STEVE BRUCE TWIT? SOME WILL BET ON IT!
TWITTER rumours have sparked a gamble on Steve Bruce to be the enxt Premuier League boss to leave his club – with William Hill cutting their odds from 25/1 to 14/1 as a result of Twitter claims that the Darren Bent departure could result in Bruce leaving too. ‘There are so many sources from which rumours and stories can be broken that it is difficult to differentiate between those with any substance and the purely speculative, but when people start betting because of a Twitter story we need to respond, and that’s what we’ve done this time.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
HILLS MAKE AVRAM GRANT 5/6 favourite to be the next Prem boss to leave his club and also offer 7/2 Ancelotti; 7/1 Hughes; 10/1 McCarthy; Martinez; 12 Houllier; DiMatteo; 14 Bruce; 20 Kean; 12 No more bosses to go this season.
WHEN WILL GRANT LEAVE WEST HAM?
BEFORE 22ND MAY 2011
1/2
22ND MAY – START 2011/12 SEASON
2/1
START 11/12 SEASON – CLOSE JAN ’12 WINDOW
12/1
AFTER JAN ’12 WINDOW
6/1
WITH THE LATEST AVRAM GRANT crisis apparently over, William Hill are betting on when the beleaguered boss – who has now been favourite to be the enxt boss to go on SIX separate occasions this season – will eventually leave West Ham, and make ‘before May 22, 2011’ their 1/2 favourite, offering 6/1 that he is still in charge following the January 2012 transfer window. ‘Avram has proved to be one of the great survivors this season – maybe he’ll still be around to manage West Ham when and if they move into the Olympic Stadium – he’s 16/1 to do that!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
20/1 MORE PENALTY MAYHEM AT EMIRATES
With Arsenal and Leeds both scoring from the penalty spot in their original FA Cup tie, William Hill offer 20/1 that both will again convert spot-kicks in the replay. Hills make Arsenal 2/7 to progress to the next round with Leeds 5/2 to eliminate the Prem title chasers.
