West Ham 1/66 to be relegated
West Ham are 1/66 to be relegated with ladbrokes after being edged out of a seven goal thriller by Tottenham Hotspur.The unhappy Hammers, who had been 1/25 before the start of play, have now lost five league games on the bounce.Watford remain 1/200 for the dreaded drop with Charlton 1/4 and Sheffield United and Manchester City both 6/1.The Upton Park faithful weren't the only ones who had a bad day after the result cost Britain's bookmakers a small fortune.Ladbrokes spokesman Robin Hutchison: "We saw a huge plunge on Spurs before kick-off and were forced to cut them from odds against to even money."We thought we were on easy street at half-time and were even happier when Berbatov hit the equaliser but it crashed around our ears in the final seconds."The first goalscorer and correct scorer markets were great results but we dropped £250,000 on the match result."LATEST BETTINGPremiership 2006/07RelegationWatford 1/200West Ham 1/66Charlton 1/4Sheffield United 6/1Manchester City 6/1Wigan 8/1
