BOOKIES RUNNING SCARED OF BLACKPOOL

BLACKPOOL fans have staked so many bets on their side to WIN the Premier League title this season that William Hill have had to slash their odds by a record EIGHT THOUSAND points in their betting – and now offer them at 2000/1 to win the title, having opened their book at 10,000/1. ‘We now face our biggest ever Premier League loss of OVER £5million if Blackpool somehow manage to win the League after hundreds of fans backed their side -albeit none of them risked more than a tenner’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.’We won’t be losing much sleep over the prospect of that five million loss – at least, not until Blackpool win their first half dozen matches!’
Meanwhile, Hills say that they are in the bizarre position of wanting the reigning champions to do well this season, as they have taken very little cash for Chelsea to win the title again – and they currently represent the BEXT possible outcome for them. ‘We will win a hefty sum if Chelsea retain the title as the betting stands at the moment’ added Sharpe.
The second worst result for Hills would be a title triumph for Aston Villa – ‘most of those bets were struck before O’Neill walked out’- while Manchester United would be the third worst result for them, as they have attracted the largest bets so far – one of £10,000 froma Glasgow-based punter and a £6000 bet from a Norwich client.

16/1 England Starting Line Up Versus Hungary To Turn Out Against Bulgaria

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

16/1 ENGLAND FRIENDLY LINE UP TO START NEXT COMPETITIVE MATCH

DESPITE Capello’s introduction of new blood into the squad for the friendly v Hungary, William Hill offer 16/1 that he will start with the same line up in the next competitive match v Bulgaria, as he opts for against the Hungarians. ‘The squad for this friendly could well prove to be a false dawn for those expecting a mass cull of the established players when Capello decides on his line up for the first Euro qualifier’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘And we certainly do not expect to see the same line up then – our best guess is that seven or eight who start v Hungary will also do so against Bulgaria.’

**England starting Eleven from Hungary game to start v Bulgaria –

WEMBLEY ATTENDANCE SETS PUNTER POSER….

WILLIAM HILL have cut the odds for a Wembley attendance of between 60,000 – 69,999 from 7/2 to 15/8 as forecasts for the crowd at the England – Hungary friendly became a little more optimistic, and Hills also shortened the odds for 50,000 to 59,999 from 9/4 to 15/8 joint favourite.
‘Noone seems sure whether fans will actually boycott the game, or want to take up his apparent invitation to boo the side, or perhaps even relent after Capello brought new blood into the squad and want to show their absolute satisfaction with his handling of the team’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Oh No – O’ Neill Going Again !

OH, NO – YOU BET O’NEILL GOING – AGAIN!

WILLIAM HILL were forced to slash their odds about Martin O’Neill being the first Premier League manager of the season to leave his job from 8/1 to 8/11 after a flurry of bets on the Villa boss.
‘We have taken a string of three figure bets on the Villa boss to be the first Premier League boss to go this season – the majority of them from clients based in the Leicester area- and have now suspended the market pending any possible announcment from the club. However, we did see a very similar gamble on O’Neill to go towards the end of last season – and nothing came of it then’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
