Not Everyone Fancies England For World Cup

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

YOU BET NOT ALL BRITS FANCY ENGLAND FOR WORLD CUP!

ALMOST one of every five bets being placed on the World Cup with William Hill by punters in English betting shops is for England to win the tournament – but in Wales it is only one in every nine; in Northern Ireland one in every twelve – and in Scotland just one in every twenty.
‘It is certainly the case that there are regional differences in the support for England to win the World Cup, which is to be expected – but taking the betting as a whole, England are definitely the one team we’d rather see not win the World Cup,’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
In English betting shops Hills only Spain rival the support for England; in Wales the most popular selection is Brazil (21%), closely followed by Spain, with England 3rd; in Northern Ireland punters are opting for Argentina (24%), Spain, Brazil and Holland in front of England; and in Scotland, Brazil (26%) take top billing ahead of Argentina, Spain, and Holland with England 5th.
France are currently the worst possible result for Hills, who have taken one bet of £110,000 on Les Bleus at odds of 20/1, but England are a close second, and Hills anticipate that they will regain the lead before the first match kicks off – ‘The single France mega-bet has distorted our financial liability for France, as there are very few other big bets for them, but we are continually taking substantial bets for England and victory for Capello’s team will prove hideously expensive for us’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Bizarrely, North Korea are Hill’s third worst result – ‘We have taken scores of small bets of up to £80 for the 2000/1 outsiders’ – with Germany, the subject of a £60,000 bet with Hills at 14/1 on Thursday, now the 4th worst outcome.
At the other end of the scale, Hills would welcome unlikely World Cup triumphs for New Zealand, Honduras, Slovakia or Slovenia.

LATEST WILLIAM HILL WORLD CUP ODDS…4/1 Spain; 9/2 Brazil; 13/2 Argentina; 8/1 England; 9/1 Holland; 14/1 Germany; 16/1 Italy; 20/1 France; 25/1 Portugal; 50/1 Ivory Coast; 66/1 Serbia.
**Hills cut Holland from 10/1 to 9/1 on Thursday after continued support.

‘Arsene has an answer for everything, but he had the grace to look just a little embarrassed when trying to justify not shaking hands with Mark Hughes on Wednesday night’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘We think the chances are he will make sure that nothing similar happens again this season.’
Hills now make Wenger 9/2 to have left Arsenal by the first day of next season.
HILLS:

Arsene to shake Mark Hughes’s hand when Arsenal host Man City in the Premier League – 1/3 yes 9/4 no

WILLIAM Hill are offering odds about whether Alex Ferguson will rest his three biggest stars and not start them for the first Carling Cup semi final leg against City. ‘Fergie has said he will trust in the youngsters and we believe he’ll stick to that – at least in the first leg!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
To start in the 1st leg Man City v Man Utd:
Rooney 4/9 no 13/8
Berbatov 8/11 no EVS yes
Giggs 2/5 no 7/4 yes
