Avram Slashed To Be Out Of Job Next

Manchester City beat Fulham on Sunday to ease the pressure on manager, Roberto Mancini. He is priced at 5/2, eased from 2/1 to be the next manager to get the boot. Carlo Ancelotti was the big mover this weekend , he was priced at 25/1 at the start of the weekend to be the next manager to leave his job, however, two straight defeats have seen his odds slashed to 10/1. Avram Grant is odds on to be the next manager to go at 4/5. For no manager to go before the end of the season is 33/1.

Despite their somewhat sketchy form of late, Chelsea are the 11/10 favourites to win the league followed by 9/4 Manchester United, who are also priced at 20/1 to remain unbeaten all season.

William Hill Football Odds:

Next Manager To Leave Their Job: 4/5 Avram Grant; 5/2 Roberto Mancini; 9/1 Roy Hodgson; 10/1 Roberto Martinez; 10/1 Mick McCarthy; 10/1 Carlo Ancelotti; 12/1 Chris Hughton; 14/1 Ian Holloway; 18/1 Mark Hughes; 25/1 Sam Allardyce; 25/1 Gerard Houllier; 33/1 Roberto Di Matteo; 33/1 Steve Bruce; 33/1 Alex McLeish; 33/1 Owen Coyle; 33/1 Tony Pulis; 33/1 No Manager To Go; 40/1 David Moyes; 40/1 Arsene Wenger; 66/1 Harry Redknapp; 66/1 Sir Alex Ferguson

Hughes Laughing Now: 2/1 City Fail To Score Once More

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

Sunday’s big game sees Mark Hughes facing his former cohorts with current team, Fulham. Hughes was sacked by Manchester City just over a year ago, with his City side leading the Premier League in draws. His Fulham team are in the exact same position this season and William Hill are offering 21/10 that Sunday’s match ends in a stalemate. With tempers likely to flare, Hughes is 33/1 to get sent to the stands.

City have failed to score in their last three Premiership games and Hills are offering 2/1 that they fail to do so once more at Craven Cottage. Should City score, it will most likely be Carlos Tevez who gets on the score sheet, having score seven of 15 goals. He is priced at 5/1 to score two or more goals with Hills.

“Mark Hughes will be desperate to get one over on his former employers but the odds certainly do not point to a classic. The most exciting action may possibly be seen on the sidelines,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Sunday Football Odds:

11/8 Blackburn; 21/10 Aston Villa; 21/10 Draw
21/10 Fulham; 7/5 Man City; 21/10 Draw

33/1 Mark Hughes gets sent to the stand
5/1 Carlos Tevez scores two or more goals

Unlikely Comeback For 33/1 Spurs…only £200 Staked By Far Sighted Punters

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

Spurs completed an unlikely comeback and were as long as 33/1 with William Hill to win the game at half time. In a game which attracted over £80,000 of in play betting, only £200 was staked on Spurs when they were 2-0 down.

Spurs boss, Harry Redknapp, is now the clear favourite for the England manager’s job, when it becomes available, at 2/1.

“At 2-0 Spurs looked dead and buried and this was reflected by our punters. Less than 1% of the game’s turnover was staked on them at half time. ‘Arry really turned the game around and he is the front-runner to be the next England manager,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

‘This weekend may show whether Chelsea are genuinely vulnerable or that the blip against Sunderland was a one-off and the rest are playing for second place’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

You Bet Fabio Won’t Be ‘cap’ Ello Next Time Out!!

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

6/1 England boss to be capped against Wales……….
YOU BET FABIO WON’T BE ‘CAP’ ELLO NEXT TIME OUT!!

WILLIAM HILL are offering odds of 6/1 that Fabio Capello will again be seen wearing his England baseball-style cap when England play their next Euro qualifier against Wales. ‘Even Mr Capello, with his somewhat limited understanding of the English language will have realised that some of the headlines referring to his choice of headwear and the outcome of the game were not complimentary’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. ‘He may have the power to hand out caps to his players, but one suspects he won’t be planning on keeping them as a feature of his own matchday attire’

AND Hills believe that the poor result against a side which appears to have improved more since the World Cup than England, has made Fabio a10/1 shot to quit his job before the end of this year. ‘He was 33/1 to go before the end of this year when the England-France game kicked off, but he might just decide to give it up as a bad job after the result and the reaction of the Wembley crowd.’

MEANWHILE, Hills have lengthened their odds for England to both HOST the 2018 World Cup, and WIN the tournament, from 14/1 to 20/1.’Last night’s result did not point to a glorious England revival any time soon’ said Sharpe.

HARRY REDKNAPP is 2/1 favourite with William Hill to be the next permanent England manager – and Hills have shortened their odds that the next incumbent will be an Englishman from 4/9 to 4/11 following the France result, and now offer 2/1 that it will be another ‘foreigner’ or non Englishman.’The mood of the nation seems to be that the job should go to an Englishman’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

William Hill England Odds:

When will Capello leave?:
2010…10/1
2011…4/1
2012….4/11
2013 or later….11/2

CAPELLO TO WEAR ENGLAND BASEBALL CAP V WALES……6/1 YES; 1/12 NO

WILLIAM HILL- Next England boss…2/1 Redknapp; 9/2 O’Neill; 5 Pearce; 11/2 Hodgson; 10 Bruce; 12 Allardyce; 14 Shearer; 16 Hiddink; Holloway; 20 Beckham; Curbishley; Mourinho; Wenger. Others on request.

William Hill offer 11/8 that just THREE or fewer of the team that started against France line up for the Three Lions next competitive fixture against Wales.
Andy Carroll is 5/2 to start the game against Wales (2/7 not to). He is 50/1 to be the leading scorer in Euro 2012.

HILLS DO NOT BELIEVE MANY OF WEDNESDAY NIGHT’S STARTERS WILL DO SO FOR THE WALES GAME:

How many starters v France will start v Wales?:
3 or less…..11/8
4 or 5………11/10
6 or 7………7/2

England 6/4 To Win World Cup Bid

ENGLAND 6/4 TO GET 2018 WORLD CUP

AFTER receiving a positive report from FIFA inspectors, England are 6/4 second favourites with William Hill to win the bid to stage the 2018 World Cup.
Russia are currently 10/11 favourites with Hills, but haven’t fared so positively in the reports, while Spain and Portugal’s joint bid did well and is 7/2 third favourite, with Holland/Belgium’s bid the 50/1 outsiders.
‘With rumours and counter-rumours swirling around this has become a very volatile market, but England’s positive report will have calmed some of the nerves which seem to have been engulfing their bid team’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

You Bet: England Will Ring Changes After Carroll’s Debut Fizzles Out

You Bet: England Will Ring Changes After Carroll’s Debut Fizzles Out

England had the better of the closing stages against France, but could not overcome the two goal deficit that the visitors had amassed by the 55th minute. With a relatively untried formula and team on show tonight, William Hill believe that the England team that lines up against Wales will be a lot more recognisable and offer 11/10 that either four or five of the team that started against France line up for the Three Lions next competitive fixture. Hills offer 11/8 that three or less take to the field at the Millenium Stadium.

Andy Carroll showed glimpses of his quality in the 70 minutes that he was on although he is 2/7 to fail to start the game against Wales. He is 50/1 to be the leading scorer in Euro 2012.

Despite the minor setback of his first defeat at Wembley, Hills are odds on, at 4/11, that Capello leaves his post in 2012 and he is 10/1 to leave before the end of the year.

“Tonight’s game was not the most enjoyable of games to watch and with such an inexperienced team, it was always going to be difficult, however, Capello will surely ring the changes by the time the Wales game comes around and his side are still odds on to qualify for the Euro’s,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill England Odds:

When will Capello leave:
2010 10
2011 4
2012 4/11
2013 or later 11/2

Andy Carroll to start v Wales:

2/7 No
5/2 Yes

Andy Carroll to be top scorer in Euro 2012: 50/1

How many starters v France will start v Wales:

3 or less 11/8
4 or 5 11/10
6 or 7 7/2
8 or more 20/1

Euro 2012 Qualifying Group G: 1/5 England; 7/1 Montenegro; 12/1 Bulgaria; 12/1 Switzerland; 100/1 Wales

Evens Another Prem Boss To Go On Or Before Xmas Day

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

UNHAPPY XMAS FOR AVRAM- OR ANYONE ELSE?

WITH Avram Grant apparently safe in his job at West Ham at least until Christmas, William Hill have lengthened their odds about him being the next Prem boss to go from 11/8 favourite to 7/4, and Roberto Mancini is now clear favourite at 13/8, after Hills took a flurry of three figure bets for him to go; with Roy Hodgson 7/2; and Messrs Holloway, Hughton and McCarthy all 12/1 shots.
‘Avram’s somewhat grudging temporary vote of confidence may just leave time for someone else to beat him to the exit at their club’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Grant is 11/8 with Hills still to be West Ham boss on the first day of next season, 8/15 not to be.

WILLIAM HILL OFFER EVENS THAT ONE OR MORE PREMIER LEAGUE BOSSES IN THEIR JOBS TODAY WILL LEAVE THEIR CLUBS ON OR BEFORE CHRISTMAS DAY, AND 8/11 THAT NONE WILL DO SO.
