Punters Celebrate 440/1 Premier League Accumulator… England’s World Cup Bid Going Down The Panorama?

Punters Celebrate 440/1 Premier League Accumulator…

William Hill’s ‘Will Both Teams Score’ coupon has proved a staggering success with punters since it was first launched in August 2009. For the first time since the coupon’s inception, Hills have had to pay out on all twenty Premier League teams scoring. Already, from a standing start, the bet regularly takes more money than perennial football favourite – the correct score.

“As the first mainstream bookmaker to offer the bet – and one of the few to offer customers the option of betting on whether individual teams will or will not score, we were optimistic that it would prove popular, but it has exceeded all expectations and is now even out-performing the correct score turnover,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

The bet is not just limited to Premier League fixtures and punters can supplement their selections with games from the top four English divisions as well as SPL and FA Cup ties as well. Despite the fact that Blackburn’s Christopher Samba had a face like thunder when he headed in his consolation goal against Manchester United at the weekend, William Hill punters will have been all smiles as he completed a clean sweep on Saturday. Punters who backed all 20 sides to score will be wanting to kiss Martin Skrtel (although how pleased he will be about it is another matter) who completed the weekend’s scoring by netting at both ends at White Hart Lane!

“This weekend was a real headache for us as the price for all twenty teams to score was over 440/1 but the coupon is proving a real success. Most other bets would have been dead when Blackburn were 7-0 down on Saturday but it still gave our punters something to shout about. We will be hoping for a different outcome this weekend, however, when the price is 555/1 for all 20 to score,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

England’s World Cup Bid Going Down The Panorama?

Panorama are set to broadcast their controversial show on the World Cup bribing scandal tonight despite claims that it could harm England’s bid to host the competition. As it stands Russia are the 4/6 favourites to win the chance to host the 2018 World Cup with England the 9/4 second favourites.

“At the moment England are the second favourites to host the 2018 World Cup but we are fully expecting their odds to change after tonight’s show. Which way they will go is impossible to gauge. Come tomorrow morning, England could either be back in with a shout or out of the running completely,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

4/6 Russia; 9/4 England; 3/1 Portugal & Spain; 50/1 Belgium & Holland

The World Cup 2018 and 2022 bids host cities are being decided on 2nd December 2010 and William Hill make Russia the Even money favourite for 2018 and Qatar the 4/9 favourite for 2022. England’s bid for 2018 had been as short as 1/3, however, since the ‘cash-for-votes’ was exposed, the price has drifted out to 13/8.

“Having seemed destined at one point to have the World Cup on our doorstep, it now seems a trek to Russia will be in order in 2018,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill 2018 / 2022 World Cup Bids Odds:

2018: 1/1 Russia; 13/8 England; 11/4 Portugal & Spain; 50/1 Belgium & Holland

2022: 4/9 Qatar; 3/1 Australia; 9/2 USA; 33/1 Japan; 40/1 South Korea

Massive Gamble On Russia For 2018

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

In the last 24 hours, William Hill have seen a heavy gamble (including one bet of £2000) in the London area for Russia’s 2018 World Cup Bid and have subsequently slashed their odds from Even money to 4/6. This has pushed England’s odds out to 9/4 and Portugal and Spain’s bid is priced at 3/1. It is a long way since England were the massive odds on favourites a month ago and it now seems as if Russia have the upper hand with a decision imminent on Tuesday.

“As opposed to England, Russia seems to be attracting money at the right time and with decision day getting ever closer, it seems as if there is only one winner,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill World Cup 2018 World Cup Bid:

4/6 Russia; 9/4 England; 3/1 Portugal & Spain; 50/1 Belgium & Holland

Former favourites England are now 6/4 second favourites with William Hill to host the 2018 World Cup as the storm over Sunday Times allegations and the forthcoming Panorama show continues. ‘Punters certainly believe that the England bid has been damaged by this row, and before it broke they were odds on favourites, but have now been overtaken in the betting by Russia, the new favourites.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills offer 20/1 that England will both HOST the 2018 tournament, and also WIN it.

WILLIAM HILL …WORLD CUP HOSTS 2018…10/11 Russia; 6/4 England; 7/2 Spain/Portugal; 50/1 Holland/Belgium.

TO HOST 2022 WORLD CUP…..4/9 Qatar; 3/1 Australia; 9/2 USA; 33/1 Japan; 40/1 S Korea

WHO’LL GO FIRST – AVRAM OR ROY?

WITH TROUBLED bosses Roy Hodgson and Avram Grant facing each other this weekend, William Hill are offering 4/6 that Grant will leave West Ham before Hodgson, 11/10 to do vice versa, departs Liverpool.
Grant, 11/8 still to be West Ham boss on the first day of next season with Hills, is 7/4 second favourite to be the NEXT Prem manager to leave his club, with Hodgson 7/2 third favourite. Ahead of both of them in Hill’s betting is 13/8 favourite Roberto Mancini. Hills also offer 12/1 Holloway, Hughton, McCarthy, with Martinez at 14/1.
Liverpool are 4/7 with William Hill to beat West Ham, who are 11/2 with the draw 13/5.

Liverpool Backed To Escape Points Deduction

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

PUNTERS BET LIVERPOOL WILL GET AWAY WITHOUT POINTS DEDUCTION

WILLIAM HILL have slashed their odds that Liverpool will NOT be handed a Premier League points deduction this season from 1/3 to 1/6 – and now offer 7/2 from 9/4 that they will do so. ‘Punters seem convinced that Liverpool will not have to face a points deduction and it does seem very rare for bigger clubs to suffer the same sort of fate as smaller fry like Portsmouth and Southampton, so we have lengthened the odds that Liverpool will have one or more points deducted this season’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM HILL….Liverpool to have any Premier League points deducted for season 2010/11……1/6 NO; 7/2 YES.
