A NEW LOW FOR CHELSEA?

Germany boss Joachim Low has emerged as a punters favourite to become the next permanent (one year contract or longer) Chelsea manager, with William Hill trimming his odds from 12/1 to 9/1 fifth favourite. The market has been dominated by media talk of Mourinhos possible return, while our best backed contender early on has been Rafa Benitez. However, a few shrewd clients have been nibbling at the Low price which makes a change! said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.

TO BE NEXT PERMANENT CHELSEA MANAGER- 7/4 Mourinho; 3/1 Benitez; 11/2 Pep; 8/1 Di Matteo; 9/1 Low; Capello; 14 Moyes. Others on request.

Tevez Backed To Return To City First Team

February 19, 2012 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Bets, Carlos Tevez, Fitness, Graham Sharpe, Greenside, Line Stance, London N22, Manchester City, Media Relations Director, Odds, Play Game, Premier League, Punters, Spokesman, Team Game, Twitter, William Hill, Williamhill

TEVEZ BACKED TO RETURN TO CITY FIRST TEAM

WILLIAM HILL have slashed their odds for Carlos Tevez to play for Manchester City in either the Premier League or Europa League before the end of this season from 5/4 to 4/7 after a flurry of bets. Mancini appears to be softening his previous hard-line stance on Tevez and punters are taking that as a signal that hell be back in the side if he can prove his fitness, and betting accordingly said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills now offer 5/4 that Tevez will NOT play in another first team game this season.

78% Of Money Gambled Is For Harry To Be England Boss

February 11, 2012 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Bets, Boss, Capello, Discrepancy, England Manager, Fiver, Gambler, Graham Sharpe, Guus Hiddink, Harry Redknapp, Hodgson, Leading The Way, Media Relations Director, Odds, Spokesman, Spurs, Stuart Pearce, Twitter, William Hill, Williamhill

78% OF MONEY GAMBLED IS FOR HARRY TO BE ENGLAND BOSS..
BETTING support for Harry Redknapp has seen 78% of the cash William Hill have so far taken on the Next England Manager market since Capello resigned, gambled on the Spurs boss, with Stuart Pearce attracting 8.7% in second place, and Guus Hiddink 6.5% in third.
However, in terms of individual bets placed, Pearce is leading the way with 25% of bets struck, ahead of Hiddink in 2nd with 22% and Redknapp in third with 21%.
The discrepancy can probably be explained that Harry Redknapp is currently offered at odds of 4/11 ,which are unlikely to appeal to a gambler with a fiver in his or her pocket, whereas Pearce is quoted at 11/2 and Hiddink 12/1 said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.
WILLIAM HILL- NEXT PERMANENT ENGLAND BOSS- 4/11 Redknapp; 11/2 Pearce; 10 Mourinho; 12 Hiddink; Hodgson. Others on request.
