Rio Odds On To Never Don The Three Lions Again

June 11, 2012 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Blessing In Disguise, Coffin, Consternation, England Caps, England Squad, Footy, Impressive Tally, International Football, International Retirement, Joe Crilly, Odds, Omission, Premier League, Professional Football, Rio Ferdinand, Spokesman, Three Lions, Veteran, William Hill, Williamhill

The decision to leave Rio Ferdinand out of the England squad, despite the catalogue of injuries, has stirred consternation amongst the masses and William Hill think that this could be the final nail in the long serving defenders international coffin. He is 4/9 to never play for England again and 4/1 to announce his international retirement before the start of the 2012/13 Premier League season.

Rio is a veteran of over 80 England caps but it looks like he will fail to add to his impressive tally, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Hills are now betting on when Ferdinand will retire from football completely and offer 10/1 that he does so this year. Ferdinand fans need not worry, however as the odds of 6/4 suggest it is much more likely he is still playing in 2015.

Players often add a couple of years to their playing careers by retiring from international football and Rios omission could be a blessing in disguise, said Crilly.

Rio Ferdinand to announce his international retirement before the start of the 2012/13 Premier League season: 4/1

Rio Ferdinand to play for England again: 4/9 no; 13/8 yes

What year will Rio Ferdinand retire from professional football: 10/1 2012; 15/8 2013; 13/8 2014; 6/4 2015 or later

ENGLAND 200/1 TO WIN EUROS – WITHOUT CONCEDING A GOAL!

AFTER offering England at 16/1 to win the Euro 2012 tournament , William Hill have slashed their odds to 10/1 following their win over Belgium. ‘The first stirrings of the punting public getting behind Roy Hodgson have appeared and we acquired a potential payout of some £250,000 on England at 16/1, so shortened their odds to 10/1’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Following the 1-0 victory, Roy Hodgson has yet to see his England side concede and Hills are offering 10/1 that they do not concede at all in the Group stage, and 200/1 that they win the tournament without conceding a single goal. (Penalty shoot-outs excluded).
Danny Welbeck scored with a stunning finish and Hills make him 4/6 to start the opening goal v France, and 6/1 joint favourite to end the tournament as England top scorer.

Torres Odds-on To Fill Drogbas Boots, Hulk 4/1 To Do So

Didier Drogba has announced his intention to leave Chelsea and William Hill are betting on who will start Chelseas first game of next season and make Fernando Torres 1/2 to fill the Drogba shaped hole on Chelseas front line. Other names thrown into the mix are Lukaku 11/4, Hulk 4/1, Falcao and Cavani both 6/1, Llornete at 12/1 and Lavezzi 14/1.

Drogba has been the big-Drog at Chelsea for the last eight years and whoever fills the gap has very big boots to fill and although Torres has struggled since moving to Chelsea, the odds suggest that he will be taking up the reins, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

To start for Chelsea first game of 2012/2013 PL Season

No Yes
Fernando Llorente 1/50 12/1
Ezequiel Lavezzi 1/66 14/1

West Ham won the Richest Game In English Football and earned themselves a place at the top table once again and William Hill now make The Hammers 8/11 to survive in the Premier League next season (Evens to go down).

West Ham 2012/13 season: 8/11 stay up; 1/1 relegated; 2000/1 win the League

Drogba Backed To Stay At Chelsea But Who Else Is Sniffing Around?

May 22, 2012 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Barcelona, Chelsea, City Joe, Drogba, Favourites, Footy, Former Teammate, Ivorian, Joe Crilly, Manchester City, Nicolas Anelka, Odds, Real Madrid, Season 1, Spokesman, Stamford Bridge, Striker, Suitors, William Hill, Williamhill

Didier Drogba may be out of contract at Chelsea, but William Hill do not think that necessarily mean that the talismanic striker will be leaving Stamford Bridge, offering Even money that he starts next season at the Blues. Barcelona have reportedly targeted Drogba and have said they would be willing to offer a two year contract to the player and they are the 2/1 second favourites to take the Ivorian for the start of next season. Hills also offer 5/1 that he signs for Real Madrid and the same price that he goes to PSG. Another option could be for him to join his former teammate, Nicolas Anelka in China and he is 6/1 to sign for a side over there, while Manchester City are 12/1.

Despite his advancing years, Drogba is still coveted by the top teams around the world and should Chelsea fail to offer him what he wants, there will be no lack of suitors for him this summer, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Odds:

Didier Drogba club at the start of next season: 1/1 Chelsea; 2/1 Barcelona; 5/1 Real Madrid; 5/1 PSG; 12/1 Manchester City

John Terry 1/4 To Miss Out On Euros Squad

May 17, 2012 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments England Manager, England Squad, Euro 2012, Footy, Greenside, Joe Crilly, John Terry, Liverpool, London N22, Nod, Odds, Poland, Renaissance, Rio Ferdinand, Roy Hodgson, Season 1, Spokesman, Ukraine, William Hill, Williamhill

John Terry will have woken the morning after possibly his worst performance in a Chelsea shirt, to see that his place in the England Euros squad is no certainty. William Hill make him just 1/4 to fail to make Roy Hodgsons final 23 for Poland and the Ukraine. There are many saying that Terry and Rio Ferdinand will not be able to play in the same team and it would appear that Rio is the favoured candidate at the moment with Hills making him 4/11 to make the squad.

This is the first real issue that Hodgson has had to deal with in his role as England manager and the odds suggest that Rio will get the nod for the Euros with Terry missing out, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

The last few games have seen somewhat of a renaissance for Andy Carroll and he is 5/6 to make the Euros squad while his manager went some way towards appeasing the Anfield faithful with Liverpools 4-1 win over Chelsea and he is 1/2 to be in charge of Liverpool on the first day of next season.

Will John Terry be in Englands Euro 2012 squad: 1/4 no; 11/4 yes

Will Rio Ferdinand be in Englands Euro 2012 squad: 4/11 yes; 2/1 no

Will Andy Carroll be in Englands Euro 2012 squad: 5/6 yes; 5/6 no

Will Kenny Dalglish be in charge of Liverpool on the first day of next season: 1/2 yes; 6/4 no
