Aaron Ramsey has been confirmed as the Wales captain for the match against England and William Hill have reacted by enhancing the price for him to score first from 16/1 to 25/1. This offer will be available exclusively online from 3 o’clock Thursday until kick off on Saturday.

When Will Sir Alex Ferguson Next Speak To BBC Match Of The Day:
5/2 This Season
8/11 Next Season
11/4 Not In The Next Two Seasons

Wales Lengthened As England Are Baled Out…has Jack The Lad Spelled The End For Lamps?

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

Following the news that Gareth Bale has pulled out of the Wales squad to face England, William Hill have shortened England, from 4/9 to 2/5, to win the match at the Millennium Stadium on Saturday. Wales are now 15/2, having been 6/1, while the draw is 10/3.

“It goes to show how important a player Gareth Bale is for Wales. Not even Ryan Giggs in his pomp withdrawing from the squad would have affected the odds this much,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Jack Wilshere looks set to start ahead of Frank Lampard in the Wales game but Hills feel that this is just a small blip and have Lamps as the 11/10 favourite to start more Euro 2012 qualifiers than either Steven Gerrard or Jack Wilshere. Hills also offer 5/4 that he plays all five of England’s remaining Euro qualifiers.

“There has been a great deal of discussion over the years about accommodating both Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard in the centre of midfield, but the odds appear to suggest that the experiment will continue until at least the start of Euro 2012,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Wales / England Odds:

90 Minutes: 15/2 Wales; 2/5 England; 10/3 Draw

How Many More Euro Qualifying Games Will Frank Lampard Start: 10/1 None; 20/1 One; 16/1 Two; 7/2 Three; 2/1 Four; 5/4 All Five

Who Will Start More Qualifying Games In 2011: 11/10 Frank Lampard; 5/4 Gerrard; 4/1 Jack Wilshere

Frank Lampard To Quit International Football In 2011: 7/2 Yes; 1/6 No

Matt Jarvis To Play Any Part In Euro 2011 Qualification: 8/11 Yes; 1/1 No

David Beckham To Play Any Part In Euro 2011 Qualification: 9/4 Yes; 1/3 No

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

William Hill FIFA Presidency Odds:

Outright: 1/3 Sepp Blatter; 9/4 Mohammed bin Hammam
