City Running Out Of Games But Giving It A Go

Manchester City defeated Norwich resoundingly but United are 1/5 favourites to win the Premier League (Manchester City are 10/3). Manchester United are 5/1 to win the league by seven or more points, although, a margin of three or four points is the favourite at 5/2. City are 8/1 to win the league on goal difference.

“City still have the chance to claw back the title from United but with games running out, it looks as though they will just miss out,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

How many points will Manchester United win the league by: 5/1 seven or more; 4/1 five or six; 5/2 three or four; 11/4 one or two; 20/1 goal difference; 10/3 not win the league

How many points will Manchester City win the league by: 1/5 not win the league; 8/1 goal difference; 8/1 one point; 6/1 two points; 20/1 three points or more

You Bet Olympic Saga Could Be Sorted Soon…

West Ham are allegedly growing frustrated with the lack of movement on the Olympic Stadium front. William Hill think that any problems should be sorted out by 2015, offering 2/7 that any team (in any professional division) is playing or has played a full season of home league matches at the Olympic Stadium by 2015.

“The Olympic Stadium saga has been running for quite a while now, but we think that once the Olympics are out of the way, the Stadium issue will become number one priority and should be sorted relatively quickly,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly

A team to play a full season/be playing a full season of home league matches at the Olympic Stadium by 2015: 2/7 yes; 5/2 no

Ash To Cash In As Contract Runs Down ?

ASH TO CASH IN AS CONTRACT RUNS OUT?

WITH Ashley Cole rumoured to be the subject of potential big money bids from Barcelona and mega-rich Russian club, Anzhi Makhachkala, William Hill have opened a book on where he will be playing on the first day of the next Premier League season and make him odds-on still to be at Chelsea. ‘We are all aware that Ashley Cole takes into account the amount of financial reward on offer before deciding who to play for, particularly with his contract now running down, so it is not impossible that he could be tempted away from Stamford Bridge for the right price said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

William Hill : Ashley Cole’s Club 1st Day Of 12/13 Prem Season?
Chelsea 1/4
Barcelona 5/1
Real Madrid 7/1
Man City 10/1
Man Utd 16/1
Anzhi Makhachkala 20/1
Arsenal 33/1

Harry Redknapp is the 1/1 favourite to be the next Chelsea boss, but it has been Marco van Basten that they have been backing today, trimmed from 4/1 to 5/2.

Hugh Bet Chris In Running For Hammers

HUGH BET HAMMERS WILL CHOOSE CHRIS!

WILLIAM HILL make Chris Hughton 6/4 favourite to be appointed the next permanent West Ham manager but say no one contender is currently dominating the betting. ‘Since the opening flurry of support for Steve McLaren, which ended when he became an odds-on shot only to apparently rule himself out of the running, the market has not seen anyone really dominate – but it will happen, and sooner rather than later if the club do as they are suggesting, and appoint someone probably British, before the end of the month’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. ‘We’ve seen solid support for Hughton while Messrs Alladryce, Warnock and McKay are attracting punters. One suspects that play-off results may also well have an influence in the ultimate outcome’.

WILLIAM HILL – NEXT PERMANENT WEST HAM MANAGER- 6/4 Hughton; 6/1 Allardyce; Warnock; 7/1 O’Neill; 8/1 Curbishley; Di Canio; Di Matteo; Keen; McKay; 10/1 Bilic; Jones; McLaren; Poyet 14 Davies; Jol; 16 Lambert; Rodgers. Others on request.

Will Second Bite Of The Cherry Get Fergie’s Son Into Old Trafford Hotseat?

William Hill are offering 25/1 that Peterborough win League 1 and 50/1 that Darren Ferguson is Sir Alex Ferguson’s replacement at Manchester United. For Ferguson to get Peterborough into the Premier League within five years is 16/1.

“Because of his family ties, Ferguson will always be in the running for the Manchester United job, however, the odds suggest that Fergie Sr’s retirement, when it comes, will be a touch too early for his son,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Hills are also offering odds on how many Manchester United players Peterborough take on loan during January and are offering 5/6 that none make the move. It is 3/1 that one swaps Old Trafford for London Road and 2/1 that two do.

William Hill Peterborough/Darren Ferguson Odds:

How Many Manchester United Players Will Peterborough Take On Loan (January signings only): 5/6 None; 2/1 Two; 3/1 One

What Division Will Darren Ferguson’s Next Job Be In: 13/8 League 1; 9/4 Championship; 3/1 League Two; 4/1 Other; 16/1 Premier League

16/1 Darren Ferguson to lead Peterborough to the Premier League within five years

50/1 D. Ferguson to be the next permanent Manchester United manager

25/1 Peterborough to win League 1 this season
