West Ham Relegation Woes

With the threat of point deduction hanging over West Ham, bookmakers William Hill now rate them as heavy odds-on favourites to be relegated from the Premiership at odds of 1/33.

However, it may be some comfort to Hammers fans that William Hill are odds-on at 4/6 that they return to the Premiership at the first attempt.

"They say when it rains it pours, in which case West Ham must be under water," said William Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.

William Hill also offer 9/4 that Leeds finish bottom of the Championship and 7/2 that they are relegated and bounce straight back up.
