Sneijder Favourite For Ballon D’ Or

WHO’LL WIN BALLON D’OR?

WESLEY SNEIJDER is 6/4 favourite with William Hill to win the prestigious Ballon d’Or Award following the announcement of the short-list of candidates. ‘Against him is the fact that he doesn’t play for the World Cup winners but other than that Wesley Sneijder would be a desreved winner. However, it is a sad reflection on England that they have no represnetatives on the list’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

TO WIN BALLON D’OR…6/4 Sneijder; 4 Messi; 5 Xavi; 11/2 Iniesta; 9 Villa; 16 Forlan; 20 Ronaldo; 33 Muller; Ozil; 40 Casillas; Eto’o; 50 Alonso;Drogba; Fabregas;Klose; Maicon; Puyol; Robben; Schweinsteiger; 66 Gyan; 100 Alves; Cesar; Lahm.

BORO 14/1 TO GO UP – 13/2 TO GO DOWN……..

AFTER APPOINTING Tony Mowbray as boss, Middlesbro are rated at 14/1 by William Hill to be promoted this season – and 13/2 to be relegated. ‘This won’t be an easy task for Tony Mowbray – we reckon they will struggle to reach the play-offs, let alone get promoted – and relegation is not out of the question’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Wayne Rooney Specials

******************************WILLIAM HILL WAYNE ROONEY SPECIALS*************************************************************************

Fergie now odds on to quit United before Rooney does:
ROONEY 11/4 TO QUIT UNITED IN 2011 – 2/1 TO STAY UNTIL 2015

WILLIAM HILL, who were the first bookmakers to react and close their book on Rooney remaining at United when punters poured cash on him to do so early on Friday morning, have now opened a book on when he will eventually leave the club and make him 2/1 to stay until at least 2015; 11/4 to go in 2011; 7/2 in 2012; 4/1 in 2013 and 9/2 in 2014.
‘We detected a determined gamble on Rooney staying when we received reports from a number of our shops in the Liverpool area that punters were trying to place three and four figure bets on him to remain beyond January next year, so reacted quickly and closed the book’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. ‘We’re not entirely convinced that Wayne will be able to settle down and carry on where he left off, so we aren’t prepared to offer too generous odds that he’ll leave during 2011.’
HILLS NOW MAKE SIR ALEX 1/ 4 TO LEAVE UNITED BEFORE ROONEY, AN 11/4 SHOT TO GO FIRST, DOES SO.
With Rooney having suggested that he wanted to be convinced that United would be beefing up their squad, Hills are betting on who may join the club before the start of next season and make Torres 9/2 to arrive there, Forlan 7/2 to come back and Jack Rodwell a 9/4 chance.

YOU BET ROONEY’S STAYING!

William Hill have cut their odds for Wayne Rooney to STAY at Manchester United during the January transfer window, from 7/4 to 4/6 after punters tried to place bets of up to £5000 on the troubled United striker to remain at his current club. ‘Markets like this are notoriously volatile, so when we laid several bets of up to £400 that Rooney will stay and another punter in a Liverpool branch tried to place a bet of £5000 we thought we should amend our odds’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
