Future Bright For Hodgson And When Will He Lose?

England defeated Italy although neither side were at their strongest a fact highlighted by the 11/8 offered by William Hill that only four or five of Wednesdays starting XI line up for Englands first WC qualifying game. Roy Hodgsons unbeaten record remains intact and William Hill offer 5/4 that he does not taste defeat until after 2012 has finished.

The match against Italy showed us that the future is bright for England but the odds would suggest a return to a more traditional starting XI once qualifiers start, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Jack Butland became Englands youngest ever goalkeeper and he is 2/1 to play Premier League football this season for any side (4/11 he does not).

Jack Butland to play in a Premier League match this season: 4/11 no; 2/1 yes

How many of tonights starting XI will start Englands first qualifier: 8/1 0-3; 11/8 4-5; 13/8 6-7; 7/2 8-9; 14/1 10-11

England next defeat: 9/1 Moldova (a); 9/2 Ukraine (h); 150/1 San Marino (h); 5/2 Poland (a); 11/4 Sweden (a); 5/4 unbeaten at the end of 2012

With rumours persisting about whether or not England striker Andy Carroll has a future at Liverpool under Brendan Rodgers, William Hill have quoted the big striker to scorer fewer than nine goals in the Premier League this term. West Ham are rumoured to have agreed a loan deal but Newcastle could also be in the running. He is 7/4 to score between nine and 13 goals and 7/4 for more than 13.

Euros winner: 7/4 Germany; 7/4 Spain; 6/1 Portugal; 9/1 England; 11/1 Italy

Top goalscorer: 15/8 Mario Gomez; 2/1 Cristiano Ronaldo; 9/2 Fernando Torres; 20/1 Cesc Fabregas; 25/1 Wayne Rooney; 25/1 Xabi Alonso; 40/1 BAR

8/1 Rooney To Have Luscious Locks Shorn For Ukraine

June 18, 2012 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Banter, England, Excess Hair, Footy, Group Game, Hair Transplant, Joe Crilly, Luscious Locks, Match, Spokesman, Tuft, Ukraine, Wayne Rooney, William Hill, Williamhill

Much has been made in the media of Wayne Rooneys new look (not all positive) and William Hill are offering 8/1 that he will line up for Englands last group game with the excess hair on top of his head lopped off to match the sides.

Rooney has gone for the not quite so traditional (extremely) short back and sides and, given the nature of football banter, he may well be forced to do the same to the tuft on the top of his head, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly. It is nice to see the hair transplant has worked so well, however.

8/1 Rooney to start Ukraine match with top of hair matching the sides.

4/1 PRE-MATCH HANDSHAKES TO BE SCRAPPED

WILLIAM HILL are offering 4/1 that pre-match handshakes will be scrapped officially in Premier League matches before the start of next season.
‘Following the latest pre-match handshake debacle there will be pressure to scrap them completely’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. Hills are 1/7 that they remain an official part of pre-match proceedings next season.
Hills had offered 1/5 that Evra and Suarez WOULD shake hands, and 10/3 that they would not. ‘Punters called the pre-match handshake wrong on this occasion’ said Sharpe.
After Rio Ferdinand refused to shake hands with Suarez, Hills are offering 11/4 that he and John Terry will NOT start in the same Euro 12 side for England.
