Dynamic Qualities

GOALS GALORE AT WORLD CUP? YOU BET!

WITH THE official World Cup ball already causing controversy over its aero-dynamic qualities, William Hill are quoting odds that the record total of goals in a 32 country World Cup finals wil be beaten. The previous record total was 171 goals in 1998 and Hills offer 6/4 that 172 or more will be scored this time round (including extra time but excluding penalty shoot-out goals), 1/2 that 171 or fewer will be scored.’Every ball which appears at a tournament seems to create some sort of panic amongst keepers, concerned that it will make them look incompetent – but they’re probably getting their excuses in early if truth were told!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
And Hills have also opened a book on how many goals England will score during the tournament, and offer:
0…..80/1 1…..50/1 2……33/1 3………20/1 4…….16/1 5…….14/1 6…….12/1 7……10/1 8……9/1 9……8/1 10…….13/2 11……..9/2
12…………11/2 13 or more….10/3

Keeper backed to play longest:
WILL FABIO GO GREEN?

ROBERT GREEN, once the 11/2 outsider to start in goal for England against USA is now down to 6/4 to do so with William Hill who have lengthened David James from 4/6 to 8/11 favourite while Joe Hart is now the 6/1 outsider.
Hills have also cut Green from 12/1 to 10/1 to play the greatest number of minutes of any player for England during the tournament, a market in which Ashley Cole and John Terry are 9/2 joint favourites with Hills who also offer:5/1 G Johnson, 11/2 David James, 6/1 R Ferdinand, 13/2 F Lampard, 9/1 S Gerrard, 10/1 R Green, 12/1 G Barry, 12/1 W Rooney, 16/1Joe Hart, James Milner, 20/1 L King, 20/1 M Carrick, 25/1 J Cole, 33/1 J Carragher, 33/1 S Warnock, 40/1 A Lennon, 40/1 E Hesky, 40/1 P Crouch, 66/1 M Upson, 66/1 S Wright-Phillips, 100/1 J Defoe
