FABIO PHOTO RANT SPARKS QUIT GAMBLE

‘Fabio’s rant demonstrated the pressure he is obviously feeling, as have one or two of his touchline outbursts in recent games. Given his evident uncertainty about deciding who will be starting in goal, some punters are taking the hint that should England perform disappointingly Fabio may well react explosively and walk away from the job in frustration’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Punters Go Nuts For Brazil

June 7, 2010 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments 163, Argentina, Bet, Bets, Brazil Nuts, Contenders, Euro 2008, Favourites, Fb, Graham Sharpe, Holland, Italy, Lancashire, Lytham St Annes, No Doubt, Punter, Six Figure, Spain, Spokesman, William Hill, World Cup Odds

YOU BET PUNTERS ARE NUTS FOR BRAZIL

SPAIN are no longer clear favourites for the World Cup with William Hill for the first time since they won the Euro 2008 tournament after Hills reported support for Brazil and cut their odds from 9/2 to 4/1 to become joint favourites with Spain.
One William Hill client, from Lytham St Annes in Lancashire, has staked an £8824 double on Brazil winning the World Cup this year AND in 2014 – at odds of 16/1, which will win him £150,008 if it comes off. The same punter has also staked a £5173 double on Argentina to win this year – going on to Brazil to win in 2014 at odds of 28/1, also set to produce a return of £150,017.’The punter is clearly convinced that Brazil will win in 2014 and happy to wait until then to collect his six figure winnings’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills have also shortened Argentina from 7/1 to 13/2 after taking another five figure bet for them, and eased England out to 13/2 from 6/1.
A William Hill customer staked 10,000 euros on Germany at 14/1 as big bets began to be placed on the World Cup, which will become the biggest betting event ever with over £1billion gambled on its outcome. ‘There is no doubt that as the tournament gets nearer to kick off there will be hefty bets placed on all of the leading contenders’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM HILL LATEST WORLD CUP ODDS….4/1 Brazil; Spain; 13/2 Argentina; England; 9/1 Holland; 14/1 Germany; 16/1 Italy; 18/1 France.
