’URRY UP ‘ARRY – ENGLAND EXPECTS……!
Following Spurs’ outstanding win in Milan, masterminded by Harry Redknapp, William Hill cut his odds from 3/1 to 5/2 to become the next permanent England manager – and have had to cut their odds further, from 5/2 to 2/1 favourite as football fans backed him to succeed Capello.

‘Most football fans have a soft spot for ‘Arry, as he is frequently known, and it appears that most punters – even Spurs’ fans – are convinced he is the man to restore England’s fortunes once Capello as finally been prised away from the job’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM HILL…NEXT PERMANENTLY APPOINTED ENGLAND MANAGER….2/1 Harry Redknapp; 6/1 Martin O’Neill; 8/1 Stuart Pearce; 8/1 Gareth Southgate; 9/1 Roy Hodgson; 12/1 Sam Allardyce; 12/1 Steve Bruce; 14/1 Alan Shearer.

Hughton Heavily Backed To Be Baggies Boss

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

Chris Hughton has been heavily backed in the last two hours to succeed Roberto Di Matteo as the next permanent West Brom manager. Having been priced at 10/1 yesterday, the former Newcastle boss is the 6/4 favourite with William Hill and already results in a high four figure loss. Current caretaker manager Michael Appleton the 3/1 second favourite. Early front runner, Sam Allardyce has drifted from 6/5 to 3/1 with Martin Jol 5/1.

“Any new West Brom appointment would have to work under a ‘sporting and technical director’ which could explain why Allardyce has drifted, as it can be certain that he would want the final say so in any transfer dealings,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Next West Brom Manager Odds: 6/4 Chris Hughton; 3/1 Michael Appleton; 3/1 Sam Allardyce; 5/1 Martin Jol; 6/1 Derek McInnes; 8/1 Roy Hodgson; 16/1 Gus Poyet; 16/1 Alan Curbishley; 16/1 Billy Davies; 20/1 Paul Lambert; 20/1 Aidy Boothroyd; 20/1 Tony Mobray; 20/1 Martin O’Neill; 20/1 Paul Ince; 20/1 Brendan Rodgers; 20/1 Sean O’Driscoll; 25/1 Glenn Hoddle (others on request)

Moyes Out Gamble Subsides

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

YOU BET ‘MOYES TO QUIT’ RUMOUR WAS MISPLACED.

DAVID MOYES was cut from 16/1 to 3/1 by William Hill to be the next Premier League manager to leave his club as a gamble developed during the early part of Wednesday that he was about to leave Everton. But with no supporting evidence to back up the claims, his odds have drifted back out, doubling to 6/1. ‘Given that the market often anticipates managerial departures – Sam Allardyce was gambled on significantly just before he quit out of the blue earlier this season, for example’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Share, ‘But in this instance as there was no particularly worrying pattern to the gamble, or substantial bets involved we quickly decided that this rumour was probably based on Moyes’ frustration and outspoken comments after Tuesday night’s defeat to Arsenal, and pushed the odds back out without being knocked over in the rush to get on.’
HILLS NOW MAKE AVRAM GRANT 4/7 FAVOURITE TO BE THE NEXT PREM BOSS TO GO, WITH MOYES 6/1 ALONG WITH DI MATTEO; 10 HUGHES; MARTINEZ; 12 MCLEISH; 12 ANCELOTTI.
David Moyes is 4/11 with Hills still to be Everton boss on the first day of next season, 2/1 not to. ‘You can’t really see Moyes leaving Everton where he is so highly regarded unless he is tempted away by one of the so-called glamour clubs’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

HARRY REDKNAPP BACKED TO BE NEXT PREM BOSS OUT

WILLIAM HILL have cut their odds about Harry Redknapp being the next Premier League manager to leave his job from 66/1 to 25/1 after a rush of bets from punters believing that if Fabio Capello decides to jump ship from England to Inter, the Spurs’ boss could be in line for the England managerial job. ‘We have seen a number of admittedly modest bets for Harry to be the next boss out, but that would only be a logical bet in the event that Fabio Capello was going to leave his England role – and we offer 8/1 that that happens before the end of the year’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Meanwhile, Hills have also trimmed Harry from 2/1 to 6/4 favourite to be the next permanent England manager and also offer 9/2 Martin O’Neill; 5/1 Stuart Pearce; 11/2 Roy Hodgson; 10/1 Steve Bruce; 12/1 Sam Allardyce. Others on request.

NEXT PREM BOSS TO GO……8/15 Grant; 2/1 Mancini; 9/2 Hodgson; 9 McCarthy; 9 Ancelotti; 25 Redknapp. Others on request.

BOOKIES NOT KEAN ON NEW BLACKBURN BOSS STEVE!

WITH Steve Kean being appointed as Blackburn manager, William Hill are already offering odds of 5/6 that he will be OUT of the job by the first day of next season.’
Since Sam Allardyce left Blackburn they have been one of the best backed teams to be relegated and are now down to 7/1 for the drop’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
And Hills make Kean 28/1 to be the NEXT Premier League manager to leave his job.
Hills have paid out to customers who backed Kean to get the job – but say that anyone who backed any other contender to become the next Blackburn manager will have their bet carried over until Kean is succeeded by the next permanent boss at the club. ‘As it is Christmas, we are paying out on Kean, but letting all other bets on the market stand until the manager after Kean is permanently appointed’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.’We think punters may not have long to wait to find out who that will be.’

STEVE KEAN to be Blackburn manager on first day of next season – 5/6 NO; 5/6 YES
STEVE KEAN TO be next Prem manager of this season to leave his job – 28/1
BLACKBURN to be relegated – 7/1 yes; 1/16 no.
