BETTING ON BECKS TO BOOST WORLD CUP BID

WITH DAVID BECKHAM set to join the team handing over England’s hefty bid to stage the 2018 World Cup in Zurich on Friday, William Hill make England odds-on favourites to win the right to host the competition, at 10/11. ‘Having not staged the tournament since 1966 – which will be over half a century ago by 2018 – there is a strong feeling that it would be appropriate to return here sooner rather than later, and the betting reflects that’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills also offer 4/1 Spain/Portugal joint bid; 9/2 Russia; 8/1 Australia; 8/1 Holland/Belgium joint bid; 33/1 USA; 66/1 Indonesia.

Becks Out ? So, Who Goes Instead ?

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

WITH BECKS MISSING, WHO WILL MAKE ENGLAND SQUAD?

David Beckham’s misfortune will be good news for one or two other players who will now have an enhanced opportunity of making the final England World Cup squad of 23 – and Hills believe that Joe Cole and Adam Johnson in particular could benefit, shortening them from 6/4 to 11/8 and 4/1 to 3/1 respectively to make the squad. ‘Competition was already fierce for that place on the right and it was by no means a certainty that Beckham would have gone, even though he was a 1/6 chance to do so, but there are several players who, if they stay fit, could yet have every chance of forcing their way into the squad.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Yes No
Aaron Lennon 1/2 6/4
Theo Walcott 2/7 5/2
Joe Cole 11/8 8/15
S W Phillips 4/9 13/8
Adam Johnson 3/1 2/9

*********************************WILLIAM HILL CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SPECIALS:
PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE PLAY OFFS A NON STARTER? YOU BET….
BOOKMAKERS William Hill are offering 9/2 that the Premier League WILL introduce a play off to determine who gets the fourth Champions League place, during the 2010/11 season – but offer 1/8 that they will NOT. ‘This may seem an attractive idea in theory, but could result in a team finishing perhaps a dozen points or more away from an automatic Champions League place eventually qualifying for the tournament – what purpose would that serve? It would also mean more matches for tired players, which probably wouldn’t play well with international team bosses. Would Capello be happy if that system were in place this season and a key player was injured as a result? We think it is a non-starter.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
