Will Bookies Get Collared By Mancini’s Scarf?

William Hill have opened a book on the first game that Roberto Mancini will NOT be wearing a scarf and offer 11/ that it will be versus Scunthorpe in the FA Cup but Hills are offering 1/3 that he wears a scarf at the start of their next nine fixtures.

“We think that the scarf is a fashion accessory rather than because of the weather so would not be surprised if he wears one all season,” said Hill’s spokesman Rupert Adams.

At which match will Roberto Mancini fail to wear his blue and white Man City scarf?: 11/1 Scunthorpe, 12/1 Man Utd, 14/1 Portsmouth, 14/1 Hull, 14/1 Bolton, 16/1 FA Cup (Fifth rd), 16/1 Stoke, 16/1 Liverpool, 16/1 Chelsea, 1/3 Wears Scarf For All These Matches.
