Massive Gamble On Russia For 2018

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

In the last 24 hours, William Hill have seen a heavy gamble (including one bet of £2000) in the London area for Russia’s 2018 World Cup Bid and have subsequently slashed their odds from Even money to 4/6. This has pushed England’s odds out to 9/4 and Portugal and Spain’s bid is priced at 3/1. It is a long way since England were the massive odds on favourites a month ago and it now seems as if Russia have the upper hand with a decision imminent on Tuesday.

“As opposed to England, Russia seems to be attracting money at the right time and with decision day getting ever closer, it seems as if there is only one winner,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill World Cup 2018 World Cup Bid:

4/6 Russia; 9/4 England; 3/1 Portugal & Spain; 50/1 Belgium & Holland

Would You Adam And Eve It? Blackpool Braced To Lose Star Player

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

Following news that the Premier League have ruled in favour of Charlie Adam over his contract dispute, William Hill have opened a book on where he will be playing after the January transfer window. He is odds-on at 2/7 to remain at Blackpool after the League announced that the breach was not sufficient for him to end his contract. However, should enough bridges have been burned between club and player, the odds suggest that Everton will be sniffing around at 7/2. Liverpool are priced at 9/1 to sign the player in January.

“There is no doubting that Adam has been the stand out player for Blackpool this season and should this contract dispute have damaged relations between club and player, there will be no lack of clubs lining up to take him away from Bloomfield Road,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Blackpool are 5/6 to be relegated this season and 2000/1 to win the league.

William Hill Charlie Adam:

Charlie Adam’s Club After January Transfer Window: 2/7 Blackpool; 7/2 Everton; 9/1 Liverpool; 10/1 Bolton; 11/1 Rangers; 14/1 Aston Villa; 14/1 Stoke (others on request)

Bookies Paying The Penalty For Rooney’s Lack Of Form

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

Wayne Rooney scored from the spot last night against Rangers taking his Manchester United tally this season to two…both goals being penalties. William Hill have opened a book on the method of Rooney’s next goal and make a penalty 5/1. Rooney to score from a shot inside the penalty box is Hill’s 4/7 favourite, while a shot from outside the penalty box is offered at 9/2.

“Wayne Rooney scored a penalty against Rangers, however, that does not disguise the fact that he is suffering from a continued dip in form. It could well be that he adds to his tally with another penalty,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Wayne Rooney Odds:

Method of Next Goal: 4/7 shot from inside the box (excluding header & penalty); 9/2 Shot from outside the box (excluding header or free kick); 5/1 Penalty; 6/1 Header; 12/1 Direct from free kick.

England 20/1 To Win World Cup Bid – And World Cup

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

ENGLAND 20/1 TO WIN THE WORLD CUP BID, AND THE WORLD CUP!

Former favourites England are now 6/4 second favourites with William Hill to host the 2018 World Cup as the storm over Sunday Times allegations and the forthcoming Panorama show continues. ‘Punters certainly believe that the England bid has been damaged by this row, and before it broke they were odds on favourites, but have now been overtaken in the betting by Russia, the new favourites.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills offer 20/1 that England will both HOST the 2018 tournament, and also WIN it.

WILLIAM HILL …WORLD CUP HOSTS 2018…10/11 Russia; 6/4 England; 7/2 Spain/Portugal; 50/1 Holland/Belgium.

TO HOST 2022 WORLD CUP…..4/9 Qatar; 3/1 Australia; 9/2 USA; 33/1 Japan; 40/1 S Korea

WHO’LL GO FIRST – AVRAM OR ROY?

WITH TROUBLED bosses Roy Hodgson and Avram Grant facing each other this weekend, William Hill are offering 4/6 that Grant will leave West Ham before Hodgson, 11/10 to do vice versa, departs Liverpool.
Grant, 11/8 still to be West Ham boss on the first day of next season with Hills, is 7/4 second favourite to be the NEXT Prem manager to leave his club, with Hodgson 7/2 third favourite. Ahead of both of them in Hill’s betting is 13/8 favourite Roberto Mancini. Hills also offer 12/1 Holloway, Hughton, McCarthy, with Martinez at 14/1.
Liverpool are 4/7 with William Hill to beat West Ham, who are 11/2 with the draw 13/5.

You Bet: England Will Ring Changes After Carroll’s Debut Fizzles Out

You Bet: England Will Ring Changes After Carroll’s Debut Fizzles Out

England had the better of the closing stages against France, but could not overcome the two goal deficit that the visitors had amassed by the 55th minute. With a relatively untried formula and team on show tonight, William Hill believe that the England team that lines up against Wales will be a lot more recognisable and offer 11/10 that either four or five of the team that started against France line up for the Three Lions next competitive fixture. Hills offer 11/8 that three or less take to the field at the Millenium Stadium.

Andy Carroll showed glimpses of his quality in the 70 minutes that he was on although he is 2/7 to fail to start the game against Wales. He is 50/1 to be the leading scorer in Euro 2012.

Despite the minor setback of his first defeat at Wembley, Hills are odds on, at 4/11, that Capello leaves his post in 2012 and he is 10/1 to leave before the end of the year.

“Tonight’s game was not the most enjoyable of games to watch and with such an inexperienced team, it was always going to be difficult, however, Capello will surely ring the changes by the time the Wales game comes around and his side are still odds on to qualify for the Euro’s,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill England Odds:

When will Capello leave:
2010 10
2011 4
2012 4/11
2013 or later 11/2

Andy Carroll to start v Wales:

2/7 No
5/2 Yes

Andy Carroll to be top scorer in Euro 2012: 50/1

How many starters v France will start v Wales:

3 or less 11/8
4 or 5 11/10
6 or 7 7/2
8 or more 20/1

Euro 2012 Qualifying Group G: 1/5 England; 7/1 Montenegro; 12/1 Bulgaria; 12/1 Switzerland; 100/1 Wales

Evens Another Prem Boss To Go On Or Before Xmas Day

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

UNHAPPY XMAS FOR AVRAM- OR ANYONE ELSE?

WITH Avram Grant apparently safe in his job at West Ham at least until Christmas, William Hill have lengthened their odds about him being the next Prem boss to go from 11/8 favourite to 7/4, and Roberto Mancini is now clear favourite at 13/8, after Hills took a flurry of three figure bets for him to go; with Roy Hodgson 7/2; and Messrs Holloway, Hughton and McCarthy all 12/1 shots.
‘Avram’s somewhat grudging temporary vote of confidence may just leave time for someone else to beat him to the exit at their club’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Grant is 11/8 with Hills still to be West Ham boss on the first day of next season, 8/15 not to be.

WILLIAM HILL OFFER EVENS THAT ONE OR MORE PREMIER LEAGUE BOSSES IN THEIR JOBS TODAY WILL LEAVE THEIR CLUBS ON OR BEFORE CHRISTMAS DAY, AND 8/11 THAT NONE WILL DO SO.

Barton Odds On For Retrospective Ban…while Olly Had Better Clear His Desk

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

Joey Barton is odds on to receive a three match ban for punching Morten-Gamst Pedersen in the chest. William Hill are offering 1/4 that his punishment stretches for three matches and for Joey to receive no ban is priced at 8/1. Flouting the laws of the game seemed to be the order of the day on Wednesday when Ian Holloway made ten changes to his side that faced Aston Villa. Olly has claimed that he will quit if he gets a fine and Hills reckon he may do well to start clearing his desk now with 8/13 offered that he receives a fine of some sort from the FA and 6/5 that he does not.

“Joey Barton is no stranger to controversy and would it appear that the FA may decide to step in and hand the midfielder a ban,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Joey Barton’s team-mate, Andy Carroll, has been the subject of much praise recently and William Hill are offering 1/2 that he earns his first England cap against France on the 17th November.

Hills have also opened a market on who will be in the top two come the end of the season and make Chelsea followed by Man Utd, the 2/1 favourite while Chelsea/Arsenal is the 3/1 second favourite.

William Hill Football Specials:

Ian Holloway/Blackpool to receive a fine for fielding a weakened team vs Aston Villa?
Yes 8/13
No 6/5

Includes suspended fines.

How long will Joey Barton be banned for by the FA?
0 games 8/1
1-2 games 6/1
3 games 1/4
4 or more games 7/1
