Real Madrid and Barcelona both dropped points on Wednesday night and William Hill are offering 1/3 that the pair both fail to win during the same round of matches again this season. Amidst the misery for both sides, Cesc Fabregas scored the fourth goal in his fourth league match since his move to Barca and Hills are offering 9/2 that his run continues for at least another three games. His run is 8/15, however, to come to an end this weekend. Hills go 7/1 that Fabregas scores over 25 goals this season and 4/1 that he scores between 21 and 25.

Fabregas has settled well at Barcelona and his continued good form could see him extend his current goalscoring record, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Consecutive Fabregas Goals: 8/15 four (current run); 5/2 five games; 11/2 six games; 9/2 seven or more games
Must start vs Atletico or bets void

RIO TO RETIRE FROM ENGLAND? YOU BET IT COULD HAPPEN

WITH the controversy raging over whether Fabio Capello will stick with Rio Ferdinand as his England captain, or give the armband back to John Terry on a ‘permanent’ basis, William Hill are not only betting on who will eventually succeed Rio as permanent skipper, but are also offering 10/1 that Rio will announce his retirment from international football before the end of the current season. ‘Rio has been battling against injury during the season and is reportedly not happy that Capello is considering taking the armband from him – either or both of these factors could result in a decision to quit international football, possibly so that he can still figure prominently in Man U’s plans’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
HILLS NOW OFFER 1/4 THAT JOHN TERRY WILL SUCCEED RIO, WHENEVER HE CEASES TO BE PERMANENT ENGLAND SKIPPER UNDER CAPELLO. ‘This has been so frequently flagged up that it already feels like a fait accompli, but maybe Fabio has been waiting to see what the public reaction to such a possible move would be’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

**Hills….Rio Ferdinand to official announce his retirement from International football before end of 2010/11 season…… 10/1

33/1 Fergie To See Red Against Old Enemy

March 11, 2011 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Alex Ferguson, Bet, Bookmakers, Current, Fb, Fergie, Flex, Joe Crilly, Kenny Dalglish, Liverpool, Manchester United, Muscles, Premier League, Reds, Scot, Season 1, Spokesman, Sports, William Hill

Alex Ferguson has been charged by the FA could be forced to watch his side from the stands if he is found guilty. The fiery Scot already has a suspended ban hanging over him and bookmakers, William Hill, are offering 6/1 that he gets another ban this season (should he receive a ban pertaining to his current FA charge). He is 33/1 to see red against Liverpool and get sent to the stands.

Liverpool have really gone backwards since Kenny Dalglish left in 1991 and Fergie will be looking to flex his muscles against his old enemy some 20 years later, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly. He just has to make sure that he does not flex too hard.

Should United win the Premier League this season, for which they are 8/13, Fergie could well call it a day, having broken Liverpools League record and Hills offer 11/2 that he is not in charge of The Reds at the start of the 2011/2012 season. He is 3/1 to not be in charge of United come the start of the 2012/2013 season.

William Hill Alex Ferguson Prices:

6/1 To receive another ban this season (not including the current charge he is facing)
33/1 To be sent to the stands against Liverpool

Will Ferguson be at Manchester United at the start of the 2011/12 season: 1/10 Yes; 11/2 No
Will Ferguson be at Manchester United at the start of the 2012/13 season: 2/9 Yes; 3/1 No

8/13 Manchester United win the Premier League this season

When Will First Prem League Player Come Out ?

March 9, 2011 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Cricketer, Current, England, Fb, First Premier, Gareth Thomas, Gay Players, Graham Sharpe, Leaguer, Odds, Prem, Premier League, Rubgy, Spokesman, Wales, William Hill

WHEN WILL FIRST PREMIER LEAGUE FOOTBALLER ‘COME OUT’?

England cricketer Steven Davies and Wales rubgy player Gareth Thomas have both come out in public as gay. But no current Premier Leaguer footballer has ever done so.
Bookmakers William Hill have opened a book on when – or whether- that will happen.
‘Statistically it is very unlikely that there are currently no gay players in the Premier League’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘But the question of when any current player will be willing to reveal in public that he is gay is one which is causing much discussion. We believe that the perceived problems which may arise for any player who does so may act as a deterrent and therefore think it is odds-on NOT to happen before the end of next season at the earliest.
‘However, the positive reaction to Davies’ recent announcement may well act as an incentive for a Premier League footballer to decide that the time is now right for him to come out in public’

WILLIAM HILL…When will the first current Premier League player come out in public?:

DURING THIS SEASON…………………..6/1
DURING THE CLOSE SEASON…………9/2
2011/2012 SEASON………………………..7/2
AFTER 2011/2012 SEASON……………..4/7

A massive gamble in the last 24 hours has seen Alan Curbishley become the 7/4 outright favourite at William Hill to become the new Aston Villa manager, having been 10/1 at yesterday. Gerard Houllier has also had his odds slashed from 12/1 on Monday to 9/2. Long-time favourite and current caretaker, Kevin MacDonald is the 2/1 second favourite, having been odds-on to take the job yesterday. Sven Goran Eriksson is the 7/1 fourth favourite.

Having been seen as a relative outsider at the start of the week, Alan Curbishsley now finds himself at the top of a shortlist that the odds suggest includes just Gerard Houllier and Kevin MacDonald. The gamble we have seen over the last 24 hours seems to suggest that an announcement is imminent, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.
