A William Hill punter from Germany was celebrating after turning 0.66 (55p) into 16,024.80 (£13,354.22) after correctly predicting 11 draws over the weekend. The punter, from Goslar in Lower Saxony defied odds of over 24,280/1 to scoop his whopping windfall. The man, who wishes to remain anonymous, selected matches from across Europe, picking Austrian, English, French, German and Italian games to all result in a draw.

It is often said that draws are the hardest results to predict but this punter has managed to pick 11 in one weekend which is almost unheard of, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Nothing Fishy About Grimsby Punters £100k Win

September 26, 2011 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments 163, Crawley, Football Accumulator, Gillingham, Greenside, Grimsby, Joe Crilly, London N22, Macclesfield, Manchester United, Morecambe, Mystery Man, Punter, Sheffield United, Sheffield Utd, Sheffield Wednesday, Shrewsbury, Tranmere, William Hill, Williamhill

A Grimsby based Manchester United fan was celebrating this weekend and not just because his side managed to maintain their 100% record in the Premier League but because he won over £100,000 from an £8 bet with William Hill. The mystery man, who wishes to remain anonymous, selected 12 sides to win on his football accumulator and all duly obliged. The 37 year old punter who regularly has an accumulator at the weekend, had never hit the jackpot until Saturday and scooped £101,647.97 when Leeds, Crawley, Hearts, Tranmere, Hull, Peterborough, Sheffield Wednesday, Morecambe, Shrewsbury, Macclesfield, Gillingham and Sheffield Utd all won.

It is incredibly difficult to pick even one winner, so to have 12 sides all come in is quite a feat and one that was priced at over 12,700/1, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly. With a haul of over £100,000, he could spend the rest of the season following United home and away.

Winning bet:

£8 12 fold

7/10 Leeds
4/6 Crawley
3/4 Hearts
21/20 Tranmere
5/4 Hull
11/10 Peterborough
6/4 Sheffield Wednesday
9/4 Morecambe
17/10 Shrewsbury
8/5 Macclesfield
6/5 Gillingham
5/6 Sheffield United

Gareth, Gunn And Sven – Will They Stay Or Will They Go ?

August 16, 2009 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Ben Foster, Community Shield, Different Reasons, Drubbing, Edwin Van Der Saar, Fb, Gillingham, Graham Sharpe, Manchester United, Michael Owen, Millwall, Minute Odds, Notts County, Rochdale, Sheffield United, Southgate, Team Mate, Van Der Saar, William Hill, World Cup Finals, World Cup Squad

WILL WIN, LOSE AND DRAW BOSSES STAY AT CLUBS ALL SEASON ?
THREE HIGH profile bosses had very different starts to the season. Gareth Southgate’s Middlesbro draw with Sheffield United and fans appeared less than impressed; Norwich’s Bryan Gunn oversaw a humiliating 1-7 defeat to local rivals Colchester; while Sven Goran Erikkson saw Notts County start off with a 5-0 drubbing of Bradford.
William Hill now make Southgate 5/6 to survive, 5/6 to leave by last day season; Gunn 4/9 to go, 13/8 to survive; Sven 6/4 to leave, 1/2 to stay.
‘These three managers are all under pressure for very different reasons but their futures are fascinatingly poised. Southgate seems finally to have used up his goodwill with supporters; Norwich’s result will haunt them for decades and heap pressure on one of the most popular figures ever associated with the club while the more successful County are the more likely bigger clubs are to come courting Sven’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

LATEST WILLIAM HILL LEAGUE ONE ODDS….5/2 Leeds; 7/1 Charlton; 8/1 Huddersfield; 10 MK Dons; 12 Norwich; 14 Brighton; Colchester; Millwall; 16 Brentford; 25 Southampton; 33 Gillingham.

LEAGUE TWO…3/1 Notts Co; 6/1 Rotherham; 10/1 Bournemouth; 11/1 Shrewsbury; 14 Bury; Northampton; Rochdale.

WILL UNITED BEN START ENGLAND’S FIRST WORLD CUP FINALS MATCH?
WITH BEN FOSTER likely to get the nod to replace injured Edwin van der Saar in Manchester United’s goal, William Hill are offering him at 7/1 to start in goal for England when they play their first match of the 2010 World Cup finals.Team-mate Michael Owen is 6/4 with Hills to get in the World Cup squad, 1/2 not to, and both will hope to do well in the Community Shield this weekend for which Hills make Chelsea 8/11 favourites to lift the trophy with United at Even money.
Owen is 7/4 to score in 90mins play, 6/1 to open the scoring and 10/1 to net two or more.
90 minute odds: 17/10 United; 2/1 draw; 7/5 Chelsea.
