********************************WILLIAM HILL WEEEKEND PREMIER LEAGUE SPECIALS************************************************

ARSENE WENGER THIRD FAVOURITE FOR CHOP

Following the takeover at QPR, William Hill have lengthened their odds about Neil Warnock being the next Premier League manager to leave his club from Even money favourite to 11/4 second favourite. ‘The takeover appears to have strengthened Warnock’s position in the short term, but many more results like their opening 0-4 home defeat would see his odds plunge again’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. Hills now make Blackburn boss, Stee Kean, their 7/4 favourite to be the next boss out but after further support for Arsene Wenger to be the next boss to go, incuding one of £200 at 9/1, he has been cut to 6/1 joint third favourite. ‘Arsene was a 33/1 shot pre-season to be the first Premier League boss to go but has been steadily backed to the point where he is now by some distance our worst potential result in this market’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
*Hills now offer 10/3 that Wenger will be gone before the end of the season, 1/5 that he is still in place.
* Arsenal points in next two games (v Liverpool/Man U): 8/1 six; 7/2 four; 2/1 three; 9/4 one; 7/2 none

Punters’ Picks For Title/ Relegation…….. Arsene’s Future

PUNTERS’ PICKS FOR TITLE/RELEGATION……..ARSENE’S FUTURE

PUNTERS TIP LIVERPOOL FOR THE TITLE – BLACKBURN , NEWCASTLE AND VILLA FOR DROP

WILLIAM HILL have analysed bets struck on the Premier League title and relegation races so far, and discovered that Liverpool have accounted for almost 40% of bets struck so far on the title, and Blackburn Rovers have attracted the greatest percentage of relegation bets taken thus far – 20.43%.
‘The two lists – derived from bets struck online, although they are closely mirrored by our shop bets- show an intriguing and striking convergence from the betting odds – Liverpool are only 10/1 fifth favourites for the title in our outright odds, while Blackburn are 3/1 sixth favourites for the drop – Villa, third best backed to go down, are actually joint seventh favourites to win the title, while Norwich, 7th best backed for the title are second favourites to be relegated!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
‘It will be fascinating to look back with hindsight, and see whether the bookies or the punters have got it right.’

BEGINNING OF END FOR ARSENE?

ARSENE WENGER has been cut from 33/1 to 10/1 joint fourth favourite to be the next Premier League manager to leave his club as he appeared to be facing the loss of both Fabregas and Nasri from his squad. Hills make him 1/6 to see out of the season, 7/2 not to. ‘Should the Gunners get off to a slow start pressure will mount inexorably on Arsene Wenger, in which circumstances it is not impossible to envisage an end to his reign at Arsenal.’ Said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM Hill- Next Prem boss to go….13/8 Kean; 2/1 Warnock; 4/1 Pardew; 10 Bruce; Wenger; 12 McCarthy; 14 Redknapp; 16 Coyle, Mancini, Martinez, Moyes. Others on request.

Bad Kompany Costs Hills Dear

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

Late winner is six figure nightmare for bookies:
NOW UNITED ODDS-ON TO OUTDO CITY IN PREM

WILLIAM HILL have cut Man U from 8/15 to 1/2 to finish above Man City in the Premier League this season. City are 1/3 with Hills to end the season with one of the major trophies while United are 4/5 to do likewise – City are 500/1 to win all four major trophies, United 250/1.

But Hills – who were offering United at up to 18/1 in-play to come back from two behind to win – were left cursing the late winner gifted to United – ‘With seconds to go we were congratulating ourselves on a six figure winning draw – instead, seconds later we were looking at a six figure loser. So, as far as we are concerned it was a case of very bad Kompany costing us dear’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.’We took a total of £960 for United at 18/1, including one of £100, then one online punter from Scotland was confident enough to stake £1000 on the comeback at 16/1, and another had £500.’

UNITED KEEPER De Gea was criticised for his part in City’s second goal, and Hills have opened a book on how many Premier League goals he will start this season, offering:

Hills… How many Premier League matches will De Gea start for Man Utd 2011/12?
29 or less…..6/4
30 to 32……4/1
33 or more…10/11

Hills…..Who will finish higher? Man Utd 1/2 Man City 6/4

Hills…..How many points will Man City take from Premier League matches against Man Utd 2011/12?
0….4/1….1….5/2…..2…..9/1….3…..9/4…..4….10/3…….6…..13/2

Hills… How many Premier League matches will De Gea start for Man Utd 2011/12?
29 or less6/4……30 to 32……4/1…….33 or more…10/11

William Hill…To win Premier League…7/4 Man U; 3/1 Chelsea; 4/1 Man City; 10/1 Arsenal; 12/1 Liverpool; 66/1 Spurs. Others on request.

Premier League Looks Set To Strike It Lucky

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

With a host of top quality strikers set to be plying their trade in the Premier League next season, William Hill think that the 2011/12 could be yet another record breaking season, offering 4/5 that last season’s total of 1063 goals is broken this year. With a number of the ‘top six’ sides recruiting heavily over the summer break, Hills are offering 5/6 that the top six score more than the 334 that they mustered last season.

Manchester United lead the scoring charts last season and 9/4 is offered for them to do so once again, while Chelsea are the 11/4 second favourites. Hills also offer 7/4 that over 30 goals are scored on the opening weekend of the season.

“Last season was a record breaker with more goals scored than any previous year in Premier League history and with a number of top strikers set to line up for their sides this season, the goals look set to flow,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Despite suffering a somewhat rocky start to his Chelsea career, Hills are backing Fernando Torres to do the business this season and make him the 13/8 favourite to be Chelsea’s top marksman this season. Didier Drogba is offered at 11/4 and Frank Lampard is 9/2.

Total goals scored by the “top six” in 2011/2012*: 10/11 under 334; 33/1 exactly 334; 5/6 over 334
*Arsenal; Chelsea; Liverpool; Man City; Man Utd; Tottenham

Total Premier League goals in 2011/2012: 10/11 under 1063; 100/1 exactly 1063; 4/5 over 1063

Total opening weekend goals in the Premier League in 2011/12: 13/8 under 26; 13/8 26-29; 7/4 30 or more

Highest scoring Premier League Side: 9/4 Manchester United; 11/4 Chelsea; 3/1 Arsenal; 6/1 Manchester City; 11/1 Liverpool; 14/1 Tottenham; 66/1 Everton; 66/1 Aston Villa; 80/1 Bolton; 80/1 Sunderland; 80/1 Newcastle; 100/1 Stoke; 100/1 Fulham; 125/1 West Brom; 125/1 Blackburn; 150/1 Wigan; 200/1 QPR; 200/1 Wolves; 250/1 Norwich; 250/1 Swansea

Chelsea top goalscorer: 13/8 Fernando Torres; 11/4 Didier Drogba; 9/2 Frank Lampard; 9/1 Nicolas Anelka; 9/1 Salomon Kalou; 14/1 Florent Malouda; 20/1 Daniel Sturridge; 33/1 Yossi Benayoun; 66/1 Branislav Ivanovic; 66/1 Ramires…others on request

balotelli 4/1 To Be Suspended This Season-city Odds On For Top Two!

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

Balotelli 4/1 To Be Suspended This Season-City Odds On For Top Two!
Mario Balotelli’s behavior continues to astound and Hills are offering 4/1 that his club suspend him at any point this year. He is 7/4 to start twelve or fewer games for the club, 5/4 to score six or less goals and 11/4 to be shown two or more red cards. Despite Balotelli’s antics, punters are piling in on Manchester City becoming the new power house of the Premiership and they are 8/13 to finish the season in either first or second place. Arsenal, on the other hand, continue to be friendless and they are 11/8 to finish between 5th and 10th.

“Nobody is disputing Balotelli’s talent but he comes with a fair amount of baggage and it would be no great surprise if City gave up on their man. That said, his antics are not putting off punters lumping on City to finish in the top two this season!” said Hill’s spokesman Rupert Adams.

William Hill Specials:
Balotelli league starts: 7/4 Twelve or less, 3/1 – 13-16, 7/2 – 17-20, 9/4 – 21+.
Balotelli league goals: 5/4 Six or less, 11/5 – 7-10, 7/4 – 11+.
Balotelli league red cards: 1/2 – none, 4/1 – one, 11/4 – two or more
Balotelli suspended by Man City this season: 1/7 no, 4/1 yes.

Manchester City finishing position: 8/13 – 1st-2nd, 11/4 – 3rd, 4/1 – 4th, 4/1 – 5th-10th, 33/1 – 11th-17th, 1000/1 relegated.

Arsenal finishing position: 5/2 – 1st-2nd, 4/1 – 3rd, 11/4 – 4th, 11/8 – 5th-10th, 16/1 – 11th-17th, 500/1 relegated.

Match Bet: 1/2 Man City, 6/4 Arsenal

N’Zgobia league goals: 13/8 under five, 6/5 – 5-7, 5/2 – 8+.
