ROONEY BACKED TO GET TWO MATCH+ EURO BAN

WILLIAM HILL have cut their odds for Wayne Rooney to be banned for two games or more following his sending off against Montenegro from 11/4 to 7/4. We havent taken any particularly hefty individual bets but the overwhelming majority of those we have taken are for an extended suspension said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills now offer 2/5 that he will be banned for just the one game.

FIFTH FOREST FAVOURITE

MARK ROBINS is the fifth contender to become favourite to succeed Steve McClaren as Forest manager with William Hil who make the former Barnsley boss 2/1 to take over, ahead of 9/4 second favourite Steve Cotterill; 5/2 Roy Keane; 7/2 Nigel Clough; 11/2 Kevin MacDonald; 9/1 John Pemberton.
As seems to be par for the course with so many such markets, the Forest managerial merry-go-round has been a volatile one and you wouldnt be over surprised if there were another five favourites before the issue is finally resolved said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.

PUNTERS KEANE TO BACK ROY FOR FOREST

William Hill have suspended their market for who will be the next Nottingham Forest manager after taking a bet of £5000 on Roy Keane at odds of 2/1, shortening him to Even money but continuing to be asked for hefty wagers at that price.

There have been a number of well backed contenders to succeed Steve McClaren such as Karl Robinson, Billy Davies and Alan Shearer but after seeing a string of bets of up to £5000 for Roy Keane with little support for anybody else, we have decided to suspend the market in case an appointment is imminent, said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILL McCLAREN GET FOREST OUT OF THE WOODS?

WILLIAM HILL make Nottingham Forest 12/1 to win the Championship and 4/1 to be promoted following the appointment of Steve McClaren as manager. Hills also go 1/ 4 that they will finish in the top half of the table, 11/4 in the bottom half, and 20/1 that they will be relegated.

And Hills are betting on when McClaren and Forest will part company and offer 20/1 that he has a short stay which comes to an end during 2011.

Forest were already regarded as serious title contenders and the appointment of McClaren can only enhance that profile said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe, As long as he remembers to leaves his umbrellas at home!

Despite the Venkys Group maintaining that they want to appoint an English manager to replace Sam Allardyce at Blackburn, it is Dutchman Martin Jol who heads the betting at William Hill at 4/1. He is then followed by a veritable army of British and Irish managers, with Dave Jones and Chris Hughton both 5/1 and Alan Curbishley at 6/1.

Martin Jol performed well during his time at Tottenham and he is currently out of a job, however, should the fact that he is not British count against him, Dave Jones, Chris Hughton and Alan Curbishley are all waiting in the wings, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.
