Reacting to yesterday’s results Paddy Power were forced to slash the odds on Manchester United winning the title from 6/1 to 11/8 and pushed Chelsea’s odds from 1/7 to 8/13.

Paddy Power said “I’m guessing it’s far too late to say our early payout on Chelsea was a belated April Fools joke? It looks like the football Gods are conspiring to teach us a very expensive lesson”

Paddy Power has long had a reputation for calling the title first for their punters each season. In the 2005/06 season the bookie correctly crowned Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea the champs as early as September after the London club raced into an unassailable lead. But the bookie hasn’t always got it right.

In 2003 Paddy Power paid out early on Arsenal (with a 12-point lead) as Premiership winners at the start of March. The Gunners surrendered their title with a 3-2 home defeat against Leeds United in the penultimate game of the season effectively handing the title to Manchester United and costing the Bookie a very expensive double payout on the Premiership that season!

LATEST TITLE ODDS

8/13 Chelsea (from 1/7)
11/8 Man Utd (from 6/1)
12/1 Arsenal (from 25/1)

Elen Rivers, a former model, was out of the county when news broke that Lampard was now involved with Bleakley, but Rivers took the time to mention in an interview that she was hoping the rumours would turn out to be false since she is not ‘over him’ yet.

Rivers went on to say that after seven years together and two children who remind her of him, it is impossible to get over him because she is reminded of his impact on her life every day.

Rivers currently lives with her and Lampard’s two daughters aged four and two in a large house overlooking Chelsea Harbour that was purchased for her by Lampard for a reported £2.85m.

She also admitted in the interview that she is struggling as a single mother and that her break up with him was devastating. The couple was engaged just eight months ago when they split and Rivers stated that since then she has been hoping that reconciliation might in their future.

Rivers put a halt on their wedding after Lampard was seen with two other women.

According to Rivers, when she found out about the other women she cried for days heartbroken over the fact and that the thought of beginning another relationship was the farthest thing from her mind.
