England 10/1 For Euro 2012
Stan James have pushed England out to 10/1 to win Euro 2012 after Stuart Pearce’s inexperienced team lost 3-2 against the Netherlands.
Stuart Pearce fielded a youthful England side at Wembley as he assessed the potential of several fringe players. He will have been impressed by what he saw – unfortunately for him those players were Dutch.
None of the England players stamped their authority on the game with only Daniel Sturridge increasing his chances of getting on the plane to Poland & Ukraine. The Chelsea forward is 1/6 (Skybet) to go to the Euros having been 1/4.
The bookmakers were also unmoved by Stuart Pearce, William Hill rate him an 8/1 chance to be the next permanent England manager with Harry Redknapp the strong favourite at 2/5 with Betfred.
England were eased in the outright betting for Euro 2012, with Stan James going a best price 10/1 from 9s, the Netherlands remain 15/2 (Bet365). Elsewhere in Europe, France beat a weakened Germany in Breman. Lauren Blanc’s team remain unbeaten in 18 matches and are 14/1 (Boylesports) to win the European Championships.
