ROONEY 7/1 TO QUIT UNITED

WITH WAYNE ROONEY being left out of the Manchester United squad for the game against Everton and his off-the-pitch troubles showing no sings of dying down, William Hill are quoting odds of 7/1 that he leaves the club before the start of next season. ‘If Wayne feels that his off-the-field problems are costing him games it is not impossible that he might look to play abroad to escape his troubles.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

LAST UNBEATEN CLUB

Chelsea are 11/10 favourites to remain unbeaten longest in the Premier League with William Hill who also offer 6/4 Arsenal; 13/8 Man U; 33 Birmingham; Fulham. The market will be settled on the number of consecutive games unbeaten from the start of the season.

MANCINI ODDS-ON FOR CHOP BY END OF SEASON

MANCHESTER CITY boss Roberto Mancini is 8/11 NOT to see out the season in his post with William Hill who also make him 10/3 second favourite to be the next Premier League manager to leave his club, behind only 5/2 favourite Avram Grant in the betting. ‘Mancini knew what he was taking on when he accepted the job and a few more games without a win could see him on his way.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills have pushed City out to 12/1 to win the title and they are now 11/10 NOT to finish in the top four.

MANCINI to see out season as City boss?….Evens YES;;8/11 NO
CITY TO FINISH IN TOP FOUR?…..4/6 YES; 11/10 NO
NEXT PREM BOSS OUT…..5/2 Grant; 10/3 Mancini; 7/2 Martinez; 6 McLeish; 8 Hughton; Hughes; 10 Holloway.

CHELSEA 2/1 TO STAY TOP ALL SEASON

Chelsea are now Even money favourites to win the Premier League title with William Hill who also make them 2/1 to lead the division all season. ‘Chelsea already look as though they will be tough to peg back’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

HILLS….TO WIN PREM TITLE…..Evens Chelsea; 5/2 Man Utd; 9/2 Arsenal; 12/1 Man City; 20 Liverpool; 50 Spurs; 150 Villa; 200 Everton.

Scotland Red Hot Favourites Against Liechtenstein

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

Scotland are the 1/14 favourites at William Hill to win against Liechtenstein who are priced at 16/1 to win. The last player to score a hat-trick for Scotland was Colin Stein in 1970. Any Scottish player to break that duck is priced at 8/1. Liechtenstein’s top scorer is Mario Frick, who plays for St Gallen, and he is priced at 12/1 to score at any time during the game.

Scotland are 5/1 to qualify for the 2012 European Championships but with Spain and the Czech Republic also in their group they face an uphill task. Spain are 1/9 to win the group and the Czechs are 11/2 to win. Scotland are 12/1 third favourites.

“The odds suggest that Scotland should stroll to victory and the hosts will be keen to give their goal difference a boost at Liechtenstein’s expense,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Punters Lose Out As Pakistan Bowlers Bowl No No-balls

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

PUNTERS BOWLED OUT AS PAKISTAN BOWL NO NO-BALLS

Cricket punters who bet on the first ball Pakistan bowled to England in their T20 game on Sunday being a no-ball at odds of 10/1 were left out of pocket, and those who gambled on the Pakistan bowlers sending down at least one no-ball during the course of the match at odds of 4/7 were also losers.
‘We took the decision to accept bets on whether there would be any no balls bowled by the Pakistani bowlers and also on what would happen with the first ball they bowled.It was the first time we had opened such a book, but were confident there would be no problems in doing so.” said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe,’We were pleased with the punter response, which saw us winning 50% of the four figure sum we took on the no-ball at any time market, on which we accepted three three figure sums including one bet of £350. We also made a welcome 75% profit on the first-ball market – on which the 10/1 no-ball option attracted the most cash, while the 11/8 winner – runs to be scored off the ball – cost us almost nothing.So, all in all, we feel it was well worth opening the books, controversial though some considered the decision to be.’
Hills make England 4/9 favourites to win the next T20 against Pakistan who are 7/4 shots. ‘We have yet to decide whether to repeat the experiment for the next game’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
