******************************WILLIAM HILL WAYNE ROONEY SPECIALS*************************************************************************

Fergie now odds on to quit United before Rooney does:
ROONEY 11/4 TO QUIT UNITED IN 2011 – 2/1 TO STAY UNTIL 2015

WILLIAM HILL, who were the first bookmakers to react and close their book on Rooney remaining at United when punters poured cash on him to do so early on Friday morning, have now opened a book on when he will eventually leave the club and make him 2/1 to stay until at least 2015; 11/4 to go in 2011; 7/2 in 2012; 4/1 in 2013 and 9/2 in 2014.
‘We detected a determined gamble on Rooney staying when we received reports from a number of our shops in the Liverpool area that punters were trying to place three and four figure bets on him to remain beyond January next year, so reacted quickly and closed the book’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. ‘We’re not entirely convinced that Wayne will be able to settle down and carry on where he left off, so we aren’t prepared to offer too generous odds that he’ll leave during 2011.’
HILLS NOW MAKE SIR ALEX 1/ 4 TO LEAVE UNITED BEFORE ROONEY, AN 11/4 SHOT TO GO FIRST, DOES SO.
With Rooney having suggested that he wanted to be convinced that United would be beefing up their squad, Hills are betting on who may join the club before the start of next season and make Torres 9/2 to arrive there, Forlan 7/2 to come back and Jack Rodwell a 9/4 chance.

YOU BET WAYNE WILL GO FOR £31 MILLION OR MORE

WILLIAM HILL have cut their odds for Wayne Rooney to be sold for £31million or more from 7/2 to 3/1, after 90% of the bets they have taken in the market backed him to go for their highest quoted amount.
‘There is a theory that Wayne may opt to buy out his own contract, and a few punters have backed that eventuality, but the vast majority are convinced that he is going to go for mega-money of at least £31million’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Champion’s League Final Odds On To Feature A British Team!

Two relatively easy victories for Chelsea and Arsenal tonight have lead William Hill to shorten both teams’ odds of winning this year’s Champion’s League. Chelsea are now 4/1 joint second favourites, having been 9/2 at the start of play and Arsenal, following their demolition of Shakhtar, are priced at 10/1, cut from 11/1.

Hills are also offering odds of 5/6 that there is one British representative in the Champion’s League Final. For an all British affair, Hills are offering 11/2.

“The two teams in action tonight were so impressive in the nature of their victory, it would not be surprising for either of them to make the final,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Chelsea are the 7/5 favourites to be the furthest advancing British team in this year’s competition with Manchester United priced at 9/4.

William Hill Champion’s League Odds:

Outright: 11/4 Barcelona; 4/1 Chelsea; 4/1 Real Madrid; 10/1 Manchester United; 10/1 Arsenal; 14/1 Inter Milan; 14/1 Bayern Munich; 25/1 AC Milan; 28/1 Tottenham; 40/1 Lyon; 50/1 BAR

British Teams In The Final: 11/8 None; 5/6 Exactly One; 11/2 Two

British Team To Advance The Furthest: 7/5 Chelsea; 9/4 Manchester United; 5/2 Arsenal; 15/2 Tottenham; 33/1 Rangers

ROO BET WAYNE’S GOING BECAUSE HE HATES FERGIE!
WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on the first public statement Wayne Rooney will give of the reason he has decided to leave Manchester United – and they offer odds of 13/2 (six and a half to one) that it will turn out to be because of his dislike of boss Sir Alex Ferguson.
‘Sir Alex says he is bemused at Rooney’s decision to quit United – maybe the answer is that Fergie himself is the problem!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

William Hill……Wayne Rooney’s Reason For Leaving Man U:

I want a new challenge……7/4
I want to move abroad……10/3
Fed up with carrying the team on my own….7/2
I don’t like Alex Ferguson….13/2
Man Utd lack ambition……8/1
Getting divorced…..14/1
The Glazers………………….20/1
I want to play for a bigger club…..25/1
I want more money……………..33/1
Manchester power shift………………50/1
I’ve always been a Man City fan….100/1
I want to become England manager…..150/1
Announcing retirement………….250/1

(Bets will be settled on first reason stated by Rooney in his first official press conference.)

Hodgson Favourite To Be Next Boss Out

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

As Liverpool shortest ever price to be relegated:
NOW HODGSON FAVOURITE TO BE NEXT PREM BOSS OUT!

ROY HODGSON is now favourite with William Hill to be the next Premier League manager to lose his job this season, following Liverpool’s lacklustre display against Everton. ‘The new owners have said they want to give Hodgson their backing, but everyone knows how vulnerable bosses are if they lose the fans, and capitulating to your deadliest rivals is not the best way to keep them on your side ‘ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
WILLIAM HILL HAVE SLASHED LIVERPOOL FROM 18/1 TO 11/1 TO BE RELEGATED – THE SHORTEST ODDS AT WHICH THEY HAVE BEEN QUOTED IN PREMIER LEAGUE HISTORY. AND HILLS ALSO OFFER 80/1 THAT THEY WILL FINISH BOTTOM OF THE TABLE. ‘Liverpool being quoted at just 11/1 for the drop this season, is something we’d have offered longer odds than 11/1about at the start of the campaign!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Hills… Roy Hodgson to leave Liverpool before the end of the season?
Yes 5/6

ROONEY BACKED TO LEAVE UNITED

WILLIAM HILL have cut their odds for Wayne Rooney to leave Manchester United after punters backed him to go following Sunday newspaper stories suggesting he could soon be on his way out of Old Trafford.
‘Very few punters are interested in backing Wayne still to be a United player at the start of next season and we have cut the odds about him going both during the coming January transfer window – from 7/1 to 13/2, and at the end of the season but before the start of next from 7/2 to 3/1’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
And Hills no longer even make Rooney favourite to top score in the Premier League this season for his own club, offering him at 15/8 to do so – behind favourite Dimitar Berbatov, who currently has a five goal lead over Rooney.

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on which Premier League side will be handed the most red cards during this season, and make Bolton their 11/2 favourites, just ahead of Arsenal, with Chelsea and Manchester United the complete outsiders. ‘Red cards are suddenyl newsworthy after Danny Murphy’s recent comments so we have decided to open a book on who’ll end up the most red-faced at the end of the campaign’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Fergie Odds On To Stand Down Before Rooney Leaves

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

United 33/1 to stay unbeaten all season, but:
YOU BET ROONEY WILL STILL BE AT UNITED WHEN FERGIE’S NO LONGER BOSS!

WILLIAM HILL are betting on who will leave his role at Manchester United first – Sir Alex Ferguson, or Wayne Rooney – and offer 4/7 that Sir Alex will cease to be manager before Rooney ceases to be a player there. ‘We think United would be reluctant to part with Rooney in the next couple of seasons, and that Sir Alex is more likely to retire before Wayne moves on’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
HILLS MAKE UNITED , THE LAST UNBEATEN SIDE IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE, 33/1 TO REMAIN UNDEFEATED ALL SEASON.
Hills believe that Fergie will recall Rooney to the starting line up for the midweek Champions League game against Bursaspor, and that Wayne is a 7/1 shot to leave the club during the January 2011 transfer window – and 7/2 to do so during the close season between the current and next seasons.

FIRST TO LEAVE POSITION – 4/7 FERGIE 5/4 ROONEY

William Hill…..Rooney To start v Bursaspor – YES 1/4….NO 11/4

To Leave Jan – YES 7/1 NO 1/16

To Leave close season – YES 7/2 NO 1/6
