BOOKIES SHAKEN AS WAYNE SNUBS TERRY

‘We cut our odds once from 13/8 to 11/10 and then again to 5/6 as punters poured cash on the Bridge snub’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘It will cost us a five figure sum – so we’re shaken- but not stirred enough to rule out similar bets in the future as they create a huge talking point.’
HILLS OFFER 10/1 THAT BRIDGE WILL CHANGE HIS MIND AND MAKE HIMSELF AVAILABLE FOR 2010 WORLD CUP SELECTION.
