    Swansea Named As Bookmakers' Favourite For Premier League Struggle

    Posted By Grant Nelson | Friday, June 10, 2011 - 14:16


    The newly-promoted teams are likely to be relegated, according to the odds.

    Newly-promoted Swansea have been named by one bookmakers as the favourites to finish bottom of the Premier League next season.

    William Hill rates the Welsh outfit as a 9/4 chance to be bottom of the pile come next May.

    Other contenders for the wooden spoon in England's top flight are Norwich at odds of 11/4, QPR at 5/1 and 11/2 shot Wigan.


    Those looking further for a potential struggler can take odds of 8/1 on Wolves, 11/1 on Blackburn or 16/1 on West Brom to be 20th out of 20.

    Elsewhere in the football world, Wigan boss Roberto Martinez is now the favourite for the Aston Villa job at odds of 4/6, ahead of former Roma and Chelsea chief Claudio Ranieri, who is a new arrival on the market.

    There is a vacancy at Villa Park after Frenchman Gerard Houllier was advised to walk away from the post by medical experts on the back of heart problems.

    And the wumming continues.

    It really is worse up here than the championship, the wumming is of a terrible standard.

    By the way we were favourites last season as well, and that was favourites to go down ;) wonder how that panned out ?

    You guys are the ones to struggle next season, got a board who's wealth is eye watering, but don't spend money on their toy, can see warnock going to villa, what odds for that ?

    Apparently we're too late Phil,
    we were beaten to his signature by a lesser team.
    His loss, I'm sure he'll regret it!

    "Newly-promoted Swansea have been named by one bookmakers as the favourites to finish bottom of the Premier League next season." "William Hill rates the Welsh outfit as a 9/4 chance to be bottom of the pile come next May" what was that you were saying Northholt???
