It's Official, Westlife Are Better Than Oasis
William Hill have closed the book on which Album will be number 1 this weekend having been inundated with bets on Westlife.
William Hill have hardly taken a bet on the other big bands. Oasis started as the 1/12 favourites to win and drifted out to 8/1 conversely Westlife starting at 6/1 and finishing at 1/20 on favourites!
"We could not have got this more wrong and have be whopped by Westlife, Oasis is a dirty word in our office," said William Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.
Christmas Number 1 Album: 7/4 Oasis, 3/1 Beatles, 4/1 Westlife, 8/1 U2, 12/1 Scissor Sister, 16/1 Cliff Richard & Friends, 20/1 Il Divo.
Christmas Number 1 Single: 2/7 Winner Of X Factor, 8/1 Cliff Richard & Daniel O' Donnell, 8/1 All Angels, 10/1 Take That, 14/1 Angelis, 16/1 El Chombo, 16/1 Ricky Tomlinson, 16/1 Katie Price & Peter Andre, 20/1 Lazy Town, 20/1 Girls Aloud, 20/1 Cliff Richard & Brian May.
