NEW FAVOURITE FOR CARDIFF JOB….Chris Hughton has regained favouritism for the Cardiff job with Hills at 5/4 as former favourite, Malky Mackay drifted from 8/11 to 2/1 joint second favourite with Mark Robins, with Di Matteo at 4/1 and Shearer 9/2. ‘This one seems to have some way to go yet’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

FAB NEWS?……….Cesc Fabregas has drifted from 4/6 to 8/11 to leave Arsenal before the start of next season with Hills who make him Evens still to be there. ‘This story has been as long running as an East Enders plot-line and may still have some way to run’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
