Team GB have confirmed that they will have a team entered in the 2012 Olympic games but who will coach them and will they win the Gold for Great Britain? Rumour is strong that Sir Alex Ferguson will lead the way and be the 2012 Olympic Coach for the GB Football team but would Manchester Utd let him go to take part or would such an offer even be of interest to him?
Paddy Power, one of the leading bookmakers available online have opened a book on just that. If you fancy a gamble and think that Sir Alex will accept the job, Paddy Power will let you back him.
If he does lead the GB Football Team and they win a gold medal then odds are available at 28/1. If you think that Team GB will win the 2012 Olympic Gold without Sir Alex, then odds are available at 8/1.
Unfortuneately, Team GB won't be entering a football team in the upcoming 2008 Olympic Games.
It's a long way off yet to the 2012 Olympics but the Coach and team selection will certainly be interesting to see and you can guarantee that you'll be able to follow the news closer to the time everywhere, such will be the huge interest in a true Great British Football team. |
