Bookies bemoan Old Trafford ref’s time keeping:

CHELSEA 16/1 TO STAY UNBEATEN ALL PREM SEASON
Bookmakers William Hill were as aggrieved as Mark Hughes as Manchester United’s late Michael Owen winner left them substantially worse off: ‘Had the ref blown thirty seconds or so earlier, at which point everyone other than United fans were convinced the game was over, we’d have been a substantial seven figure sum better off’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘We can only suppose that time passes more slowly at Old Trafford than anywhere else in the universe!. All those punters who backed the Big Four all to win at the weekend at odds of just under 3/1 will also be quite happy with the ref’s timekeeping.’
Chelsea have been cut from 6/5 to 11/10 favourites to win the Premiership title by William Hill who make Manchester United 9/4 favourites and also offer 13/2 Liverpool; 8/1 Arsenal; 10/1 Man City; 50/1 Spurs; 125/1 Villa; 250/1 Everton. City are 11/10 with Hills to finish in the top four, 4/6 not to.
AND HILLS NOW MAKE CHELSEA 16/1 TO REMAIN UNDEFEATED ALL SEASON IN THE PREMIERSHIP.

HART OF THE MATTER FOR POMPEY

WILLIAM HILL have slashed their odds for Portsmouth’s manager Paul Hart to be the first Premiership manager to leave his job this season from odds against at 11/10, to odds on at 4/6 – and Hills also now make Portsmouth odds on at 4/9 to be relegated this season.
‘Hart has to be under severe pressure as he was appointed by the former owners of the club and their form has not improved since the new ownership took over’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
