The Under 21 side is stuffed full of future England stars and contrary to popular belief the Three Lions have a very bright future indeed, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

England U21s are priced at 6/5 to come home from Denmark with a victory in the bag, while the hosts are 9/5. They are the 4/1 second favourites to win the U21 European Championships.

March 30, 2011 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Fifa Presidency, Fifa President, Hammam, Horse Power, Horse Race, Joe Crilly, Mohammed, Odds, Power Seat, President William, Sepp Blatter, Spokesman, William Hill, World Football

Sepp Blatter is being taken on by Mohammed bin Hammam in the race to win the next election to become FIFA President. William Hill make Sepp Blatter the 1/3 favourite to retain his position. Bin Hammam is 9/4 in what is a two horse race for the power seat in World Football.

There have been calls recently for a change at the top table of FIFA, but the odds suggest that Blatter may well have enough support to see him through into another term, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Andy Carroll had an impressive debut for England and will be looking to build on that in the match against Wales, with a goal not looking unlikely, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Gareth Bale will undoubtedly be Wales star man and William Hill are offering 14/1 that he wins Man Of The Match on Saturday. Former captain, Craig Bellamy looks set to start and Hills are offering 11/2 that either he or Gareth Bale open the scoring. Hills are taking bets on where Bellamy will be playing next season, offering 5/2 that he stays at Cardiff and the same price that he returns to Manchester City.

City 6/4 To Be Flying High With Etihad…or Will They Need The Wonga???

Manchester City have been given permission to rename their stadium and William Hill think that current shirt sponsors Etihad are the front runners, offering 6/4 that they win the rights to rename Eastlands. The UAE Tourism Board, UAE Interact, are the 4/1 second favourites with Umbro the 10/1 third favourites.

Given Roberto Mancinis penchant for scarves and hats, Hills are offering 25/1 that Armani buy the rights and 33/1 Versace do. 100/1 is offered for money-bags City to play in the Wonga Stadium next season!

Etihad are the clear favourites but should Manchester City ever need a payday loan, maybe renaming Eastlands the Wonga Stadium, could help them out, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Hills are offering 2/1 that Samir Nasri gets a two match ban, while Wenger is 7/4 to be sent to the stands for Arsenals next two European fixtures.

Wenger and Nasri could potentially face a spell on the sidelines, however, the odds suggest that a fine will suffice for the UEFA bigwigs, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Arsenals European adventure once more ended at the Camp Nou and William Hill now offer 8/13 that Arsenal end the season trophyless. With Arsenal heading toward another barren season, Hills offer 4/1 that Arsene Wenger has left his position by the first game of next season. Another Arsenal mainstay who could be on the way, is Cesc Fabregas, who is 11/10 to not be at Arsenal come the first game of next season.

Arsenal now have to turn their attentions towards the league and FA Cup, but the odds suggest that they will end the season trinket-less once more, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Barcelona are now the 5/4 favourites to win the Champions League, while their Spanish rivals, Real Madrid are 4/1. Chelsea follow at 5/1 with Manchester United at 7/1.

Liverpool go to Portugal to face Braga and William Hill are offering 5/4 that record signing, Andy Carroll, gets off the mark during the game. Braga conceded six during the Champions League against Arsenal; and Hills are offering 50/1 that Liverpool beat this and score seven or more. Liverpool are 6/5 to be the British team to progress furthest in the Europa League, while Manchester City are the 5/6 favourites to do so. Rangers are priced at 7/1. With three British sides in action on Thursday, Hills are offering Even money that there are more than three goals scored collectively between Rangers, Manchester City and Liverpool.

City are heading to the icy tundra of Kiev and Hills are offering 4/1 that 10 or all of Manchester Citys starting XI are wearing gloves when the match kicks off. City will be hoping their mercurial striker, Mario Ballotelli, will be on top form, yet Hills are offering 2/1 that his first action in the game will be a booking, while he is 6/4 to be subbed.

Manchester Citys players can afford the best that handwear can offer and with temperatures plummeting in the Ukrainian capital, we expect that there will be a vast array of gloves on show, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Arsenals European adventure once more ended at the Camp Nou and William Hill now offer 8/13 that Arsenal end the season trophy-less.

Chelsea Getting Ever Closer…but When Will Torres Score?

March 14, 2011 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments 50p, Anfield, Fb, Fernando Torres, German Club, Italian Club, Joe Crilly, Kenny Dalglish, League Crown, Man Charlie, Manchester City, Manchester United, Premier League, Small Fortune, Spanish Club, Stamford Bridge, Star Man, Trapdoor, West Brom, West Ham, William Hill

Fernando Torres failed to find the net again although William Hill are offering 4/5 that he bags his first Chelsea goal at Stamford Bridge against Copenhagen next week. 7/1 is on offer for him to fail to find the net for the next five matches. Defeat left Blackpool dangling perilously over the relegation trapdoor and thus increased the probability of star man, Charlie Adam, leaving the club. Hills are offering 13/8 that he leaves for Tottenham in the Summer, while 5/2 is on offer for him to join the Kenny Dalglish revolution at Anfield.

Torres looks more worth 50p than £50 million at the moment, but he is a quality forward but we are expecting him to take us for a small fortune when he does eventually score, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly. Possibly staring with Copenhagen next week.

Blackpool are only two points off relegation now and Hills have them as Even money (from 6/5) to be relegated at the end of the season, while Chelsea on the other hand have closed the gap on Manchester United and have been cut from 14/1 to 7/1 to retain their Premier League crown. Chelsea are well and truly over their slump…write them off at your peril!

Which Club Will Charlie Adam Be At On First Day Of Next Season: 13/8 Tottenham; 5/2 Liverpool; 5/1 Blackpool; 10/1 Manchester United; 16/1 German Club; 20/1 Spanish Club; 25/1 Italian Club

Fernando Torres First Chelsea Goal: 4/5 Copenhagen; 5/2 Manchester City; 5/1 Stoke; 8/1 Wigan; 12/1 West Brom; 7/1 None of the next five
