YOU BET THEY THINK IT’S ROVERS AND OUT WITH THE WALLET!

WILLIAM HILL have cut their odds for Blackburn to sign one or more players costing over £5m in the January transfer window from 10/1 to 5/1. ‘It appears that a few punters believe the club’s claim that a fee of £6.2m for Ronaldinho is possible’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
However, Hills are also offer 11/10 that Blackburn will sign no one at all for money, or no more than £500,000; 10/1 that they spend between £500,001 – £1m; 9/2 Over £1m – £3m; 7/1 Over £3m – £5m.

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

CHELSEA DRAW IS MILLION POUND PLUS BOOST FOR WILLIAM HILL

WILLIAM HILL breathed a million pound-plus sigh of relief when Chelsea failed to beat Villa. ‘Thanks a million, Carlo – after Saturday’s punter-friendly results we had hordes of accumulators running on to a Chelsea victory, so their failure to win is worth a seven figure saving to us and probably an eight figure boost for the industry’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

CARLO MORE LIKELY TO SURVIVE THAN GERARD!

WILLIAM HILL make Carlo Ancelotti an 8/11 chance still to be Chelsea boss on the first day of next season, while Gerard Houllier is 5/6 still to be Villa manager – they are Even money and 5/6 respectively to have left their club by that date. ‘This was a result which clearly did more for Villa than Chelsea, but Houllier is generally perceived to be more at risk than Ancelotti’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills have lengthened Chelsea from 7/2 to 9/2 third favourites to win the Premier League title, and cut Man U from 11/10 to Even money favourites with Aresenal 10/3 second favourites; Man City 11/2; Spurs 20/1.

WILLIAM HILL have slahed their odds for David Beckham to join Spurs before he returns to the MLS from 1/3 to 1/5. ‘There seems to be something of a Redknapp-Beckham love-in going on, so we’ve had to cut our odds for Becks to go to White Hart Lane on loan’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WHO WILL BECKS JOIN BEFORE RETURNING TO MLS?

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on which club David Beckham will honour with his playing presence prior to returning to the MLS for its new season, and with Harry Redknapp suggesting Spurs may be interested, the London club has been installed as 1/3 favourite with Beckham’s former club Manchester United 25/1 longshots. ‘Just why any club would want to risk alienating their current squad by parachuting a mercenary in for a few weeks is a moot question but where Becks is concerned commonsense so often seems to fly out of the window! No doubt some clubs would like to bask in the reflected glory of having him on board for a while’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

AFTER Liverpool’s home defeat by bottom of the table Wolves, Roy Hodgson has replaced Avram Grant as 7/4 favourite to be the next Premier League manager to leave his club, cutting him from 9/4. ‘With Hodgson asking supporters to back him, and results worsening it is difficult to see an early way back to acceptance by the fans and he may just decide that this is a classic case of right man, wrong club and walk away before he is sacked’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

HOULLIER ODDS-ON TO SURVIVE – JUST!

WILLIAM HILL offer odds of 8/11 that Gerrard Houllier will still be Villa manager on the first day of next season – and Even money that he will not. ‘Houllier has not recovered from his terribly inappropriate comments when Villa played Liverpool, and with results the way are he has already forfeited a great deal of fan backing. In his favour is the very short amount of time he’d been in charge which enables him to say what he’s doing is a work in progress’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills have also opened a book on where Villa will finish this season and they are just 9/2 to end up in the bottom three, which would almost certainly doom Houllier to departure:

HILLS….VILLA FINISHING POSITION:
Bottom 3……9/2
14th – 17th….3/1
11th – 13th….7/4
7th – 10th…..9/4
Top 6………..10/1

WHAT PRICE A WINTER BREAK?….William Hill offer 10/3 that a compulsory Premier League ‘winter-break’ of two weeks or more will be introduced in or before the end of the 2013-14 season and 1/5 that no such break will be implemented. ‘Pressure is growing for a winter-break but it will be difficult to persuade vested interests that it is worthwhile’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
