ENGLAND 20/1 TO WIN THE WORLD CUP BID, AND THE WORLD CUP!
Former favourites England are now 6/4 second favourites with William Hill to host the 2018 World Cup as the storm over Sunday Times allegations and the forthcoming Panorama show continues. ‘Punters certainly believe that the England bid has been damaged by this row, and before it broke they were odds on favourites, but have now been overtaken in the betting by Russia, the new favourites.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills offer 20/1 that England will both HOST the 2018 tournament, and also WIN it.
WILLIAM HILL …WORLD CUP HOSTS 2018…10/11 Russia; 6/4 England; 7/2 Spain/Portugal; 50/1 Holland/Belgium.

WHO’LL GO FIRST – AVRAM OR ROY?
WITH TROUBLED bosses Roy Hodgson and Avram Grant facing each other this weekend, William Hill are offering 4/6 that Grant will leave West Ham before Hodgson, 11/10 to do vice versa, departs Liverpool.
Grant, 11/8 still to be West Ham boss on the first day of next season with Hills, is 7/4 second favourite to be the NEXT Prem manager to leave his club, with Hodgson 7/2 third favourite. Ahead of both of them in Hill’s betting is 13/8 favourite Roberto Mancini. Hills also offer 12/1 Holloway, Hughton, McCarthy, with Martinez at 14/1.
