WILL CITY BE DUNN OVER?

WITH BLACKBURN’S David Dunn quoted as saying that his side should ‘kick lumps’ out of Manchester City, William Hill have made the Rovers’ star a 20/1 shot to be sent off during the game, and opened a book on how many Blackburn players will be carded in the match, offering 16/1 that seven or more of them will see red or yellow.
Hills offer 8/1 that no Rovers player is booked; 3/1 just one; 9/4 two; 3/1 three; 6/1 four; 8/1 five; 12/1 six. ‘If Dunn and Blackburn wanted to keep on the right side of the ref in this match, he seems to have gone a strange way about it’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

BURN-ING MONEY?
WILLIAM HILL have taken a bet of £300 on Burnley winning the Premiership at odds of 2500/1 – in a Hampstead, London betting shop. ‘It is fair to say that this was the most unexpected bet we have taken on the title race, and we have cut their odds to, er, 2000/1’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘But it wasn’t such a shock to take a £10,000 bet on Manchester City, in the form of a £5000 each-way wager. Burnley and City are our worst potential outcomes in the title race but it is fair to say we are taking one of them more seriously than the other!’
LATEST WILLIAM HILL PREMIERSHIP TITLE ODDS: 15/8 Chelsea; 23/10 Man U; 4 Liverpool; 9 Arsenal; 11 Man City; 125 Spurs; 200 Everton; Villa; 500 West Ham;2000 Burnley.

PUNTERS BET ON BROKEN HART

Portsmouth’s Paul Hart has been the heaviest backed manager in William Hill’s ‘first Premiership boss to go’ market. Hart is now 4/1 favourite, having been backed down from 6/1, with Phil Brown and Alex McLeish the 9/2 joint second favourites, and Mark Hughes 6/1 fourth favourite. ‘Pompey’s financial woes and their lacklustre form at the end of the last campaign undoubtedly explain the gamble on Hart, but if their takeover goes through shortly and they are able to bring players in, their situation could change rapidly’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
HILLS: FIRST PREM BOSS TO GO…4/1 Hart; 9/2 Brown; McLeish; 6/1 Hughes;16 Martinez;McCarthy; Megson; 20 Benitez; Hodgson; Pulis; Zola; 25 Ancelotti; Allardyce; Bruce; 28 Wenger; 33 Coyle; O’Neill; Redknapp; 40 Moyes; Ferguson
WILLIAM HILL RELEGATION ODDS….4/7 Burnley; 4/5 Birmingham; 4/5 Hull; 6/4 Portsmouth; 13/8 Wolves; 3/1 Stoke; 4/1 Wigan; 7/1 Bolton; 8/1 Blackburn; 9/1 Sunderland.
