Red Devils Will Leave Bookies Feeling Blue
The FA Cup semi-finals kick off on Saturday as Man City play Man Utd and William Hill make the red side of the city 11/10 favourites to get through to the final. It would appear that the loss of Wayne Rooney for United is not as damaging as the loss of Carlos Tevez for City and Hills punters have been rushing in to back United, already resulting in a five figure loss. Hills favourites to reach the final are Manchester United and Bolton, offered at 17/10, while a Stoke/Manchester City final is the outsider at 7/2.
Manchester United are firm favourites both with us and the punters and we are keeping our fingers firmly crossed for a City victory, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.
