*****************************TIME TO GO, FERGIE? YOU BET****************************************

WITH MANCHESTER UNITED crashing out of the Champions League and their defeat by Chelsea threatening to deprive them of the title, William Hill have opened a market on when Sir Alex Ferguson will step down as United boss, and make 2011 their 9/4 favourite. ‘We’ll all wake up one morning int the not too distant future to hear the news that Sir Alex has decided to quit – as, of course, we have once before – but this time he’ll almost certainly mean it. However, the tantalising question is whether he’ll decide to go out on a low or high note.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

CHELSEA 6/1 TO WIN REST OF THEIR PREM MATCHES

WILLIAM HILL are offering 6/1 that Chelsea will finish the season with a one hundred per cent flourish, by winning their remaining five matches , guaranteeing themselves the title in the process. ‘Having hit the front again with an against the odds win at Old Trafford, plenty of punters now fancy Chelsea to canter to the title in style’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.Hills also offer 4/6 that Chelsea will LOSE one or more of their remaining matches, 11/10 that they remain unbeaten from now until the end of the campaign.

AFTER their victory over United, Chelsea’s title odds have been cut from 11/8 to 8/13 favourites, with Manchester United out from 10/11 to 9/4, with Arsenal offered at 9/2.’Although Chelsea’s win was by no means a conclusive title winner, it turned the betting on its head’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
**Hills offer 66/1 that there will be a triple points dead heat in the title race and 4/1 that goal difference will be needed to sort out who wins the title.

WILLIAM HILL…TITLE STRAIGHT FORECASTS…13/8 Chelsea- Man U; 9/4 Chelsea- Arsenal; 3/1 Man U- Chelsea; 8/1 Arsenal- Chelsea; 10/1 Arsenal- Man U; 12/1 Man U- Arsenal.

CITY ODDS ON FOR FOURTH…Manchester City are 5/6 favourites to finish 4th with Hills who also offer 5/2 Spurs; 3/1 Liverpool; 9 Villa; 50 Everton.

WEST HAM are now 8/13 to stay up with William Hill who make Burnley 1/33 favourites for the drop and also offer 5/6 Hull; 6/5 West Ham; 5/1 Wigan; 12 Bolton; 14 Wolves.
HILLS HAVE SHORTENED THEIR ODDS FOR ZOLA STILL TO BE WEST HAM BOSS ON THE FIRST DAY OF NEXT SEASON FROM 9/4 TO 2/1, BUT OFFER 4/11 THAT HE WILL NOT BE. ‘That’s a decent start in the survival battle, but the Hammers are still some way from guaranteed safety’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

ZOLA AGAINST THE LAWS!

WILLIAM HILL believe that if another Premier League boss is to lose his job this season it will be Gianfranco Zola or Brian Laws. And Hills now offer 6/5 that Zola will be the next boss out this season, with Laws 11/4 and Avran Grant 3/1. But they also offer 4/6 that no more managers will leave their clubs before the end of this campaign.
Hills make Zola 5/6 to be West Ham manager on the first day of next season, and 5/6 that he will not.
‘For all his popularity as a player and a man, Zola has never looked more vulnerable since becoming West Ham manager than he does following that humiliating home defeat to fellow strugglers Wolves.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
