Good news for gamblers but not for the investors in William Hill, is the report that Spain winning the Euro 2008 tournament cost the bookies up to £3million.
None the less William Hill still managed to announce profits for the first six month’s trading in 2008 of £145million.
The company say that profits are down by 10% blaming a slump in telephone betting. But internet betting grew by 21% in the same period and now looks set to overtake traditional business within a few years.
