You Bet Hull Browned Off By Speculation

YOU BET HULL BROWNED OFF BY SPECULATION

DESPITE Phil Brown’s protestations that it is virtually business as usual at Hull City, William Hill are refusing to quote odds about him surviving in his job until the end of the season, or for him to be the first Premiership manager to lose his job this season.
‘Phil did his best to give the impression that all is hunky dory at Hull, but his body language suggested anything but’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘And as a result we have now opened a book on his successor and have installed Paul Jewell as 5/1 favourite.’
Hills also offer:

Paul Jewell5/1
Alan Curbishley11/2
Gareth Southgate11/2
Iain Dowie6/1
Slaven Bilic13/2
David O’Leary10/1
Peter Reid10/1
Peter Taylor12/1

Graeme Souness20/1
Gary McCallister25/1
Glenn Hoddle25/1

WILLIAM HILL CARLING CUP LATEST:

WILLIAM HILL make Chelsea 11/4 favourites to win the Carling Cup and also offer 4/1 Man C; 9/2 Man U; 9/2 Arsenal; 11/2 Spurs; 9/1 Aston Villa; 20/1 Blackburn; 25/1 Portsmouth.
Hills also offer 5/2 that the Final will be between two of the ‘Big 4’.

All Manc final 14/1
All London final 11/4

AFTER his Carling Cup goal on Tuesday night, William Hill have cut their odds for Michael Owen to make Fabio Capello’s World Cup squad from 5/2 to 9/4 – and offer 1/3 that he will miss out. ‘Owen really needs a run of games and goals, which Fergie doesn’t currently looking like giving him, so although he appears to be fit again he isn’t getting the games which would enhance his prospects of recapturing his best form and forcing Fabio’s hand’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

SWINE FLU 6/1 TO STRIKE PREMIER LEAGUE

WILLIAM HILL offer 6/1 that one or more Premier League matches will be postponed because of swine flu this season. ‘Several clubs are apparently suffering from swine flu, so it is not impossible that games could be put at risk if entire squads are struck down’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. It is 1/12 with Hills that there will be NO swine flu postponements.

WILL NEWCASTLE GET STADIUM SPONSOR? YOU BET THEY MIGHT NOT…..

WITH MIKE ASHLEY SET TO SELL naming rights to Newcastle’s St James’ Park, bookmakers William Hill have opened a book on whether those rights will actually be sold, and what the ground will be known as. Hills believe it is unlikely that a sponsor will come forward and offer 4/7 that the ground name has NOT changed at all by the first day of next season, and 5/4 that it HAS gained a sponsor’s appendage by then. ‘It is one thing putting the naming rights up for grabs, another getting the right deal – and Mr Ashley could quote conceivably have changed his mind and sold the club by then’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
And Hill’s make Tesco the most likely sponsor’s name to be added to the ground name, quoting the supermarket chain at 16/1, and also offering:
Northern Rock 20/1
Sports Direct 25/1
Greggs 33/1
Newcastle Brown 33/1
NE Tourist 50/1
Newcastle Building Society 50/1
Compare The Meerkat/Market 66/1
Tony Blair 100/1
Cheryl Cole 100/1
UK Coal 100/1
Paul Gascoigne Stadium 500/1

WILLIAM HILL are betting on what the final average tally for goals per game in Premiership matches will be this season, and offer 11/1 that it will be over 2.9 per game.’There have been goals galore in the Prem so far this season but we think the ultimate average per game is likely to be between 2.61 and 2.7, so we make that range our 6/4 favourite’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

The Gunners are 14/1 with Hills to score 100 or more Prem goals. ‘It has been goals galore for the Gunners at home and if they can keep them flowing 100 should be within their capabilities’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

With the Arsenal-Blackburn match clocking up a new highest aggregate of the Prem season so far, 8 goals, Hills offer 2/5 that no game this season will produce 9 or more; 5/2 that 9 will be the highest aggregate of the Prem season; 9/1 that 10 will be the highest aggregate; 20/1 that 11 or more will be highest aggregate.

Which Of High Profile Bosses Will Go First ?

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

High profile bosses under threat, but:
WHO’LL GO FIRST – KEANE, BARNES OR McPARLAND?

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on which of the Football League’s three highest profile managers at the start of the season will be leaving their club first as Roy Keane; John Barnes and Ian McParland all face pressure at Ipswich, Tranmere and Notts County respectively.
Hills make the former England star Barnes Even money favourite to be the first of the three to depart, with McParland 7/4 to be on his way from County first, with Keane 11/4 to be off before the other two.
‘The three are all under severe pressure already, Keane and Barnes because their teams can’t seem to win matches and McParland because many suspect a more glamorous, media-friendly replacement is being lined up’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
HILLS: to See Season Out?
John Barnes – 7/4 YES; 2/5 NO

Ian McParland- 7/4 YES; 2/5 NO

Roy Keane- 6/5 YES; 8/13 NO

**WEST BROM are 9/4 favourites to win the Championship with Hills who make Newcastle 11/4 with Middlesbro 9/2 – these three relegated clubs are 16/1 to be the three who win promotion.

CHELSEA STILL TITLE FAVOURITES

DESPITE losing for the first time, Chelsea are still favourites to win the Premiership title with William Hill who have lengthened them from 11/10 to 7/4 and make Manchester United 15/8 second favourites, also offering 11/2 Liverpool; 7/1 Arsenal; 10/1 Man City; 50 Spurs.
‘Chelsea’s defeat was the best result of the season so far for us – we won back the millions we lost through Michael Owen’s late Man U winner last week’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

**********************************************WILLIAM HILL CARLING CUP WEDNESDAY NIGHT SPECIALS******************************************************

How much ‘injury’ time will be played at Old Trafford?:
OWEN 25/1 TO STRIKE IN ADDED TIME AGAIN
WILLIAM HILL offer just 8/15 that the Manchester United – Wolves Carling Cup game will produce three or more goals in 90 minutes play, quoting that eventuality at 8/15, and offer 16/5 that there will be two, and 16/5 one or nil. With Michael Owen hitting the vital late winner in ‘injury time’ on Sunday, William Hill offer 25/1 that he will again be on target in added time after 90 minutes play – stakes refunded if he isn’t on the pitch at that time. Hills make Owen, who is expected to start the game, 4/5 to score if he does; 10/3 to get the first goal of the game; 11/2 to score twice or more; 20/1 to hit hat trick or more. ‘This game may well offer Michael Owen the opportunity of proving that he deserves to be starting matches for United if he can add to his impact on the derby match with a significant performance here’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
AND WITH the furore about the time added on in Sunday’s Manchester derby, Hills are betting on how much ‘added’ time will be PLAYED once the 90 minutes have finished, and offer 9/2 that it will be less than two minutes; 11/8 that it is three minutes and one second or more: ‘Once added time begins all eyes will be on the ref to see how much over the indicated minimum time he may play’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
How much ‘injury time’ following the opening 90 mins will be played in the Man Utd Wolves match according to the clock on Sky Sports’ coverage?
0-1.59 9/2
2.0-3.0 10/11
3.01 + 11/8
United are red hot 1/9 favourites to make it to the next round with Hills who have Wolves at 5/1. United are 1/3 to win in 90 minutes with the draw 4/1 and a Wolves’ win 8/1.
Hills make United 4/5 to score in each half with Wolves 11/1 to do likewise; United are 5/6 to win to nil, Wolves 9/1. United are 7/4 to win both halves, Wolves 40/1.

CHELSEA 16/1 TO STAY UNBEATEN ALL PREM SEASON
Bookmakers William Hill were as aggrieved as Mark Hughes as Manchester United’s late Michael Owen winner left them substantially worse off: ‘Had the ref blown thirty seconds or so earlier, at which point everyone other than United fans were convinced the game was over, we’d have been a substantial seven figure sum better off’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘We can only suppose that time passes more slowly at Old Trafford than anywhere else in the universe!. All those punters who backed the Big Four all to win at the weekend at odds of just under 3/1 will also be quite happy with the ref’s timekeeping.’
Chelsea have been cut from 6/5 to 11/10 favourites to win the Premiership title by William Hill who make Manchester United 9/4 favourites and also offer 13/2 Liverpool; 8/1 Arsenal; 10/1 Man City; 50/1 Spurs; 125/1 Villa; 250/1 Everton. City are 11/10 with Hills to finish in the top four, 4/6 not to.
AND HILLS NOW MAKE CHELSEA 16/1 TO REMAIN UNDEFEATED ALL SEASON IN THE PREMIERSHIP.

HART OF THE MATTER FOR POMPEY

WILLIAM HILL have slashed their odds for Portsmouth’s manager Paul Hart to be the first Premiership manager to leave his job this season from odds against at 11/10, to odds on at 4/6 – and Hills also now make Portsmouth odds on at 4/9 to be relegated this season.
‘Hart has to be under severe pressure as he was appointed by the former owners of the club and their form has not improved since the new ownership took over’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
