Cornish Punter Out To Leave Bookies Pasty Faced With £100,000 Spurs Gamble
WILL BOOKIES BE PASTY-FACED AFTER £100,000 SPURS TITLE GAMBLE?
A CORNISH Spurs’ fan has staked £2500 on Harry Redknapp’s side to win the Premiership title at 40/1, causing William Hill to cut their odds to 25/1 as a result.
‘Harry Redknapp has Spurs playing well but few people would be willing to risk this sort of amount on them at this early stage of the season, so it is a bold wager’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.’And if it comes off we’ll be pasty-faced at having to pay him £100,000′!
Hills have cut Manchester United from 10/3 to 11/4 second favourites for the title after their hammering of Wigan. Chelsea are 13/8 favourites, with Liverpool 9/2; Arsenal 5/1 and Man City 10/1.
CITY are 8/11 favourites in the Without Big 4 market with Hills who also offer 15/8 Spurs; 8 Everton, Villa; 20 Fulham; 25 Sunderland; West Ham.
