WILLIAM HILL are offering odds of 5/6 that Steven Gerrard will be handed a retrospective ban for the Monday night incident with Portsmouth’s Michael Brown – and 5/6 that he does not.

WILLIAM HILL SCOTLAND SPECIALS**********************************************

BOYD 9/1 TO SCORE 5 OR MORE FOR SCOTLAND IN 2010

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on how many goals Kris Boyd will score for Scotland in the five scheduled 2010 fixtures they have – and they think he is most likely to draw a blank – quoting him at 5/2 to do so – offering 7/2 that he scores once; 7/2 twice; 10/3 three times; 11/2 four; 9/1 five or more. ‘With Kris Boyd making an international comeback there will be plenty of interest in his scoring rate, but we think he’ll find it tough to average a goal a game for the year’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Bookies Shaken As Bridge Snubs Terry

BOOKIES SHAKEN AS WAYNE SNUBS TERRY

BOOKMAKERS William Hill are paying out to punters who gambled on Wayne Bridge refusing to shake hands with John Terry after the odds about that happening were slashed from odds against to odds-on following a surge of bets.
‘We cut our odds once from 13/8 to 11/10 and then again to 5/6 as punters poured cash on the Bridge snub’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘It will cost us a five figure sum – so we’re shaken- but not stirred enough to rule out similar bets in the future as they create a huge talking point.’
HILLS OFFER 10/1 THAT BRIDGE WILL CHANGE HIS MIND AND MAKE HIMSELF AVAILABLE FOR 2010 WORLD CUP SELECTION.

GOODBYE, DARLING? YOU BET

WITH THE row over Alistair Darling’s ‘hell’ remarks still rumbling on, William Hill are offering odds of 9/4 that the Chancellor will retain a place in the cabinet/shadow cabinet following the first Labour re-shuffle after the forthcoming General Election. He is 1/3 not to be retained in the cabinet/shadow cabinet.
‘We think Alistair Darling is unlikely to be retained in either the cabinet or shadow cabinet following the Election despite recent public displays of friendship between him and Mr Brown’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Pompey Drop Payout

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

********POMPEY DROP PAY OUT*******

BOOKMAKERS William Hill are paying out on Portsmouth being relegated from the Premiership. ‘Pompey are poised to go into administration on Friday, and if they do so they will be a massive odds-on shot to be relegated; as it is, they are currently 1/20 for the drop, having opened the season at 7/1 to go down, and it seems like delaying the inevitable not to pay out now. Punters will benefit to the tune of a five figure payout, which they would almost certainly have received in any case a few weeks down the line’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

With injury doubts over Rio:
WHO WILL SKIPPER ENGLAND V USA?

WITH RIO FERDINAND’S season-long injury problems showing no signs of ending, William Hill have made him 1/6 favourite to start England’s opening World Cup game as skipper. ‘Given his persistent problems it is a brave punter who would risk backing Rio to start the first World Cup game as captain’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘And for all that he has strongly suggested Rio will be his pick, Fabio has yet to confirm it officially’

Hills…..Who Will Captain England v USA ?
Ferdinand 1/6, Gerrard 9/2, Rooney 12/1, Lampard 14/1, Beckham 25/1, Terry 20/1, Barry 33/1, James 50/1, A Cole 50/1.
