TORRES 8/1 NOT TO SCORE ALL SEASON FOR CHELSEA

FERNANDO TORRES IS AN 8/1 CHANCE WITH WILLIAM HILL TO FAIL TO SCORE FOR CHELSEA THIS SEASON. And Hills quote him at 9/2 not to score in any of his next five games, beginning with Wigan at the weekend – when he is odds on finally to get off the mark for the Blues. ‘Torres on-going goal drought is becoming a bigger story the longer it lasts – and attracting more bets every time he draws another blank’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on who will be the next Premier League player banned for swearing during a match – and have installed Joey Barton, the self-styled midfield maestro, as their 6/1 favourite, with Wayne Rooney a 15/2 chance. ‘You’d think Premier League players would learn from Rooney’s punishment – but you have to think that they’ll soon forget and one of them will fall foul of the rule again, quite possibly Wayne himself’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Chelsea Getting Ever Closer…but When Will Torres Score?

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

Fernando Torres failed to find the net again although William Hill are offering 4/5 that he bags his first Chelsea goal at Stamford Bridge against Copenhagen next week. 7/1 is on offer for him to fail to find the net for the next five matches. Defeat left Blackpool dangling perilously over the relegation trapdoor and thus increased the probability of star man, Charlie Adam, leaving the club. Hills are offering 13/8 that he leaves for Tottenham in the Summer, while 5/2 is on offer for him to join the Kenny Dalglish revolution at Anfield.

“Torres looks more worth 50p than £50 million at the moment, but he is a quality forward but we are expecting him to take us for a small fortune when he does eventually score,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “Possibly staring with Copenhagen next week.”

Blackpool are only two points off relegation now and Hills have them as Even money (from 6/5) to be relegated at the end of the season, while Chelsea on the other hand have closed the gap on Manchester United and have been cut from 14/1 to 7/1 to retain their Premier League crown. “Chelsea are well and truly over their slump…write them off at your peril!”

Which Club Will Charlie Adam Be At On First Day Of Next Season: 13/8 Tottenham; 5/2 Liverpool; 5/1 Blackpool; 10/1 Manchester United; 16/1 German Club; 20/1 Spanish Club; 25/1 Italian Club

Fernando Torres First Chelsea Goal: 4/5 Copenhagen; 5/2 Manchester City; 5/1 Stoke; 8/1 Wigan; 12/1 West Brom; 7/1 None of the next five

Premier League Outright: 8/11 Manchester United; 7/4 Arsenal; 7/1 Chelsea; 25/1 Manchester City; 200/1 Tottenham

Premier League Relegation: 2/7 Wigan; 1/1 Blackpool; 6/5 Wolves; 11/8 West Ham; 7/4 West Brom; 9/4 Birmingham; 3/1 Blackburn; 10/1 BAR

Fa Cup Flop Sees Moyes Cut For Chop

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

Everton’s defeat against Reading has left the Toffees with nothing to play for this season and has prompted a significant gamble on David Moyes to be the next manager to leave their club. He has been cut from 7/1 to 9/2 with William Hill.

“Moyes is very restricted at Everton and with nothing left to play for, he could well walk before he is pushed,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Chelsea secured a vital home win against Manchester United on Tuesday and eased the pressure on their manager, Carlo Ancelotti. He is priced at 9/2 (out from 7/2 before Utd game) with William Hill to be the next Premier League manager to leave their position. Should Ancelotti go, Hills are offering 15/8 that Guus Hiddink replaces him as the next permanent Chelsea manager while Didier Deschamps is 7/1. Frank Rijkaard and Jose Mourinho are both 8/1.

Their big money signing, Fernando Torres failed to score again, however and Hills are offering 10/1 that he fails to score in any of the next five games, although he is 4/7 to bag a goal against Blackpool on the 5th March. Chelsea are also in from 20/1 to 14/1 to win the Premier League although Manchester United are 8/13 favourites.

“Chelsea have often flattered to deceive this season, often recording a good win before falling back into poor form, but the win against United is the kind of result that could save their season and perhaps even Ancelotti’s job,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Premier League Odds:

Outright: 8/13 Manchester United; 13/8 Arsenal; 14/1 Chelsea; 40/1 Manchester City; 100/1 Tottenham

When Will Torres score for Chelsea:
4/7 Blackpool (a)
9/4 Copenhagen (h)
10/1 Manchester City (h)
11/1 Stoke (a)
16/1 Wigan (h)
10/1 Fail to score in any of these games

6th Premier League Manager to Leave: 6/5 No manager to leave before the end of the season; 6/4 Avram Grant; 9/2 Carlo Ancelotti; 9/2 David Moyes; 7/1 Steve Kean (others on request)

Next Permanent Chelsea Manager: 15/8 Guus Hiddink; 7/1 Didier Deschamps; 8/1 Frank Rijkaard; 8/1 Jose Mourinho; 10/1 Pep Guardiola; 12/1 Martin O’Neill; 14/1 Jurgen Klinsmann; 16/1 David Moyes; 16/1 Rafael Benitez; 20/1 Fabio Capello; 20/1 Roberto Di Matteo; 20/1 Gianfranco Zola; 20/1 Gus Poyet; 20/1 Laurent Blanc; 20/1 Marcello Lippi; 20/1 Steve Clarke; 25/1 BAR

Chelsea secured a vital home win against Manchester United and eased the somewhat considerable pressure on their manager, Carlo Ancelotti. He is priced at 4/1 (out from 7/2 before Utd game) with William Hill to be the next Premier League manager to leave their position. Their big money signing, Fernando Torres failed to score again, however and Hills are offering 10/1 that he fails to score in any of the next five games, although he is 4/7 to bag a goal against Blackpool on the 5th March. Chelsea are also in from 20/1 to 14/1 to win the Premier League although Manchester United are 8/13 favourites.

“Chelsea have got it all to do, but this result will undoubtedly boost confidence at Stamford Bridge and a belated title push may well be on the cards,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Premier League Odds:

Outright: 8/1 Manchester United; 13/8 Arsenal; 14/1 Chelsea; 40/1 Manchester City; 100/1 Tottenham

From The Sublime To The Ridiculous…25/1 Ten Or Fewer Prem Goals This Weekend

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

Following a record breaking weekend, William Hill are offering 25/1 that the Premier League comes down to earth with a bang with just 0-10 goals scored. Hills are 2/5 that 21-30 goals are scored. Last weekend saw 43 goals scored and Hills are offering 25/1 that this impressive total is bettered this weekend.

“There were many factors involved in such a record breaking weekend and the odds suggest that a semblance of normality will return to the Premier League come this weekend’s fixtures,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Despite all the goals at the weekend, one man who failed to find the net was Fernando Torres although Hills are offering 10/11 that he manages to get himself on the score sheet for his new club. He is 1/3 to start Chelsea’s game against Fulham but 2/5 to be subbed off. His former manager Kenny Dalglish is now priced at 1/7 to secure the Liverpool manager’s position on a permanent basis.

Total Premier League Goals Sat-Mon: 25/1 0-10; 10/3 11-20; 2/5 21-30; 11/2 31-40; 20/1 Over 40

25/1 Over 43 goals

Will Torres…Start 1/3; Score 10/11; Get Subbed Off 2/5

Where Will Liverpool Finish: 7/1 1st-4th; 1/8 5th-10th; 11th-17th 8/1; 18th-19th 100/1; 150/1 Bottom

Kenny Dalglish to be given the Liverpool manager job on permanent basis: 1/7 Yes; 4/1 No
