Liverpool Fans Carroll Singing…reds 6/5 To Lift Trophy

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

Andy Carroll scored the winner for Liverpool against Everton in the FA Cup semi final and William Hill make him 8/1 to score the last goal of the match in the final and also offer 12/1 that he is named official Man Of The Match in the final. Liverpool are the 6/5 favourites to win the FA Cup with Spurs 2/1 and Chelsea 9/4.

Luis Suarez was named Man Of The Match and he is 8/1 to receive the award again in the final.

“Andy Carroll was knocking on the door all day and his goal was much deserved,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “His current purple patch may have come too late for an England call up;, but despite this, we think he could have a say in the final.”

Spurs are 4/5 favourites to qualify from tomorrow’s game, while Chelsea are 10/11. After the late drama at Wembley on Saturday, Hills offer 4/1 that Sunday’s winners come from behind to win the match. With the match almost too close to call, Hills go 6/1 about it going to penalties.

Suarez to be named official Man Of Match in final – 8/1

Andy Carroll to be named official Man Of Match in final – 12/1

Caroll in England squad for summer – 3/1 YES 2/9 NO

Winner of tomorrow’s game to come from behind to win in 90 minutes – 4/1

Carroll to score first/last in final – 8/1

FA Cup outright: 6/5 Liverpool; 2/1 Spurs; 9/4 Chelsea

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

Damien Comolli has departed Anfield and William Hill are offering odds on which of ‘his’ signings will have left Anfield. The £35million man, Andy Carroll is 5/4 to no longer be at the club on the first day of next season, while his partner in crime, Luis Suarez, is the same price to no longer be a Liverpool player next season.

Damien Comolli signings:

Will they be at Liverpool next season? (y/n): Carroll (4/7, 2/1); Downing (1/10, 11/2); Henderson (1/10, 11/2); Doni (4/7, 5/4); Bellamy (8/11, Evs); Coates (1/5, 10/3); Enrique (1/12, 6/1); Adam (4/7, 5/4); Suarez (4/7, 5/4)

Who will start in goal for Liverpool in FA Cup semi final?

Any other 9/1

Frank Lampard was one of the players selected to model Chelsea’s new kit, prompting William Hill to cut his odds of being at Chelsea next season from 4/6 to 4/11 (2/1 to have left).

“There were many who said that Frank was off to while away his days with his pal Backs in America, but his recent form coupled with his undoubted desire to remain a Chelsea player has lead us to reassess our opinion,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Carroll, who at one stage looked like he could be on his way out of Liverpool is 4/7 to still be there and is also 9/2 to be in the England squad in the summer. Liverpool are 1/2 to finish above Everton in the Premier League this season, with the Blues 6/4 to do likewise.

“The late Andy Carroll goal has had such an important bearing on Kenny, Carroll and the club as a whole,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill odds:

Kenny Dalglish Liverpool manager 1st day of next premier league season: 5/6 yes 5/6 no

Andy Carroll Liverpool player 1st day of next premier league season: 4/7 Yes 5/4 No
(Loan deals count)

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

After his heroics against Blackburn, William Hill are offering 4/1 that Brad Jones saves a penalty against Everton at any point during the tie. With both games being local derbies, William Hill are expecting a couple of tasty affairs and are offering 4/1 that there are two or more red cards over the two matches (4/9 for none and 10/3 for one).

“Brad Jones will certainly not have expected to be playing on Sunday but now he will be studying tapes of Everton’s penalty takers to make sure he is prepared for any eventualities,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Chelsea have two very important games ahead of them and having rested a few of their big names against Fulham are expected to have the big guns firing against Spurs and Barcelona. Hills are offering 1/5 that John Terry starts both games, 5/6 for Frank Lampard and 1/6 that Ashley Cole does. Chelsea are 11/1 to bear Spurs on Sunday and Barcelona at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday.

William Hill Odds:

Chelsea to beat Spurs and Barcelona: 11/1

Brad Jones to save a penalty at any point (inc. Penalty shootout): 4/1

How many red cards over the two games: 4/9 none; 10/3 one; 4/1 two or more

Chelsea players to start matches against Spurs and Barcelona:

1/5 Terry
5/6 Lampard
6/5 Torres
7/4 Drogba
3/1 Sturridge
1/6 A. Cole

FA Cup winner: 9/4 Chelsea; 9/4 Tottenham; 5/2 Liverpool; 7/2 Everton

Everton Odds On To Finish Above Liverpool For First Time This Season…you Bet Kenny Is Off In The Summer

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

Everton thumped Sunderland to move four points ahead of Liverpool and for the first time this season, William Hill make the Blues odds on, at 8/15 to finish above Kenny Dalglish’s men (Liverpool are 11/8 to finish above Everton). Kenny Dalglish is odds on at 8/11 to have bowed out of Anfield by the time that next season kicks off (Evens to still be there).

“Not since the mid 2000s have Everton finished above Liverpool and now, for the first time since then we have made Everton odds on to finish above their red rivals,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “That does not make for good reading for Dalglish though.”

Since Fabio Capello resigned as England boss and Harry Redknapp was mooted as his replacement, Spurs have only won once. Despite this, Hills make Redknapp the 1/4 favourite to become the next permanent England boss. Hills offer 12/1 that Spurs fail to win any of their next four games although make them 6/4 to win their next match against Chelsea in the FA Cup semi final.

When will Spurs next win:
Chelsea (N) (FAC) (90mins) 6/4
QPR (A) (PL) 2/1
Blackburn (H) (PL) 13/5
Bolton (A) (PL) 16/1
Win none of these 12/1

Who will finish higher in the league:
Liverpool – 11/8
Everton – 8/15

Dalglish still at Liverpool at the start of next season
Yes – 8/11
No – EVS

Moyes still at Everton at the start of next season:
Yes – 1/3
No – 9/4

Next England boss Redknapp -1/4

Relegation Outright: 1/100 Wolves; 4/9 Wigan; 8/11 QPR; 11/10 Blackburn; 13/8 Bolton; 14/1 Aston Villa

Hatem Has Arfa Chance Of Getting Goal Of The Season…is Motd’s Dream Team On The Way Out?

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

Hatem Ben Arfa scored one of the goals of the season for Newcastle against Bolton on Monday although William Hill think that his effort still falls some way behind Peter Crouch’s effort vs Manchester City. Crouch is 4/7 to win Match of the Day’s annual Goal of the season competition, with Ben Arfa 6/1. Hills also offer 15/8 about any other goal winning the accolade.

“With Ben Arfa and a couple of screamers from Robin van Persie this season, there is nothing to say it is a Crouchy certainty, but he has set quite the benchmark,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

With rumours suggesting that the current Match of the Day ‘dream team’ of Lineker, Lawrenson and Hansen may be squeezed out to make way for younger blood, Hills are offering 7/1 that none of them return to the studio next season, it is however, 4/9 that they all return.

2/1 For Balotelli AND Mancini To Have Left By Next Season

Hills are offering 2/1 that both Mancini and Balotelli will have left Manchester City by the start of next season, 1/1 that just one of them will still be there and 9/4 that they are both still there.

They also offer 4/7 that Mancini will still be there (5/4 he has gone) and 8/13 that Balotelli has gone (6/5 he is still there).

“Mancini has shown his forgiving side in dealing with Carlos Tevez, but Balotelli may well have pushed his manager over the edge,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Match of the Day Goal of the Season: 4/7 Peter Crouch; 6/1 Hatem Ben Arfa; 15/8 Any other player

How many of Lineker, Hansen and Lawrenson will be on MOTD next season: 7/1 none; 2/1 one or two; 4/9 three

Top goalscorer: 1/7 Robin van Persie; 4/1 Wayne Rooney

Top four finish: 1/14 Arsenal; 8/15 Tottenham; 7/4 Chelsea; 10/3 Newcastle

Winner without Manchester United and Manchester City: 1/6 Arsenal; 4/1 Tottenham; 10/1 Chelsea; 20/1 Newcastle

Will Mancini and Balotelli still be at Manchester City next season: 2/1 both gone; 9/4 both still there; 1/1 One gone

Balotelli still at Manchester City at the start of next season: 8/13 yes; 6/5 no

Mancini still at Manchester City at the start of next season: 4/7 yes; 5/4 no

LMA Manager of the Year: 6/4 Alan Pardew; 13/8 Brendan Rodgers; 7/2 Paul Lambert; 11/1 David Moyes; 12/1 Sir Alex Ferguson; 33/1 Harry Redknapp; 33/1 Roy Hodgson; 33/1 Steve Kean; 40/1 BAR

Chester Train Shop Punter Choo Choo Chooses 15 Winners And Bags Over £20k

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

A man in his mid forties has scooped a massive payout after he breezed into the William Hill shop at Chester train station and placed a £3, 15 team football accumulator. The man, who spoke with a Southern accent, told the girl working behind the counter that he was off on holiday on Easter Sunday with some of his winnings leaving it unknown as to whether he lived in Chester or just visiting the city for the day.

From his £3 stake, the lucky punter bagged himself £20,343.96, beating odds of over 6780/1 to land his massive payout.

“It is hard enough to pick one winner so for him to get 15 is absolutely incredible,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “When he collected his winnings on Saturday evening, he told the assistant that he had decided that he was going to go on holiday for a week and mull over what else he was going to spend his winnings on.”

The games that were played over Good Friday and the following Saturday included Celtic who won the SPL title by defeating Kilmarnock 6-0, Chelsea who defeated Wigan with two contentious goals and virtually the last kick of the game and Reading, who moved top of the Championship by beating 10 man Leeds with two goals in the last six minutes of the match.

The shop in the train station has been open for two years and is the first betting shop in Chester that punters get to when they arrive for the yearly race meetings that start in May.

Punter’s winning selections (winners in bold): £20,343.96 winnings from £3

9/5 Huddersfield vs Sheffield Wednesday
1/1 Oldham vs Charlton
4/7 Torquay vs Accrington
5/6 Morecambe vs Swindon
8/15 Sheffield United vs Bournemouth
10/11 Walsall vs Chesterfield
4/11 Rangers vs St Mirren
4/6 Alloa vs Elgin
2/7 Chelsea vs Wigan
7/5 Leyton Orient vs Notts County
4/9 Kilmarnock vs Celtic
4/5 Barnsley vs West Ham
10/11 Macclesfield vs Shrewsbury
