October 3, 2011 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Arsenal, Bad Luck, Bet, Bets, Boots, Chelsea, Fernando Torres, Greenside, Joe Crilly, London N22, Match, Revival, Robin Van Persie, Spaniard, Spokesman, Swansea, Wednesday Evening, Wenger, William Hill, Williamhill

Fernando Torres scored and then saw red against Swansea on Saturday and William Hill are offering 6/4 that Torres bags a goal against Valencia, while he is 25/1 to get sent off. Should Torres start the match, he is 4/6 to fail to finish and is 11/10 to play all 90 minutes. Robin van Persie found his shooting boots at the weekend, bagging a brace and Hills go 2/1 that he scores more goals than Torres on Wednesday (the Spaniard is 10/3 to outscore van Persie) and they are 4/5 to score the same amount of goals.

Arsenal have finally secured back to back wins this season and will be looking to build on their mini revival by putting in an accomplished performance against Olympiacos, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Arsenal are 1/3 to defeat Olimpiacos and their success in that match is considered enough of a certainty for Hills to offer 4/7 that Wengers men score more than Chelsea on Wednesday evening.

Match Bets:
1/3 Arsenal; 8/1 Olympiacos; 4/1 Draw
2/1 Valencia; 7/5 Chelsea; 11/5 Draw

Torres Red Card: 25/1

If Torres Starts Will He Finish: 11/10 Yes; 4/6 No

Who Will Score More Goals Chelsea Or Arsenal: 4/7 Arsenal; 3/1 Chelsea; 16/5 Draw

Torres vs. RVP (most goals) on Wednesday: 10/3 Torres; 2/1 Robin van Persie; 4/5 Draw

Will Big Sam Be The Big Man For England?

October 3, 2011 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Alan Shearer, Arsene Wenger, Carlo Ancelotti, David Beckham, England Manager, Fabio Capello, Gareth Southgate, Glenn Hoddle, Greenside, Gus Hiddink, Harry Redknapp, Hughes 25, London N22, Mark Hughes, Martin O Neill, Roy Hodgson, Sam Allardyce, Stuart Pearce, William Hill, Williamhill

Sam Allardyce believes that he has what it takes to be the next England manager and claims that his stake would be strengthened should he get West Ham promoted this season. Allardyce is currently a 20/1 shot with William Hill to get the job after Fabio Capello leaves his post. Harry Redknapp is currently the 8/11 favourite with Martin ONeill 8/1 second favourite.

Big Sam has always been around the fringes whenever there has been discourse about the England managers job and he clearly thinks that he could still do the job, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Next England Manager: 8/11 Harry Redknapp; 8/1 Martin ONeill; 11/1 Roy Hodgson; 12/1 Gareth Southgate; 16/1 Stuart Pearce; 16/1 Steve Bruce; 16/1 Joes Mourinho; 20/1 Sam Allardyce; 20/1 Carlo Ancelotti; 20/1 Gus Hiddink; 20/1 Arsene Wenger; 25/1 David Beckham; 25/1 Glenn Hoddle; 25/1 Mark Hughes; 25/1 Alan Shearer; 25/1 Ian Holloway…others on request

STEVEN GERRARD 7/4 TO START FOR ENGLAND

William Hill offer 7/4 that Steven Gerrard will start Englands next Euro qualifier against Montenegro in October and offer 6/5 that if he starts he will finish the game. Gerrard is unlikely to have played a great deal of football before that game, so Capello may decide not to risk starting him said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILL GERARD FINISH THE GAME IF HE STARTS?….6/5 YES; 8/13 NO

When Will Fabs Eye For Goal Run Out Of Gas?

Real Madrid and Barcelona both dropped points on Wednesday night and William Hill are offering 1/3 that the pair both fail to win during the same round of matches again this season. Amidst the misery for both sides, Cesc Fabregas scored the fourth goal in his fourth league match since his move to Barca and Hills are offering 9/2 that his run continues for at least another three games. His run is 8/15, however, to come to an end this weekend. Hills go 7/1 that Fabregas scores over 25 goals this season and 4/1 that he scores between 21 and 25.

Fabregas has settled well at Barcelona and his continued good form could see him extend his current goalscoring record, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Consecutive Fabregas Goals: 8/15 four (current run); 5/2 five games; 11/2 six games; 9/2 seven or more games

WHEN WILL WENGER LEAVE GUNNERS?

William Hill are betting on which year will see Arsene Wenger step down as Arsenal manager, but make him just 15/8 still to be in place on January 1, 2015, although he is 4/1 to leave the job this year, 9/4 next. Even Arsene will have to go eventually, and if results continue to be as poor as the Man U and Blackburn results, it will be sooner rather than later said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Michaels G-owen To Have To Do More To Feature For Fergie As United Set To Top A Ton

September 28, 2011 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Alex Ferguson, Berbatov, Competitions, Elbow, Euro 2012, Fabio Capello, Fergie, Greenside, Joe Crilly, London N22, Man Utd, Manchester United, Michael Owen, Premier League Goals, Red Devils, Sir Alex Ferguson, Wayne Rooney, Welbeck, William Hill, Williamhill

Michael Owen made a goalscoring return to Manchester Uniteds first team, but despite this, William Hill do not think that his performance against Leeds will force him back into Sir Alex Fergusons Premier League reckoning. He is odds on at 10/11 to start between 0 and one game. He is 8/1 to start six or more games. Owen bagged a brace against Leeds and Hills offer 5/6 that he scores more than seven goals for United this season in all competitions. He is 10/1 to make any appearance for England before the end of Euro 2012 and 16/1 to make Fabio Capellos Euro 2012 squad.

Michael Owen will have been delighted to have impressed on his first start for United since January, but the odds suggest that he will need to produce more of the same if he is to elbow his way into Fergies Premier League plans, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

United have been in great goalscoring form this season and Hills go 11/2 about the Red Devils scoring 100 or more goals in the Premier League this season.

Nothing Fishy About Grimsby Punters £100k Win

September 26, 2011 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments 163, Crawley, Football Accumulator, Gillingham, Greenside, Grimsby, Joe Crilly, London N22, Macclesfield, Manchester United, Morecambe, Mystery Man, Punter, Sheffield United, Sheffield Utd, Sheffield Wednesday, Shrewsbury, Tranmere, William Hill, Williamhill

A Grimsby based Manchester United fan was celebrating this weekend and not just because his side managed to maintain their 100% record in the Premier League but because he won over £100,000 from an £8 bet with William Hill. The mystery man, who wishes to remain anonymous, selected 12 sides to win on his football accumulator and all duly obliged. The 37 year old punter who regularly has an accumulator at the weekend, had never hit the jackpot until Saturday and scooped £101,647.97 when Leeds, Crawley, Hearts, Tranmere, Hull, Peterborough, Sheffield Wednesday, Morecambe, Shrewsbury, Macclesfield, Gillingham and Sheffield Utd all won.

It is incredibly difficult to pick even one winner, so to have 12 sides all come in is quite a feat and one that was priced at over 12,700/1, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly. With a haul of over £100,000, he could spend the rest of the season following United home and away.
