Ladbrokes alongside Germany and Italy to win the
World Cup next year. After beating Argentina, money has come in for England to triumph in Germany and the bookies have dropped the price by a point. England were 8/1 4'th favourites before the Argentina win.
Brazil are still rated as a 3/1 favourite in the betting. Argentina remain steady at odds of 11/2. Holland are at priced up at 8's and France are 11/1, with Spain following in the betting at 12/1 after their 5-1 thrashing of Slovakia. Trinidad and Tobago are the complete outsiders in the betting at the rather tight odds of 2500/1.

England blog comment >> 7/1 joint third favourites in the betting seems like a fair enough price I guess. Patriotic England fans will bet at those odds, I however will not be betting, patriotic as an England fan I am. I already have enough on already, just sitting and watching England perform in the World Cup. 7/1 is only a fair price, I prefer to bet with the odds in my favour.
