.

MOYES BACKED TO BE NEXT BOSS OUT

WILLIAM HILL have cut David Moyes from 20/1 to 7/1 to be the next Premier League boss to leave his club after internet rumours that he was about to resing sparked a flurry of bets on the Everton boss to be next out. ‘You disregard rumours at your financial peril in volatile markets such as this so we have slashed his odds just in case there is anything in the story’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills make Roy Hdgson 6/4favourite to be the next Prem boss to go and also offer 10/3 Mark Hughes; 4/1 Avram Grant; 5/1 Carlo Ancelotti; 11/2 Mick McCarthy; 6/1 Gerard Houllier; 7 Moyes; 16 Martinez; 25/1 no more bosses to go this season.

Bookies Not Kean On Rover Steve

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

BOOKIES NOT KEAN ON NEW BLACKBURN BOSS STEVE!

WITH Steve Kean being appointed as Blackburn manager, William Hill are already offering odds of 5/6 that he will be OUT of the job by the first day of next season.’
Since Sam Allardyce left Blackburn they have been one of the best backed teams to be relegated and are now down to 7/1 for the drop’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
And Hills make Kean 28/1 to be the NEXT Premier League manager to leave his job.
Hills have paid out to customers who backed Kean to get the job – but say that anyone who backed any other contender to become the next Blackburn manager will have their bet carried over until Kean is succeeded by the next permanent boss at the club. ‘As it is Christmas, we are paying out on Kean, but letting all other bets on the market stand until the manager after Kean is permanently appointed’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.’We think punters may not have long to wait to find out who that will be.’

STEVE KEAN to be Blackburn manager on first day of next season – 5/6 NO; 5/6 YES
STEVE KEAN TO be next Prem manager of this season to leave his job – 28/1
BLACKBURN to be relegated – 7/1 yes; 1/16 no.

Punters Celebrate 440/1 Premier League Accumulator… England’s World Cup Bid Going Down The Panorama?

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

Punters Celebrate 440/1 Premier League Accumulator…

William Hill’s ‘Will Both Teams Score’ coupon has proved a staggering success with punters since it was first launched in August 2009. For the first time since the coupon’s inception, Hills have had to pay out on all twenty Premier League teams scoring. Already, from a standing start, the bet regularly takes more money than perennial football favourite – the correct score.

“As the first mainstream bookmaker to offer the bet – and one of the few to offer customers the option of betting on whether individual teams will or will not score, we were optimistic that it would prove popular, but it has exceeded all expectations and is now even out-performing the correct score turnover,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

The bet is not just limited to Premier League fixtures and punters can supplement their selections with games from the top four English divisions as well as SPL and FA Cup ties as well. Despite the fact that Blackburn’s Christopher Samba had a face like thunder when he headed in his consolation goal against Manchester United at the weekend, William Hill punters will have been all smiles as he completed a clean sweep on Saturday. Punters who backed all 20 sides to score will be wanting to kiss Martin Skrtel (although how pleased he will be about it is another matter) who completed the weekend’s scoring by netting at both ends at White Hart Lane!

“This weekend was a real headache for us as the price for all twenty teams to score was over 440/1 but the coupon is proving a real success. Most other bets would have been dead when Blackburn were 7-0 down on Saturday but it still gave our punters something to shout about. We will be hoping for a different outcome this weekend, however, when the price is 555/1 for all 20 to score,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

England’s World Cup Bid Going Down The Panorama?

Panorama are set to broadcast their controversial show on the World Cup bribing scandal tonight despite claims that it could harm England’s bid to host the competition. As it stands Russia are the 4/6 favourites to win the chance to host the 2018 World Cup with England the 9/4 second favourites.

“At the moment England are the second favourites to host the 2018 World Cup but we are fully expecting their odds to change after tonight’s show. Which way they will go is impossible to gauge. Come tomorrow morning, England could either be back in with a shout or out of the running completely,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill World Cup 2018 Bid Odds:

4/6 Russia; 9/4 England; 3/1 Portugal & Spain; 50/1 Belgium & Holland

HOLLOWAY TO JUMP SHIP?

WITH Ian Holloway threatening to quit following the row over the side Blackpool fielded against Aston Villa, William Hill have made him 3/1 joint second favourite with Avram Grant to be the next Prem boss to leave his club.’Ian Holloway is an outspoken and interesting addition to the roster of Premier League bosse and most fans will hope he stays with the club, but he also seems to be an impulsive character who might just decide to quit on a point of principle’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
