Special Comeback At Chelsea ?

A SPECIAL CHELSEA COMEBACK? YOU BET………..

WILLIAM HILL have cut their odds for Jose Mourinho to return to Stamford Bridge as the next permanent Chelsea boss from 8/1 to 4/1 after taking a number of three figure bets on the Special One succeeding Carlo Ancelotti. ‘We saw three figure bets in those hot spots of football, Barnsley and Kent, but with a number of other, smaller wagers also being staked there is clearly speculation that Jose is not long for Real and that Carlo could be history at Chelsea by next season. Bitter experience has taught us to react quickly to unexpected beting moves in ‘Next Boss’ markets!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM HILL NEXT PERMANENT CHELSEA MANAGER MARKET……2/1 Hiddink; 4/1 Mourinho; 8/1 Deschamps; Rijkaard; 10 Guardiola; 12 O’Neill; 14 Klinsmann; 16 Benitez; Moyes; 20 Capello. Others on request.

’URRY UP ‘ARRY – ENGLAND EXPECTS……!
Following Spurs’ outstanding win in Milan, masterminded by Harry Redknapp, William Hill cut his odds from 3/1 to 5/2 to become the next permanent England manager – and have had to cut their odds further, from 5/2 to 2/1 favourite as football fans backed him to succeed Capello.

‘Most football fans have a soft spot for ‘Arry, as he is frequently known, and it appears that most punters – even Spurs’ fans – are convinced he is the man to restore England’s fortunes once Capello as finally been prised away from the job’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM HILL…NEXT PERMANENTLY APPOINTED ENGLAND MANAGER….2/1 Harry Redknapp; 6/1 Martin O’Neill; 8/1 Stuart Pearce; 8/1 Gareth Southgate; 9/1 Roy Hodgson; 12/1 Sam Allardyce; 12/1 Steve Bruce; 14/1 Alan Shearer.

Hills are also offering 8/11 that 6 or 7 of Wednesday’s starting XI start in the Millennium Stadium.

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

WILLIAM HILL have made Ralf Rangnick 5/1 joint third favourite to succeed Roy Hodgson as permanent Liverpool manager following support for the former Hoffenheim boss.

‘With a number of the same names in the frame for both jobs these are likely to be volatile markets’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

You Bet: England Will Ring Changes After Carroll’s Debut Fizzles Out

You Bet: England Will Ring Changes After Carroll’s Debut Fizzles Out

England had the better of the closing stages against France, but could not overcome the two goal deficit that the visitors had amassed by the 55th minute. With a relatively untried formula and team on show tonight, William Hill believe that the England team that lines up against Wales will be a lot more recognisable and offer 11/10 that either four or five of the team that started against France line up for the Three Lions next competitive fixture. Hills offer 11/8 that three or less take to the field at the Millenium Stadium.

Andy Carroll showed glimpses of his quality in the 70 minutes that he was on although he is 2/7 to fail to start the game against Wales. He is 50/1 to be the leading scorer in Euro 2012.

Despite the minor setback of his first defeat at Wembley, Hills are odds on, at 4/11, that Capello leaves his post in 2012 and he is 10/1 to leave before the end of the year.

“Tonight’s game was not the most enjoyable of games to watch and with such an inexperienced team, it was always going to be difficult, however, Capello will surely ring the changes by the time the Wales game comes around and his side are still odds on to qualify for the Euro’s,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill England Odds:

When will Capello leave:
2010 10
2011 4
2012 4/11
2013 or later 11/2

Andy Carroll to start v Wales:

2/7 No
5/2 Yes

Andy Carroll to be top scorer in Euro 2012: 50/1

How many starters v France will start v Wales:

3 or less 11/8
4 or 5 11/10
6 or 7 7/2
8 or more 20/1

Euro 2012 Qualifying Group G: 1/5 England; 7/1 Montenegro; 12/1 Bulgaria; 12/1 Switzerland; 100/1 Wales

WILLIAM HILL offer 9/2 that all four current home nation managers will be out of their jobs by the time the Euro 2012 Finals kick off – ‘There isn’t one of them who can be absolutely confident of still being in place by the time the Finals get underway’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe – ‘And we’re 80/1 that all four survive until then.’

ROONEY 13/2 NOT TO START NEXT ENGLAND QUALIFIER

WILLIAM HILL make England 5/2 to win the rest of their Euro qualifiers but Even money to lose one or more games in qualifying – while Kevin Davies is 11/10 to play any further part in the qualifying campaign.

England are now 7/1 to fail to qualify with Hills.

IS ENGLAND CAREER OVER FOR OWEN?

Although Michael Owen is hoping to win his England place back, William Hill offer 3/1 that he will play any part in the Euro 2012 qualifying matches. ‘Michael may have to face up to the fact that his England career is over as Capello has shown little enthusiasm for restoring him to the side’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Hills offer 2/9 that Owen will play no part at all in the Euro 2012 qualifying campaign.

HODGSON’S CHOICES?

WITH Roy Hodgson hoping to have cash to play with in the January transfer window as a result of Liverpool’s projected take-over, William Hill are betting on how many permanent signings he will make then, and make three or more their 5/4 favourite. ‘Liverpool clearly need to bring in a number of new players but whether they will have the money and whether the right players will be available remains to be seen’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
