Bookies William Hill were celebrating the late draw at Arsenal in what was a £500,000 plus turnaround for the bookies. Despite not playing Man Utd are 1/8 from 1/6 to win the Premiership, with Arsenal out to 8/1 from 6/1. Arsenal are 11/10 to finish second, with Chelsea 6/4.

“With less than a minute to go we were in a losing position but the Kuyt penalty sparked a massive £500,000 plus Turnaround. We cannot see anyone catching United and at this rate Arsenal might even fail to come second,” said Hill’s spokesman Rupert Adams.

MAN UTD TOTAL POINTS: 9/4 78 or less, 7/4 79-81, 6/5 82 or more

Man Utd Winning Margin: 5/1 1 to 3, 9/4 4 to 6, 9/4 7 to 9, 11/4 10 or more, 50/1 Goal Difference, 9/2 Not win it

City 4/11 To Win FA CUP: Man U Shorten For Premiership!

Hills rate Manchester City as their 4/11 red hot favourites to beat Stoke in the FA Cup final, with Stoke offered at 2/1. “Stoke were more impressive in their semi final but we expect big spending city to attract all the big bets for the final, in what will be a one sided betting heat!” said Hill’s spokesman Rupert Adams.

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

Scotland Red Hot Favourites Against Liechtenstein

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

Scotland are the 1/14 favourites at William Hill to win against Liechtenstein who are priced at 16/1 to win. The last player to score a hat-trick for Scotland was Colin Stein in 1970. Any Scottish player to break that duck is priced at 8/1. Liechtenstein’s top scorer is Mario Frick, who plays for St Gallen, and he is priced at 12/1 to score at any time during the game.

Scotland are 5/1 to qualify for the 2012 European Championships but with Spain and the Czech Republic also in their group they face an uphill task. Spain are 1/9 to win the group and the Czechs are 11/2 to win. Scotland are 12/1 third favourites.

“The odds suggest that Scotland should stroll to victory and the hosts will be keen to give their goal difference a boost at Liechtenstein’s expense,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on who will be top of the Premier League table on Monday night after the current round of matches has been completed – and make Chelsea 2/9 favourites to stay at the head of affairs. ‘With unusual results not unknow at this stage of the season Blackpool will be optimistic that they can pull off another shock at Arsenal and go one better than their current position’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

25/1 Blackpool Winner……1/8 English Boss For England…robertos Out ?

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

********************************PREMIER LEAGUE / ENGLAND SPECIALS*************************************************************

ODDS ON NEXT ENGLAND BOSS WILL BE ENGLISH

WILLIAM HILL have cut their odds for the next England manager to be English from 1/3 to 1/8 after an FA spokesman confirmed that they planned to appoint an English manager next time round. Hills offer 9/2 that the next appointee will not be English.
‘It is odd that the FA should be making such announcements at a time when they are also apparently confirming their confidence in Fabio who could, in theory, stay around until 2012’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills have made Harry Redknapp 9/4 favourite to be next England boss – with David Beckham at 20/1.

NEXT FULL TIME ENGLAND MANAGER…WILLIAM HILL……9/4 Redknapp; 7/2 Pearce; 6 Hodgson; 8 O’Neill; 11 Allardyce; 14 Bruce- Hughes; Mourinho; 20 Beckham; Shearer; Wenger.

BLACKPOOL FANS ROCK BOOKIES WITH 25/1 WINNER

WILLIAM HILL have paid out to punters who took their odds of 25/1 that Blackpool would top the Premier League at somestage this season after they led the way on goal difference after their 4-0 win at Wigan and before Chelsea hammered WBA 6-0.
‘Blackpool fans are collecting their first cash of the season after taking 25/1 that their side would top the League – we’re also concerned that so many of them backed Blackpool to WIN the League that we have had to slash their odds to 2000/1 and we already face a £5m loss – if they carry on as they have started we may start to get a little nervous!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

YOU BET ROBERTOS ENDANGERED SPECIES IN PREMIER LEAGUE?

WILLIAM HILL are currently quoting the three Premier League managers named Roberto as their three favourites to be the next manager to leave their club – with Martinez clear 5/2 favourite following Wigan’s humiliating defeat to Blackpool, while Man C’s Mancini and West Brom’s Di Matteo are joint second favourites at 9/2.
‘The three are under pressure for different reasons but it is coincidental that they should all suddenly emerge as prime candidates for the chop after just one game’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
NEXT PREM BOSS TO GO…..WILLIAM HILL….5/2 Martinez; 9/2 Di Matteo; Mancini; 5 Hughton; 6 McLeish; 8 Bruce; Holloway; 12 Grant; 14 Allardyce; McCarthy; 20 Coyle; Hughes.
