Goal Line Technology Imminent – You Can Bet On That

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

GOAL LINE TECHNOLOGY ODDS-ON BEFORE 2013

WILLIAM HILL believe it is an odds-on chance that goal line technology will be used in the Premier League before the end of next year. ’It appears that the inevitable introduction of goal-line technology is moving ever closer’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

William Hill: Year of the first Premier League match to use goal line technology:

by the end of 2012 4/6
2013 9/4
2014 or later 7/2

FIRST PREM BOSS TO LEAVE WILL GO IN DECEMBER – BET ON IT

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on when the first Premier League boss will leave his job this season – and Hills go 2/5 that it will happen in December. ‘Several managers are under severe pressure at the moment and we fully expect that one or more wil go before the New Year’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
For the first time, Andre Villas Boas is odds on to be out of his job as Chelsea boss by the first game of next season with WILLIAM HILL, who make AVB 9/2 fourth favourite to be the next Premier League manager to leave his club this season. Hills currently make Steve Kean 6/4 favourite with Steve Bruce 9/4 second favourite, Roberto Martinez 5/2 third favourite.
Hills also offer: 7/1 Owen Coyle; 8/1 Alex McLeish; 12/1 Mick McCarthy; 14/1 Harry Redknapp.
‘We are beginning to see money for ‘no managers’ to lose their jobs this season, but are happy to leave the price at 10/1 as we cannot envisage that happening’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

In which month will the 1st Premier League manager leave:

November 8/1
December 2/5
January 4/1
February or March 7/1
April until final day of season 20/1

HILLS…Next Chelsea Manager: 5/4 Guus Hiddink; 5/1 Jose Mourinho; 6/1 Marco van Basten; 8/1 Pep Guardiola; 16/1 Frank Rijkaard; 16/1 Mark Hughes; 16/1 Fabio Capello; 16/1 David Moyes; 20/1 Rafael Benitez

YOU BET TORRES COULD BE ON WAY OUT, TOO…….

WITH FERANDO TORRES left on the bench for Chelsea’s Champions League defeat by Leverkusen, William Hill are betting on where the troubled striker will be playing on the first day of next season:

Where Will Torres Be 1st Day of 12/13 season?
Chelsea 4/7
Man City 7/1
Malaga 10/1
Real Madrid 10/1
Atl Madrid 12/1
Man Utd 14/1
Barcelona 16/1
Tottenham 16/1
Arsenal 20/1
Liverpool 25/1

Others on request. Loan deals do not count.

UNITED 20/1 TO WIN EUROPA LEAGUE

WILLIAM HILL make Manchester United 20/1 to win the Europa League this season, with Man City 7/1, and Chelsea 16/1. ‘Some big clubs could find themselves unexpectedly in the Europa League this season and if so it will be interesting to see what sort of appetite they might have to win it’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Europa League Outright:

Man Utd 20/1
Chelsea 16/1
Man City 7/1

**If the stated teams do not take part in the Europa league 11/12, bets are losers.

WILLIAM HILL…..Premier League team to go furthest in Champions League: 6/4 Man U; 2/1 Chelsea; 9/4 Arsenal; 7/1 Man C;

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

NOW STEVE BRUCE IS FAVOURITE TO BE NEXT BOSS OUT

AS THE SUNDERLAND fans began to show displeasure with their manager, Steve Bruce, William Hill made him 11/8 favourite to be the first Premier League manager to depart this season. ‘Steve Bruce has been there or thereabouts, but the reaction of the fans persuaded us to make him clear favourite for the first time’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Despite Blackburn Rovers losing again, their manager, Steve Kean, former favourite to be the first boss out, is now 7/4 second favourite with Hills who also offer 4/1 Coyle; 7/1 Martinez; 10/1 AVB; McLeish; 14/1 McCarthy; 16/1 Redknapp – and, least likely of all,perhaps, 25/1 that no manager goes all season!

In which month will the 1st Premier League manager leave:

November 5/1
December 8/15
January 4/1
February or March 7/1
April until final day of season 20/1

MANCHESTER CITY are 10/1 with William Hill to remain undefeated for the entire Premier League season. And Hills are betting on who may be the first side to beat them this season, with Liverpool 9/5 to be the first to inflict defeat. City are 11/8 to maintain their 5 point cushion at the top of the table following this round of games and 6/4 to set a new record total of 104 or more Premier League goals this season. ‘City are the team to beat this season and after their Champions League setback in midweek they will be keen to regain momentum’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

City PL Goals 2011/12

Over 103.5 6/4
Under 103.5 1/2

When will Man City next lose a PL match?

Liverpool (A) 9/5
Norwich (H) 16/1
Chelsea (A) 3/1
Arsenal (H) 8/1
Stoke (H) 16/1
To lose none of these 13/8
