LIVERPOOL AND RAFA ON BRINK

LIVERPOOL’S chances of progressing in the Champions League suffered a hammer blow as Lyon scored a late equaliser, and William Hill now make them 8/1 to go through from their Group (1/20 not to), and 40/1 to win the tournament, while Hills now make Rafa Benitez 6/4 from 9/4 to be gone from the club by the end of the season (1/2 to survive). ‘Rafa went from hero to almost zero in the space of minutes and Liverpool will do well to lift themselves from a setback like this’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
HILLS OFFER 1/7 THAT LIVERPOOL WILL WIN NOTHING THIS SEASON.
Rangers are 9/2 with Hills to go through, 1/8 not to.
Hills now make Chelsea 6/4 favourites to progress furthest of the Premier League sides in the competition, with Man U at 7/4, , Arsenal 2/1 and Liverpool 16/1.

Liverpool 10/1 To Lose 10 As Rio World Cup Odds Lengthen And Brown Odds On For Chop

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

10/1 LIVERPOOL TO LOSE TEN OR MORE PREM GAMES

WITH LIVERPOOL already beaten five times in the Premier League, William Hill are betting on how many matches they will lose in the division by the end of the season, and make 7 their 15/8 favourite, also offering 8- 9/4; 9- 7/2; 6- 5/1; 10+ – 10/1; 5- 14/1.
And with Liverpool also 8/13 to go out of the Champions League at the current stage with Hills, who make them 6/5 to progress, Rafa Benitez is also coming under pressure, with Hills making him 9/4 to be gone by the end of the season, but 1/3 still to be boss. ‘It is difficult to see Liverpool avoiding any more Premier League defeats, and with five already on the board we suspect out 10/1 for 10 or more defeats to be a popular offer’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘And there is more backing for Rafa to depart before the end of the campaign, rather than to remain’.

RIO SPECULATION SEES WORLD CUP START ODDS LENGTHEN

AS SPECULATION mounts over Rio Ferdinand’s fitness, William Hill have lengthened their odds about him starting England’s first World Cup match from 1/7 to 1/6, and shortened the odds for him to miss out from 4/1 to 7/2. He is now down from 10/1 to 7/1 not to be selected for the World Cup squad, and 1/16 to be included. ‘The longer the uncertainty continues, the more money we’ll take for him to fail to make the starting line up, or even the squad’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

BROWN STILL ON BRINK, SAY BOOKIES

DESPITE suggestions that Phil Brown’s future as Hull boss will be guaranteed by the club’s new chairman, William Hill give him little chance of seeing the season out as manager and offer 1/12 that he will go before the end of the campaign and 6/1 that he is still there on the final day.

You Bet Hull Browned Off By Speculation

YOU BET HULL BROWNED OFF BY SPECULATION

DESPITE Phil Brown’s protestations that it is virtually business as usual at Hull City, William Hill are refusing to quote odds about him surviving in his job until the end of the season, or for him to be the first Premiership manager to lose his job this season.
‘Phil did his best to give the impression that all is hunky dory at Hull, but his body language suggested anything but’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘And as a result we have now opened a book on his successor and have installed Paul Jewell as 5/1 favourite.’
Hills also offer:

Paul Jewell5/1
Alan Curbishley11/2
Gareth Southgate11/2
Iain Dowie6/1
Slaven Bilic13/2
David O’Leary10/1
Peter Reid10/1

WILLIAM HILL CARLING CUP LATEST:

WILLIAM HILL make Chelsea 11/4 favourites to win the Carling Cup and also offer 4/1 Man C; 9/2 Man U; 9/2 Arsenal; 11/2 Spurs; 9/1 Aston Villa; 20/1 Blackburn; 25/1 Portsmouth.
Hills also offer 5/2 that the Final will be between two of the ‘Big 4’.

All Manc final 14/1
All London final 11/4

AFTER his Carling Cup goal on Tuesday night, William Hill have cut their odds for Michael Owen to make Fabio Capello’s World Cup squad from 5/2 to 9/4 – and offer 1/3 that he will miss out. ‘Owen really needs a run of games and goals, which Fergie doesn’t currently looking like giving him, so although he appears to be fit again he isn’t getting the games which would enhance his prospects of recapturing his best form and forcing Fabio’s hand’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

SWINE FLU 6/1 TO STRIKE PREMIER LEAGUE

WILLIAM HILL offer 6/1 that one or more Premier League matches will be postponed because of swine flu this season. ‘Several clubs are apparently suffering from swine flu, so it is not impossible that games could be put at risk if entire squads are struck down’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. It is 1/12 with Hills that there will be NO swine flu postponements.

WILL NEWCASTLE GET STADIUM SPONSOR? YOU BET THEY MIGHT NOT…..

WITH MIKE ASHLEY SET TO SELL naming rights to Newcastle’s St James’ Park, bookmakers William Hill have opened a book on whether those rights will actually be sold, and what the ground will be known as. Hills believe it is unlikely that a sponsor will come forward and offer 4/7 that the ground name has NOT changed at all by the first day of next season, and 5/4 that it HAS gained a sponsor’s appendage by then. ‘It is one thing putting the naming rights up for grabs, another getting the right deal – and Mr Ashley could quote conceivably have changed his mind and sold the club by then’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
And Hill’s make Tesco the most likely sponsor’s name to be added to the ground name, quoting the supermarket chain at 16/1, and also offering:
Northern Rock 20/1
Sports Direct 25/1
Greggs 33/1
Newcastle Brown 33/1
NE Tourist 50/1
Newcastle Building Society 50/1
Compare The Meerkat/Market 66/1
Tony Blair 100/1
Cheryl Cole 100/1
UK Coal 100/1
Paul Gascoigne Stadium 500/1
Ant & Dec 1000/1
(others on request)

Paul Hart is favourite to be first but there are plenty who will fancy a flutter on these three being gone by February’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

SUNDAY PREMIERSHIP SPECIALS…FEATURING LIVERPOOL V MAN U

LIVERPOOL-UNITED BIGGEST BETTING MATCH OF SEASON SO FAR

ALL THE INDICATIONS are that the Liverpool – Man U match will be the biggest betting match of the season so far, and possibly of the whole season. ‘There is unprecedented interest in this match given the build up to it and the various questions surrounding Liverpool’s form, Rafa’s future and the return of Michael Owen. Given the lack of draw so far in the Premiership, which has cost us fortunes, we could do with this match ending all square’ said William Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
