DROG ON HIS WAY? YOU CAN BET ON THAT………….

WITH REPORTS suggesting that Drogba is unsettled at Chelsea, William Hill are quoting him at 13/8 to have left the club by the first day of next season, while his under-pressure manager Carlo Ancelotti is a 5/6 chance to leave by then. ‘Everyone agrees Chelsea have an ageing side and the break up has to begin sooner or later, and if they win nothing this season it may well be sooner. The arrival of Torres could be advance warning of a changing of the old guard’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills offer 1/10 that Chelsea will fail to lift a trophy this season.

Double Hat-trick 33/1 As Dimmi Bags Landmark Goals…tractor Boys Keane To ‘swich Manager

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

Double Hat-Trick 33/1 As Dimmi Bags Landmark Goals

Dimitar Berbatov joined a select group of strikers who have bagged five goals in just one Premier League game and William Hill are offering 14/1 that five or more are scored by any player this season. For any player to bag a double hat-trick or more this season is 33/1 with Hills. Berbatov is now the 7/2 joint favourite with Carlos Tevez to be the Premier League’s leading scorer.

“Berbatov was absolutely outstanding on Saturday and his achievement came just a year and three days after Jermaine Defoe scored five against Wigan. With the ever increasing importance being placed on goal difference, it could well be sooner rather than later that we see a double hat-trick,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Tractor Boys Keane To ‘Swich Manager

Roy Keane is facing a difficult task winning friends at Ipswich after his side slumped to a disappointing derby defeat. William Hill are now offering 1/7 that he has left his position by the start of next season. The Tractor Boys are facing two difficult tasks this week in the shape of West Brom and Swansea and Keane is 7/2 to have gone by midnight on Sunday which, coincidentally is the same price as Ipswich losing both games.

“Despite a promising start to the season, Keane’s side appear to have been treading water of late. By his own admission, he said he would stand down after two years if he did not reach the Premier League and it looks like he will have to honour that promise,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Football Specials:

14/1 Five Goal Premier League Salvo scored this season (five or more)
33/1 Premier League Double Hat-Trick scored this season (five or more)

Premier League Leading Scorer: 7/2 Carlos Tevez; 7/2 Dimitar Berbatov; 9/2 Didier Drogba; 7/1 Fernando Torres; 12/1 Andrew Carroll; 14/1 Darren Bent; 16/1 Marouane Chamakh; 16/1 Florent Malouda; 20/1 Wayne Rooney; 20/1 Asamoah Gyan; 25/1 Nicolas Anelka; 25/1 Rafael Van der Vaart; 25/1 Johan Elmander; 33/1 BAR

1/7 Keane is gone by first game of next season (4/1 he is still at Ipswich)
7/2 Keane has gone by midnight on Sunday
7/2 Ipswich to lose against West Brom AND Swansea

WITH THE season now well underway, William Hill have opened their book on who will win the PFA Player of the Year Award and have installed Didier Drogba as 9/2 favourite. ‘This looks like being a very open year, with some regularly fancied players such as Wayne Rooney and Steven Gerrard having made only minimal early impact, while some younger contenders like Joe Hart and Andy Carroll are already threatening to gatecrash the party’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

MAN CITY are now 13/2 to win the Premier League title – and 11/8 to finish above United. ‘City’s display against Liverpool suggested they will be serious title contenders and that United may be hard-pressed to finish above them this season’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
But Hills now make Liverpoool odds-against at 7/4 to finish in the top four this season, and 2/5 not to. ‘All the indications are that Roy Hodgson is going to have his work cut out to restore Liverpool to the top four’ added Sharpe.
