QPR secured a fantastic last minute win against Stoke, which moved them two points clear of Bolton with just one game to go. William Hill make the Rs 9/4 to go down with Bolton now favourites, along with 1/150 Blackburn, at 1/4 to be relegated. Hills are offering 10/1 that any side are relegated on Goal Difference.

Arsenal were let off the hook after drawing with Norwich on Saturday as both Newcastle and Tottenham failed to win and the Gunners are in pole position to finish in the top four at 1/16 with Spurs 1/6, Newcastle 4/1 and Chelsea 7/1.

“Another intriguing day in the Premier League has seen the battles at both ends of the table go down to the wire,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Odds:

Relegation outright: 1/150 Blackburn; 1/4 Bolton; 9/4 QPR; 33/1 Wigan

To stay up: 1/200 Wigan; 1/3 QPR; 11/4 Bolton; 20/1 Blackburn

Top four finish: 1/16 Arsenal; 1/6Tottenham; 4/1 Newcastle; 7/1 Chelsea

Any side to be relegated on goal difference 10/1

2012 Fa Cup Is Over…roll On 2013 – Di Matteo 4/7 To Still Be In Charge Next Season

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

Chelsea won the FA Cup 2012 and William Hill make them 7/1 joint third favourites to win next season’s competition behind the two Manchester sides, with Liverpool 10/1 to do so. Roberto Di Matteo’s interview for the Chelsea job appears to be going swimmingly and William Hill make the Italian 4/7 to be in charge of the club on the first day of next season (5/4 he is not). On the other side of the manager’s technical area, Kenny Dalglish has not had the best of times and he is 5/6 to have left Liverpool by the start of next season (5/6 to still be there).

“Di Matteo has turned the fortunes of Chelsea around and whatever the result in Germany, we think that he will still be manager next season,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Fernando Torres failed to play a single minute of the final and Hills make him 9/4 to have left Chelsea by the start of next season. Andy Carroll started the match on the bench but came on and bossed the forward line for Liverpool and he is 8/15 to still be at Liverpool come the start of next season.

A potentially contentious decision saw Andy Carroll’s header saved by Petr Cech with it unsure as to whether the ball had crossed the line and Hills offer 9/4 that goal-line technology is introduced in England by the first game of next season (1/3 that it is not).

You Bet Cup Final Can Outdo Manc Derby

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

YOU BET CUP FINAL CAN OUTDO MANC DERBY!

WILLIAM HILL are predicting that the FA Cup Final will produce a bigger betting turnover than the crucial Manchester City v Manchester United Premier League title showdown game earlier this week. ‘Some £20m was gambled on the Manchester derby, but with a north versus south clash in the Cup Final and with both managers battling to secure their futures at the clubs we are anticipating a betting bonanza exceeding that total’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Chelsea are favourites to lift the trophy, at 4/6 with William Hill who offer Liverpool at 5/4; while Chelsea are 15/4 to win both the Cup and the Champions League (9/4 to win neither). Defeat at Wembley could spell the end of Kenny Dalglish’s current reign at Liverpool and he is 8/11 with Hills not to be in charge at the start of next season, and Even money still to be in place. ‘Liverpool’s unimpressive League position could well outweigh the achievement of winning the Carling Cup, but Kenny would have a much stronger case to continue in the job if he adds the FA Cup’ said Sharpe.
Roberto Di Matteo has won admirers with the way he has steadied the Chelsea ship since he took over on a temporary basis, and Hills now make him 8/11 still to hold the role at the start of next season, although other contenders include 11/2 joint second favourites Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola, while Fabio Capello has suggested he would like to manage in the Premier League and has been made 9/1 joint fourth favourite for the Chelsea job – and 5/2 to be managing any Prem side by the start of next season.

Crouch Wonder Goal Stands Tall Over Rivals

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

Despite hitting a fantastic goal against Chelsea, Papiss Cisse is not at the top of the betting for this year’s Match of the Day Goal of the Season. Peter Crouch’s effort for Stoke vs Manchester City is 10/11 then followed by Cisse’s second effort at Stamford Bridge at 6/5. Luis Suarez’s effort from the halfway line against Norwich is the 6/1 third favourite followed by any other goal at 16/1.

“It looks like it will be a two horse race for the Goal of the Season honour and we think it could still go either way,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Bent Could Be Straight On The Plane To Poland

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

Darren Bent has provided Roy Hodgson with a boost, with the news that he could be back and playing in time for the European Championships and William Hill have cut the odds of him being called up to the squad from 4/1 to 7/2. He is 1/6 to be left at home.

“Darren Bent’s absence has been obvious as Villa have slumped down the table without his goals,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “England could find themselves in a similar situation without Wayne Rooney and Bent’s quality could be much needed.”

West Ham just missed out on automatic promotion to the Premier League and they are 13/8 favourites to win the Championship playoffs at Hills who go 5/2 Birmingham; 10/3 Blackpool and 10/3 Cardiff. It could be argued that West Ham should have been promoted easily and Hills offer 14/1 that West Ham go up and Sam Allardyce leaves the club before the start of the season.

English Championship Playoffs: 13/8 West Ham; 5/2 Birmingham; 10/3 Blackpool; 10/3 Cardiff

First Leg:

9/5 Cardiff; 17/10 West Ham; 2/1 Draw
6/4 Blackpool; 19/10 Birmingham; 21/10 Draw

BSP Playoffs: 2/1 Wrexham; 2/1 Mansfield; 10/3 Luton; 10/3 York

First Leg:

(tonight) 5/4 York; 11/5 Mansfield; 23/10 Draw
13/10 Luton; 21/10 Wrexham; 23/10 Draw

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

The race for fourth place took another twist as Newcastle won at Chelsea ad Spurs thumped a woeful Bolton Wanderers. Spurs are in to 1/5 to finish the season in the top four, with Arsenal 1/12 and Newcastle 5/2. Chelsea’s best hope of Champions League football next season is to win this year’s competition as they are now 20/1 to bag a top four spot.

“The race for the top four has really warmed up again and this could be yet another battle in the Premier League that could go down to the wire,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Harry Redknapp is 5/1 to be named the next England manager after a disappointing week on that front, while Alan Pardew, who has masterminded a fantastic rise to the top for Newcastle, is 12/1.

At the other end of the table, Bolton are 10/3 with Hills to lose their final two games of the season. Bolton are 5/6 to be relegated with Blackburn 1/66 and QPR 5/6.

Relegation: 1/66 Blackburn; 5/6 QPR; 5/6 Bolton; 20/1 Wigan; 20/1 Aston Villa

Without Manchester: 2/5 Arsenal; 2/1 Tottenham; 8/1 Newcastle; 40/1 Chelsea

Relegation Trebles: 10/11 Wolves/Bolton/Blackburn; 10/11 Wolves/Blackburn/QPR; 20/1 Wolves/QPR/Bolton; 25/1 Wolves/Wigan/Blackburn; 25/1 Wolves/Blackburn/Aston Villa; 33/1 BAR

Top four finish: 1/12 Arsenal; 1/5 Tottenham; 5/2 Newcastle; 20/1 Chelsea

5/1 Harry Redknapp to be NEXT England manager

12/1 Alan Pardew to be NEXT England manager

Everton 1/8 To Finish Above Liverpool…kenny Odds On To Leave Before Next Season

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

Liverpool once again lost at home and Kenny Dalglish is 8/11 with William Hill to have left Liverpool by the start of next season (Evens to still be there). Liverpool are now 9/2 to finish above Everton at the end of the season with the Blues 1/8 to top their rivals for the first time in seven years.

“The wheels have fallen off the Liverpool revolution after a promising end to last season,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “Kenny could pay for it come the summer.”
