1/3 Next England boss English:
BOOKIES £50m RELIEF AS ENGLAND CRASH OUT

BOOKMAKERS have been saved from a potential £50million+ payout by England’s humiliating exit from the World Cup. And William Hill, who made Fabio 7/4 to be gone by midnight after the match, are already betting on Capello’s successor, and make Harry Redknapp 7/4 favourite. ‘We go 1/3 that the next England manager will be English’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
‘William Hill alone would have been at least £7m worse off as a result of England winning the World Cup. It was the result we feared, but it now appears that patriotic punters fell for Fabio Capello’s unfounded optimism that England would somehow produce form they had never showed at any other time and manage to win the World Cup.
‘As a result the bookmaking industry was staring down the barrel of its biggest payout ever of over £50m’ said William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe.
‘Even the disallowed goal now looks like a hollow excuse after England’s abject collapse in the second half’
HILLS ARE 5/4 THAT CAPELLO IS GONE BY THE END OF THE WORLD CUP.
HILLS OFFER 1/3 THE NEXT MANAGER WILL BE ENGLISH, 9/4 NOT.

HILLS OFFER 5/1 THAT FIFA WILL INTRODUCE GOALLINE VIDEO TECHNOLOGY FOR THE NEXT WORLD CUP.

WILLIAM HILL – NEXT PERMANENT ENGLAND MANAGER:

Harry Redknapp..7/4
Roy Hodgson..7/2
Stuart Pearce..7/1
Martin O’Neill..10/1
Jose Mourinho..12/1
Sam Allardyce …12/1

6/1 Megson To Be Last Prem Boss To Go This Season

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

6/1 MEGSON TO BE LAST PREM BOSS TO GO THIS SEASON

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on how many more Premier League managers will follow Gary Megson out of their psitions this season – and offer 6/1 that he will be the last to go. ‘With the January transfer window looming up, clubs may consider that there is little point switching managers afterwards, so if we don’t see more departures within the next few weeks that may just be it for the season. However, chairmen are also capable of coming up with different reasons for disposing of out of favour managers, so I suspect we’ll take plenty of money at 20/1 for another four or more to go – particularly as several clubs appear to have severe financial problems.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

HILLS – HOW MANY MORE PREM BOSSES WILL GO BEFORE END OF CAMPAIGN?
0 6/1
1 11/10
2 7/4
3 7/1
4+ 20/1

WILL PAUL LOVE TO GO A-WANDERING DOWN BOLTON WAY?

PAUL JEWELL has been backed down to favouritism to become the next Bolton manager with William Hill who now make him an 11/4 shot from an opening 5/1 to get the job full-time and also offer: 9/2 Peter Reid; 5/1 Mark Hughes; 7/1 Darren Ferguson; 10/1 Alan Curbishley; Gary Speed; 12/1 Owen Coyle; 14/1 Steve Coppell; 16/1 Iain Dowie; Alan Irvine; Gareth Southgate. ‘As with most situations of this nature, this has been a volatile market early on, but Jewell and Reid have both come in for significant support as the day has gone on’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Reid My Lips – Peter For Bolton Job

REID MY LIPS – PETER BEST BACKED BOLTON BOY

PETER REID has been the heaviest backed contender for the Bolton job with William Hill who have now cut his odds from 10/1 when the book opened on Wednesday, to 9/4 favourite. ‘Reid is now a potential four figure loser for us after a flurry of support during the day, but he is still not being backed as though he was on the verge of taking the job, so we think this race has some way to go yet’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Favourite when the day started, Paul Jewell is now Hill’s 4/1 second favourite, and they also offer 6/1 Darren Ferguson; 7/1 Mark Hughes; 10/1 Alan Curbishley Owen Coyle; 14/1 Gary Speed; 16/1 Steve Coppell; Ian Dowie; Walter Zenga.
