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

Ally McCoist was hamstrung in his attempts to sign a striker to replace the departed Nikica Jelavic and William Hill make the Rangers boss 7/2 favourite to be the fourth SPL boss to leave his job. Paulo Sergio is 5/1 with Jim McIntyre the 7/1 third favourite.

“If Rangers lose any more ground at the top of the SPL, Ally could be given the boot, but with his hands having been tied by the restrictions he is working under, he could decide to walk away of his own volition,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Fourth SPL Manager to leave: 7/2 Ally McCoist; 5/1 Paulo Sergio; 7/1 Jim McIntyre; 10/1 Peter Houston; 12/1 Pat Fenlon; 16/1 Craig Brown; 20/1 Terry Butcher; 25/1 Danny Lennon; 33/1 Kenny Shiels; 40/1 Neil Lennon; 40/1 Stuart McCall; 50/1 Steve Lomas; 13/8 No manager to leave

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

Capello 8/1 to quit:
GERRARD FAVOURITE TO BE ENGLAND EURO SKIPPER BUT TERRY ODDS-ON TO PLAY

WILLIAM HILL make Steven Gerrard 8/13 favourite to skipper England in their opening Euro ’12 finals match – and they offer 1/ 2 that John Terry will start that game, 6/4 that he will not. Hills are also offering 8/1 that Fabio Capello will stand down as England manager before the Euro finals begin, 1/20 that he does not.
‘The decision to strip Terry of the captaincy potentially raises a number of issues, including the questions of whether Terry will still be selected to play and whether Capello is happy with the decision, possibly taken regardless of his opinion’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM HILL – TO START FIRST EURO ’12 MATCH AS ENGLAND SKIPPER:

Steven Gerrard 8/13
Frank Lampard 5/1
Rio Ferdinand 7/1
Scott Parker 8/1
Gareth Barry 9/1
Joe Hart 16/1
Ashley Cole 16/1
Others on request.

Wednesday Specials…relegation Battle, Wenger And Senegalese Hotshots

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

Three of the sides involved in the Premier League relegation battle are involved on Wednesday’s Premier League fixtures and William Hill are betting on how many points Bolton, Blackburn and QPR get between them. Hills offer 66/1 that all three sides win and 7/1 that all three lose. Hills also offer 2/7 that QPR are the highest placed out of the three Premier League teams following Wednesday’s fixtures.

Arsenal take on Bolton followed swiftly by a match against fellow strugglers Blackburn, who beat them earlier in the campaign, and two victories could see them back in the race for a top four place, Blackburn and William Hill offer 11/10 that they take maximum points from the two games. Two defeats, however and Arsene Wenger could be under intense pressure. Hills go 33/1 that they are beaten twice. Arsene Wenger is 11/10 to have left Arsenal by the first game of next season and 11/4 to be the boss of Real Madrid come the first game of next season.

“These two Arsenal matches could defining in more ways than one and two victories for the Gunners could have a massive impact at both ends of the table,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Hills make Robin van Persie 5/4 to outscore the rest of the Arsenal team against Bolton.

Newcastle’s two Senegalese strikers could be back from International duty to play against Blackburn and William Hill go 11/4 that Demba Ba scores more than new boy, Papiss Cisse in the match (10/3 vice versa and 4/7 for the tie).

Fa Cup Latest From Official Betting Partner Of The Cup

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

William Hill, the official betting partner and an official supporter if the FA Cup, have priced up some of the match ups and unsurprisingly make both Liverpool and Chelsea 1/16 shots to qualify from their ties. Hills offer 1/8 that the final is contested between two Premier League sides, 100/1 that no Premier League sides make it and 9/2 that one does.

With Stevenage and Crawley both making it into the draw for the fifth round, Hills are offering 5/6 that Stevenage concede more goals in their match against Tottenham than Crawley do in their match against Stoke.

“Crawley and Stevenage are going to be up against it, but the only thing predictable about the outcome of the FA Cup is that it is so unpredictable and we could see a couple of the proverbial banana skins,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

“I am really looking forward to the Liverpool/Brighton match as both sides play a similar brand of football and after the way that Brighton played against Newcastle, Liverpool could be in for a tricky tie,” said Gaizka Mendieta, speaking exclusively to William Hill.

Mendieta also selected a treble for William Hill picking Liverpool, Chelsea and Crawley Town all to qualify and Hills offer 17/10 that his predictions come true.

Note to editors: Hills are also providing a copy of ball number nine (Stevenage) being drawn by Gaizka Mendieta

Match Odds:
1/5 Liverpool; 8/1 Brighton; 9/2 Draw
1/5 Chelsea; 8/1 Birmingham; 9/2 draw
4/1Crawley; 4/7 Stoke; 5/2 draw
7/1 Stevenage; 1/4 Tottenham; 4/1 Draw
4/5 Norwich; 11/4 Leicester; 23/10 draw

To Qualify:
1/16 Liverpool; 7/1 Brighton
1/16 Chelsea; 7/1 Birmingham
9/4 Crawley; 1/3 Stoke
13/2 Stevenage; 1/14 Tottenham
1/2 Norwich; 6/4 Leicester

How many Premier League teams will make the final: 1/8 two; 9/2 one; 100/1 none

Who will concede more in FA Cup fifth round: 5/6 Stevenage; 2/1 Crawley; 3/1 Tie

All Merseyside Final: 20/1

Arsenal 11/2 To Win Cup As Wenger 11/10 To Go Before Next Season

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

9/2 all London Cup Final:
WENGER 11/2 TO WIN FA CUP – 11/10 TO JUMP SHIP BEFORE NEXT SEASON

FOLLOWING THEIR comeback against Villa, Arsenal are now 11/2 fourth favourites for the FA Cup with William Hill who make Spurs and Chelsea 10/3 jt favourites.’Maybe the Arsenal fightback will restore the Arsenal faithful’s trust after a somewhat tetchy period between them’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. But Hills are still doubtful that Wenger will still be Arsenal boss on the first day of next season, quoting 4/6 that he will, 11/10 that he will not. ‘It would be no great surprise if Arsene Wenger decided to move on to a new challenge next season.’
But beaten Villa’s boss Alex McLeish has been cut from 11/8 to 8/1 to be the next Prem boss to leave his club and is now 7/2 NOT to be Villa manager on the first day of next season – 1/6 still to be there.
Hills offer 9/2 an all London FA Cup Final and 20/1 that it will be between Liverpool and Everton.

WILLIAM HILL – FA CUP ODDS- 10/3 Chelsea; Spurs; 7/2 Liverpool; 11/2 Arsenal; 12/1 Everton/Stoke; 20/1 Sunderland; 25/1 Norwich; 33/1 Bolton; 66/1 Leicester; 80/1 Southampton; 100/1 Birmingham; 125/1 Brighton; 150/1 Blackpool; Middlesbro; 250/1 Millwall; Crawley; Sheff W; 500 Stevenage.

WILLIAM HILL – NEXT PREM BOSS TO GO- 8/13 McCarthy; 9/2 Kean; 8/1 McLeish; 9/1 Coyle; AVB; 10/1 Martinez; Redknapp. 8/1no more managers to leave this season. Others on request.

Hills- McLeish still at Villa 1st day of next season: 1/6 Yes 7/2 No

Wenger 1st day next season: 4/6 Yes 11/10

5/1 All Prem Fa Cup Quarters…midweek Prem Specials

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

With a maximum of eight Premier League sides able to make it through to the FA Cup quarter finals, William Hill are offering 5/1 that the final eight sides are all from the Premier League.

“The draw has happened in such a way that the maximum number possible of Premier League sides can make it through to the quarters and at 5/1 it could well be possible,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Manchester City head to Everton hoping to maintain their challenge for a maiden Premier League title and Hills make the Blues 2/5 to lift the trophy at the end of the season. Hills are also offering 4/7 that City boss, Mancini, leaves his position before David Moyes does (5/4 to do vice versa).

“Should Manchester City throw away their dominant position at the head of the Premier League Mancini may well vacate his position, while David Moyes enjoys God-like status on the blue half of Merseyside and would surely only leave of his own volition,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Highest Scoring Match:
4/1 Tottenham/Wigan
9/2 Manchester United Stoke
5/1 Bolton/Arsenal
