BECKS NOW 5/1 TO BEAT SHILTS’ RECORD

AFTER failing to play any part in the game against Ukraine, David Beckham is an odds on shot to play some part in the Belarus match with William Hill – but they have legnthened their odds for him to pass Peter Shilton’s record caps tally of 125 from 7/2 to 5/1.
‘Obviously Becks has a limited number of opportunities to catch and pass the record and each missed game makes it tougher for him to do so as it is almost impossible to envisage him still being involved after the World Cup’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.’However, we think he may have at least a minor role to play at home against Belarus if only to please the Wembley crowd with a late cameo appearance’

WILLIAM HILL:

England 1/8 Draw 5/1 Belarus 14/1

Beckham to break Shilton’s record 5/1

Beckham to make World Cup squad 8/11 yes, Evs no

Beckham to play any part against Belarus 2/5 yes, 7/4 no

Rio Ferdinand to start England’s first game of World Cup finals – 1/6 yes; 7/2 no.

TO START IN GOAL IN 1ST WORLD CUP FINALS GAME: 11/10 Robert Green; 5/4 David James; 5/1 Ben Foster; 8/1 Paul Robinson (others on request)

LATEST WILLIAM HILL WORLD CUP ODDS:
