Oasis Factor Kicks In For Cup Final

************************************WILLIAM HILL FA CUP FINAL SPECIALS***************************

Hills out to ‘get’ City, but:
8/13 MANCHESTER SATURDAY GLORY DOUBLE – UNITED TO CLINCH TITLE, CITY TO LIFT FA CUP

WILLIAM HILL offer 8/13 that Saturday will be a double glory day for Manchester football – with United clinching the Premier League title, followed by City lifting the FA Cup. ‘We’re offering 8/13 that the two Manchester clubs wrap up their respective trophy targets on Saturday’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills say they are keen to oppose Man City winning in 90m. ‘The perceived wisdom appears to be that Man City have the class to steamroller Stoke within 90 minutes – but we beg to differ, and will be looking to maintain a very competitive price – currently 10/11- about City doing that – and are happy to back our opinion to the tune of at least one million pounds’ added Sharpe.
Despite competition from Premier League matches, William Hill expect the FA Cup Final to produce the biggest betting turnover of any domestic match this season: ‘We anticipate a betting turnover of around £15m on the Cup Final – which may well be helped by the Premier League games encouraging punters to have accumulator bets. But the biggest club match of the season in turnover terms is odds-on to be the forthcoming Champions League Final’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Stoke 5/4 For Euro Exit At The First…tevez 8/13 To Leave Before Next Season

Manchester City are 2/5 with William Hill to win this year’s FA Cup and are 5/6 to win during 90 minutes. Whatever the result, however, Stoke have qualified for the Europa League, however, victory in the tournament does not appear likely, with the Potters offered at 80/1. A more likely outcome is an exit in the qualifying stages, offered at 5/4. Stoke’s manager Tony Pulis is 4/1 to be named LMA manager of the year. Manchester City, on the other hand, have qualified for the Champions League and Hills are betting on who Mancini will reinforce his squad with first in the summer, making Gary Cahill the 6/1 favourite, followed by Leighton Baines at 8/1. Carlos Tevez had a set-to with Mancini during the Tottenham game and Hills now make him odds on, at 8/13 to have left City by the first game of next season.

“With both sides competing for their first major trophy since the seventies, City appear to have the upper hand,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “But it could be argued that with European football secured for next season, the hard work begins in earnest after the FA Cup Final.”

Martin 5/1 To Make West Brom Jolly…avram Next? 13/10 Two More To Tumble!

William Hill have seen a lot of activity in the market for the next West Brom manager. The most popular choices from Hills punters have been Martin Jol, who has been backed in from 16/1 to 5/1, while Chris Hughton is 7/2 second favourite, in from 10/1. Sam Allardyce is the 6/5 favourite, with Derek McInnes at 4/1. Former Liverpool boss, Roy Hodgson is 8/1.

“Despite Di Matteo only having vacated his post on Sunday, there has already been a lot of activity and our punters seem to think that Martin Jol could finally make a return to the Premier League having been linked with almost every available job since the summer,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Charlie Adam Odds On To Go……..20/1 Pulis Punch Up

***************************************WILLIAM HILL WEEKEND PREMIER LEAGUE SPECIALS*******************

WILL CHARLIE STILL BE BLACKPOOL’S DARLING BY FEBRUARY?

WILLIAM HILL make Blackpool’s Charlie Adam an odds-on shot to leave the club during the January transfer window – quoting him at 8/11 to go and Evens still to be a Tangerine when the window closes. ‘Ian Holloway is talking up his chances of holding on to Charlie Adam, but the vultures may be circling over Bloomfield Road’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

CITY 5/1 TO BE FIRST TEAM TO BEAT UNITED

WILLIAM HILL, who make Manchester United 11/1 to remain undefeate all season in the Premier League, make Chelsea 10/3 favourites to be the first club to loower their colours this season, with neighbours Manchester City 5/1 second favourites. ‘The majority of football pundits keep insisting that United are not good enough to remain undefeated all season, and they just carry on remaining undefeated’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

MEANWHILE, HILLS HAVE CUT THEIR ODDS ABOUT UNITED REMAINING UNBEATEN ALL SEASON – BUT STILL FAILING TO WIN THE LEAGUE TITLE FROM 100/1 TO 50/1. ‘A few punters stepped in for the 100/1 and it is far from an impossible scenario’ said Sharpe.

WILL PULIS AND HUGHES SHAKE EACH OTHER WARMLY BY THE HAND – OR, PERHAPS, THROAT?

WILLIAM HILL are offering 20/1 that Tony Pulis and Mark Hughes will come to blows at any stage of this weekend’s Fulham v Stoke match after bad feeling grew up between them during the past two games before the sides. And Hills are offering 2/1 that the pair will not shake hands after the final whistle (must be shown on tv) of the game, and 4/11 that they will. ‘The Hughes-Pulis affair is beginning to turn into a long-running feud to rival Bridge versus Terry – but maybe they will bury the hatchet this weekend – hopefully not in each other!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

YOU BET GUNNERS ON COURSE TO END TROPHY FAMINE

WITH Arsene Wenger and Arsenal suffering five seasons without a trophy, William Hill are betting that they finish their trophy famine with a vengeance this season, and make them 2/1 to win NO trophies again, but 9/2 to take both the Prem and Carling; 8/1 FA Cup/Carling; 14/1 Prem/FA cup; 25 Carling/Ch Lg; 66/1 FA Cup/ Champs Lg; 66/1 Prem/FA/Ch Lg; 100/1 Carling/FA/Ch Lg; 300/1 all four trophies. ‘This is beginning to look like the season Arsenal end their famine in style’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

SO, IF O’NEILL ISN’T GOING TO WEST HAM, WHERE WILL HE REAPPEAR?

WITH Martin O’Neill’s rumoured return to management at West Ham now apparently ruled out, William Hill have opened a book on whether he will be back in management before the first day of the next Premier League season – and if so, where? Hills make Liverpool 5/1 to be his next port of call within that timeframe.
‘O’Neill is too big a managerial talent and too active a man to want to remain in exile for an extended period of time, so he seems almost certain to return to management – but when and where will that be?’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
KING KENNY 22/1 NOT TO GET A WIN FOR ANOTHER FIVE GAMES AT LEAST

KENNY DALGLISH has yet to lead Liverpool to victory and William Hill have opened a book on when that will finally happen – and make Liverpool Even money shots to win their next game against Fulham, and 22/1 NOT to win any of their next five.
Despite Liverpool having yet to win under Dalglish, he is 5/4 favourite to get the Liverpool job on a permanent basis with William Hill who also offer 9/2 Rijkaard; 11/2 Coyle; 7 Rangnick; 8 Villas-Boas; 10/1 Martin O’Neill. ‘Kenny has drifted from odds-on to odds-against and if Liverpool don;t start winning soon he may become an outsider in the betting to be next permanent boss’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

LIVERPOOL ARE 4/5 WITH HILLS TO FINISH HIGHER THAN EVERTON, WHO ARE 10/11 TO DO VICE VERSA.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE BENT TO GET OFF MARK FOR VILLA?
WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on when Darren Bent will score his first goal for Villa and make the game against Manchester City their 15/8 favourites, but offer 10/3 that he fails to score at all in any of his first five games. ‘Bent’s career scoring record suggests he should not take more than three games to get off the mark’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
HILLS MAKE SUNDERLAND 2/7 TO FINISH ABOVE VILLA, WHO ARE 5/2 TO DO VICE VERSA, THIS SEASON.
HILLS OFFER 5/4 THAT DARREN BENT WILL START A MATCH FOR ENGLAND DURING 2011 – 4/7 THAT HE WON’T.’England aren’t exactly over-blessed with striking talent so Darren has a pretty good chance of getting back into the England starting line-up’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WHEN WILL BENT SCORE HIS FIRST GOAL FOR VILLA?

@ WIGAN…….2/1
@ MAN UTD….9/1

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on how many Premier League goals Darren Bent will score for Villa this season and make 4-6 their 7/4 favourite. ‘Bent is a proven Premier League striker but could take a while to gel with his new team mates, so we are erring on the side of caution with our odds’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
DARREN BENT GOALS FOR VILLA
0 TO 3….5/4…….4 TO 6….7/4…….7 TO 10….5/2……11 PLUS…10/3

Grant Next To Go Following Hughton Departure

Following the departure of Chris Hughton, William Hill have reopened the betting of the next Premier League manager to leave. West Ham manager Avram Grant is the 7/4 favourite ahead of Wolves manager, Mick McCarthy, and Manchester City’s Roberto Mancini both at 5/1. For another manager to go before Christmas is 7/4.

“Chris Hughton’s departure came as quite a shock seeing as he was 16/1 at the start of the weekend. Under-Fire Avram Grant was the favourite to go before we suspended betting and now the market has reopened he is once again walking on a knife edge” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Next Manager To Go Odds:

7/4 Avram Grant; 5/1 Mick McCarthy; 5/1 Roberto Mancini; 6/1 Carlo Ancelotti; 10/1 Roberto Martinez; 11/1 Roy Hodgson; 20/1 Ian Holloway; 20/1 Mark Hughes; 25/1 Next Newcastle Manager; 25/1 Sam Allardyce; 28/1 No Manger To Go; 33/1 Alex McLeish; 33/1 David Moyes; 33/1 Steve Bruce; 40/1 Gerard Houllier; 50/1 Owen Coyle; 50/1 Roberto Di Matteo; 50/1 Arsene Wenger; 66/1 Tony Pulis; 100/1 Sir Alex Ferguson; 100/1 Harry Redknapp
