RECORD £1 BILLION MEGA WORLD CUP GAMBLE

The excitement and interest surrounding the tournament is at an all time high – and it looks the most open World Cup for many years, which will enhance the betting interest’ said William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe.
‘We are desperate for England to do well – but not quite well enough to win as that would cost us millions’ said Sharpe, ‘Our ideal scenario is for England to reach the Final but lose on a penalty shoot-out. That is a 90/1 chance. But even if England do win – well, we’ve had forty three years since 1966 to save up!’

ENGLAND NOW WORLD CUP SECOND FAVOURITES

WILLIAM HILL have cut England from 6/1 third favourites to 5/1 second favourites following the World Cup draw. Spain are 4/1 favourites with Hills who also offer 11/2 Brazil; 9/1 Argentina; 11/1 France and Italy; 12/1 Germany; 14/1 Holland; 25/1 Portugal; 33/1 Chile and Ivory Coast; 50/1 Paraguay; 66/1 Cameroon;Ghana Mexico; Serbia and Uruguay; 80/1Nigeria and USA; 100/1 Australia; 125/1 Denmark and South Africa; 150/1 Greece and Switzerland; 200/1 S Korea and Slovenia; 250/1 Slovaki; Japan and Algeria; 750/1 Honduras; 1000/1 New Zealand; 2000/1 North Korea.
‘England have received a dream draw and have been promoted to second favourites’ said William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Hills have pushed England out from 9/4 to 5/2 and spokesman Graham Sharpe commented: ‘Richards’ resignation in itself is not a great cause for alarm, but it is symptomatic of the continuing unrest apparently surrounding the whole campaign which has only just been re-launched.

20/1 England To Play Brazil In World Cup Final

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

****************************************************WORLD CUP SPECIALS….BECKS……SHEFFIELD RIVALRY******************************************************

20/1 ENGLAND – BRAZIL IS WORLD CUP FINAL DRESS REHEARSAL!

WILLIAM HILL are offering 20/1 that England and Brazil, who play a weekend friendly, will meet again in the World Cup Final – and 3/1 that the two take each other on at any stage of the tournament. ‘England go into this match on good terms with themselves and as one of the countries qualifying in style for the final stages, so speculation about an England- Brazil Final may not be regarded as entirely unhinged!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
However, Hills still make Brazil 23/20 favourites to win the game, with England 2/1 and the draw 21/10. Brazil are Evens with Hills to go further than England in the World Cup, with Capello’s side 11/8 to do vice versa, and 4/1that both will be eliminated at the same stage. (3rd place play off to count if relevant).

IS BECKS NO-HOPES TO BEAT SHILTS?

DAVID BECKHAM’s absence from the squad for the Brazil game is a blow to his chances of ovrtaking Peter Shilton’s record number of caps, and William Hill have pushed him out from 3/1 to 5/1 as a consequence. ‘He now has virtually no chance of catching Shilton during the World Cup, and his best hope may be to get so close that the FA take pity on him and organise a series of friendlies to take him past Shilts. Failing that, if he does play well during the World Cup, Capello may keep him involved for the Euro qualification campaign – always assuming that the boss is still there after the World Cup’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

And Hills make United 1/6 to finish above 7/2 shots Wednesday in the table this season. ‘There are rumblings of discontent at both Sheffield clubs and both bosses are looking vulnerable at the moment’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
