Bob A Job – Is It A Given ?

BOB – A JOB?

BOB BRADLEY is 11/4 favourite to become the next Aston Villa manager with William Hill who also offer 6/1 Bilic; Curbishley; Erikkson; 7/1 Jol; Southgate; 8/1 McLaren.

‘Bradley has no club experience in the English game but did well with USA, while Bilic and Erikkson seem to crop up on every list of potential managers for every high profile job which comes along – which could be more a tribute to their agents and pr people than their managerial abilities.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘It seems that the O’Neill walk-out genuinely took the club by surprise so they are unlikely to be able to replace him immediately so this market is likely to change dramatically over the next few days’.

IS IT A GIVEN THAT SHAY WILL START FOR CITY?

WITH neither Shay Given nor Joe Hart happy to be regarded as the number two keeper at Man City, William Hill make Given 1/2 favourite to start in their opening match of the seaon, with Hart 6/4 to get the nod.
Hills offer 8/11 that BOTH Given and Hart will still be City players at the close of the January transfer window, EVENS that one or both will have left by then.

Bellamy For Celtic , Lambert For Villa , Holloway For Chop ?

WHERE WILL BELLAMY GO NEXT?

WITH Craig Bellamy apparently resigned to having to leave Man City to play regularly this season, William Hill are betting on where he will play his first game after the transfer window closes assuming it is not for City, and make Celtic their 11/8 favourite. ‘Most neutrals thought Bellamy had an excellent season for City but he seems to have fallen out of favour there’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Celtic…11/8
Tottenham…2/1
Fulham….5/2
Aston Villa…14/1
Everton….16/1
Sunderland….16/1
Liverpool….20/1
Newcastle….20/1
Stoke….25/1

(Bets void if first game after transfer window is for Man City)

**PAUL LAMBERT of Norwich has been backed from 16/1 to 8/1 with William Hill to become the next Villa boss.’We took several three figure bets for Lambert in the Staffordshire area but the gamble didn’t seem to spread any further than that’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.Hills make Bradley 11/4 fav and also offer 6 Bilic; Curbishley; Klinsmann; Sven; 7 Jol; Southgate.

**IAN HOLLOWAY has been backed from 8/1 to 11/2 with Hills to be the next Prem boss to leave his club.Hills make Hughton 7/2 fav and also offer 5 Mancini; 11/2 Di Matteo; Holloway; 6 Martinez.

Bookies Running Scared Of Blackpool

BOOKIES RUNNING SCARED OF BLACKPOOL
BLACKPOOL fans have staked so many bets on their side to WIN the Premier League title this season that William Hill have had to slash their odds by a record EIGHT THOUSAND points in their betting – and now offer them at 2000/1 to win the title, having opened their book at 10,000/1. ‘We now face our biggest ever Premier League loss of OVER £5million if Blackpool somehow manage to win the League after hundreds of fans backed their side -albeit none of them risked more than a tenner’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.’We won’t be losing much sleep over the prospect of that five million loss – at least, not until Blackpool win their first half dozen matches!’
Meanwhile, Hills say that they are in the bizarre position of wanting the reigning champions to do well this season, as they have taken very little cash for Chelsea to win the title again – and they currently represent the BEXT possible outcome for them. ‘We will win a hefty sum if Chelsea retain the title as the betting stands at the moment’ added Sharpe.
The second worst result for Hills would be a title triumph for Aston Villa – ‘most of those bets were struck before O’Neill walked out’- while Manchester United would be the third worst result for them, as they have attracted the largest bets so far – one of £10,000 from a Glasgow-based punter and a £6000 bet from a Norwich client.

Rooney 12/1 not to score for England in next 4 games:
WHEN WILL ROONEY SCORE AGAIN FOR ENGLAND?
WILLIAM HILL offer 12/1 that Wayne Rooney will fail to score for England in any of their next four matches. ‘Rooney is overdue an England goal and we make him 8/13 to get one or more against Bulgaria in the next game but he is 12/1 to continue his drought for the next four England games’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. Hills also offer 9/2 that Rooney will NOT start the game against Bulgaria – 1/8 that he will do.

Fulham 2/1 For Top Half Finish

Fulham 2/1 for top half finish:

‘SPARKY’ SPECIALS:

WILLIAM HILL make Mark Hughes a 2/1 chance to achieve a top half finish with Fulham – and 25/1 to bring in three or more Man City players to the club before the close of the first transfer window. ‘Hodgson is a tough act to follow, but ‘Sparky’ Hughes is already eyeing a top ten finish – and he won’t have the distraction of the Europa League as Hodgson did. However, we make them odds-on to finish lower than the 12th place Hodgson achieved last campaign’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. Hills make Fulham 5/1 to finish 12th again this season, 7/4 to finish 11th or higher; 8/13 13th or lower.

Man City: To Prove Money Cannot Buy Title!

With Manchester City splurging the cash, William Hill have opened the betting on where they will finish the season, offering 9/2 they win. City are 4/1 to finish second, 4/1 third, 9/2 fourth and 6/4 Fifth or worse. City are 1/2 to break in to the Big Four but 6/4 to finish outside the Champions League spots.

“City obviously have unlimited funds but despite the spending the odds suggest they will break into the Big Four but the title is likely to prove elusive for now,” said Hill’s spokesman Rupert Adams

William Hill Where Will Man City Finish?: 9/2 Winners, 4/1 Second, 4/1 Third, 9/2 Fourth, 6/4 Fifth or lower

Man City: Out With The Old In With The New?

William Hill are taking bets on how many of Manchester City’s starting XI from the final game of last season will start the first game of this one. With the spending spree set to continue, Hills offer just 13/8 that only 3 or 4 make the line up against Spurs on the 14th of August. With two of the players from City’s 1-1 draw with West Ham having left the club already and a somewhat depleted XI starting the game, Hill’s are offering 8/1 that 8 or 9 start.

“City have made no secret of their desire to bringin players of the highest quality in an attempt to improve on their 5th place last season and they could probably make 3 or 4 starting XIs out of the squad that they have amassed. The odds suggest that Mancini will be keen to blood his new signings against Tottenham,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

How Many Of Man City’s Starting XI In The Final Game Of Last Season Will Start The First Game Of This Season?

2 or less 11/2
3 or 4 13/8
5 or 6 11/8
7 or more 11/4

Starting XI in the final game of last season: Fulop; K. Toure; Sylvinho; Zabaleta; Wright-Phillips; De Jong; Vieira; Kompany; A Johnson; Adebayor; Santa Cruz

Torres Odds On To Stay But 7/2 For City Move!

With a number of clubs itching to get their hands on Fernando Torres’s signiture, Hills have opened a book on which club he will represent on the first day of the season and perhaps surprisingly he is 1/2 to still be a Liverpool player. Moneybags Man City are 7/2 and Chelsea 8/1.

“There are very few teams who can afford Torres price tag, as a result we feel that he will remain a Liverpool player,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Fernando Torres’ Club On First Day Of 2010/11 Season: 1/2 Liverpool, 7/2 Man City, 5/1 Chelsea, 8/1 Barcelona, 12/1 Inter, 16/1 Real Madrid…..Others On Request….Loan Deals Count

With the Premier League season just weeks away, William Hill are already speculating on which of the most endangered of species, Premiership managers, will be first to go. William Hill make Newcastle’s Chris Hughton the 4/1 favourite to bite the bullet, with big spending Man City 5/1 to give Roberto Mancini the elbow first. Elsewhere, Roberto Di Matteo is 11/2, Roberto Martinez 7/1 and Steve Bruce 8/1. The longest serving managers in the Premiership Ferguson and Wenger are both 66/1 outsiders and David Moyes is 40/1.
