John Terry 1/4 To Miss Out On Euros Squad

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

John Terry will have woken the morning after possibly his worst performance in a Chelsea shirt, to see that his place in the England Euros squad is no certainty. William Hill make him just 1/4 to fail to make Roy Hodgson’s final 23 for Poland and the Ukraine. There are many saying that Terry and Rio Ferdinand will not be able to play in the same team and it would appear that Rio is the favoured candidate at the moment with Hills making him 4/11 to make the squad.

“This is the first real issue that Hodgson has had to deal with in his role as England manager and the odds suggest that Rio will get the nod for the Euros with Terry missing out,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

The last few games have seen somewhat of a renaissance for Andy Carroll and he is 5/6 to make the Euros squad while his manager went some way towards appeasing the Anfield faithful with Liverpool’s 4-1 win over Chelsea and he is 1/2 to be in charge of Liverpool on the first day of next season.

Will John Terry be in England’s Euro 2012 squad: 1/4 no; 11/4 yes

Will Rio Ferdinand be in England’s Euro 2012 squad: 4/11 yes; 2/1 no

Will Andy Carroll be in England’s Euro 2012 squad: 5/6 yes; 5/6 no

Will Kenny Dalglish be in charge of Liverpool on the first day of next season: 1/2 yes; 6/4 no

How Long Will Manchester Dominate For Now?

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

After two 2-0 victories for the two Manchester sides, the advantage stays on Manchester City and William Hill make them 1/9 to lift the Premier League trophy while Manchester United are 5/1. Following the dominance of both sides this season, Hills are now betting on when the League is won by anyone but the blues or reds from Manchester. Next season is the 7/4 favourite although it is 2/1 for the trophy to not be lifted by Manchester until 2015/16 or later.

“Despite the two sides being level on points, the fate of the Premier League trophy rests firmly with City and only an unlikely defeat to QPR next weekend will prevent them from lifting their first Premier League title,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

When will a non Manchester side win the Premier League: 7/4 2012/13; 11/4 2013/14; 9/2 2014/15; 2/1 2015/16 or later

Premier League Outright: 1/9 Manchester City; 5/1 Manchester United

Crouch Wonder Goal Stands Tall Over Rivals

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

Despite hitting a fantastic goal against Chelsea, Papiss Cisse is not at the top of the betting for this year’s Match of the Day Goal of the Season. Peter Crouch’s effort for Stoke vs Manchester City is 10/11 then followed by Cisse’s second effort at Stamford Bridge at 6/5. Luis Suarez’s effort from the halfway line against Norwich is the 6/1 third favourite followed by any other goal at 16/1.

“It looks like it will be a two horse race for the Goal of the Season honour and we think it could still go either way,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill BBC Match Of The Day Goal of the Season: 10/11 Peter Crouch; 6/5 Papiss Cisse; 6/1 Luis Suarez; 16/1 Any other

Bent Could Be Straight On The Plane To Poland

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

Darren Bent has provided Roy Hodgson with a boost, with the news that he could be back and playing in time for the European Championships and William Hill have cut the odds of him being called up to the squad from 4/1 to 7/2. He is 1/6 to be left at home.

“Darren Bent’s absence has been obvious as Villa have slumped down the table without his goals,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “England could find themselves in a similar situation without Wayne Rooney and Bent’s quality could be much needed.”

West Ham just missed out on automatic promotion to the Premier League and they are 13/8 favourites to win the Championship playoffs at Hills who go 5/2 Birmingham; 10/3 Blackpool and 10/3 Cardiff. It could be argued that West Ham should have been promoted easily and Hills offer 14/1 that West Ham go up and Sam Allardyce leaves the club before the start of the season.

English Championship Playoffs: 13/8 West Ham; 5/2 Birmingham; 10/3 Blackpool; 10/3 Cardiff

First Leg:

9/5 Cardiff; 17/10 West Ham; 2/1 Draw
6/4 Blackpool; 19/10 Birmingham; 21/10 Draw

BSP Playoffs: 2/1 Wrexham; 2/1 Mansfield; 10/3 Luton; 10/3 York

First Leg:

(tonight) 5/4 York; 11/5 Mansfield; 23/10 Draw
13/10 Luton; 21/10 Wrexham; 23/10 Draw

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

The race for fourth place took another twist as Newcastle won at Chelsea ad Spurs thumped a woeful Bolton Wanderers. Spurs are in to 1/5 to finish the season in the top four, with Arsenal 1/12 and Newcastle 5/2. Chelsea’s best hope of Champions League football next season is to win this year’s competition as they are now 20/1 to bag a top four spot.

At the other end of the table, Bolton are 10/3 with Hills to lose their final two games of the season. Bolton are 5/6 to be relegated with Blackburn 1/66 and QPR 5/6.

Relegation: 1/66 Blackburn; 5/6 QPR; 5/6 Bolton; 20/1 Wigan; 20/1 Aston Villa

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

Liverpool once again lost at home and Kenny Dalglish is 8/11 with William Hill to have left Liverpool by the start of next season (Evens to still be there). Liverpool are now 9/2 to finish above Everton at the end of the season with the Blues 1/8 to top their rivals for the first time in seven years.

“The wheels have fallen off the Liverpool revolution after a promising end to last season,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “Kenny could pay for it come the summer.”

City Steal Title March…8/15 To Win On Goal Difference

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

Manchester City took a vital win in the battle to land the Premier League and William Hill now make the blue half of Manchester 4/9 to be celebrating come the end of the season. Manchester United are 13/8. Despite the defeat, Hills make Ferguson 8/15 to outlast Mancini (11/8 not to). City now lead on goal difference and they are 8/15 to win the title in that way (United are 14/1 to do so).

“Manchester City have now stolen a march on their rivals with the finishing post firmly in sight, but a tricky fixture at Newcastle could well see their title ambitions tempered,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

A fantastic night of football was highlighted by the fact that Hills took well over a million pounds on the night and over 40,000 bets on the 90 minutes market alone. Over 20,000 bets were staked online in-running.

“Phew, our compilers deserve a rest after that,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “We were expecting a busy one but that far exceeded anyone’s expectations.”

Premier League outright: 4/9 City; 13/8 Utd

Win the title on goal difference: 8/15 City; 14/1 United

Who will leave first: 8/15 Mancini; 11/8 Ferguson

William Hill now make Blackburn … to be relegated this season, while QPR are … QPR’s defeat by five goals means that they are only five ahead of Bolton on goal difference and Hills offer 5/2 that any side are relegated on goal difference alone.

“As tight as it is at the top, it is also just as tight for that final relegation spot,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “It may well just go down to goal difference.”

Chelsea’s appearance in the Champions League Final means that fourth place may not necessarily earn a Champions League spot although Hills offer 6/4 that Tottenham grab fourth and play in the Champions League next season, while Arsenal are 11/2 to do so, Newcastle 7/1 and Chelsea 5/4.

To finish 4th place and play in next season’s champions league:

Arsenal 11/2
