John Lydon backs Arsenal to win

SEX PISTOLS' star, John 'Johnny Rotten' Lydon is backing red hot Carling Cup favourites Arsenal by staking a £500 bet on them to lift the trophy - with the potential £625 returns to be donated to the Holidays4Heroes charity. 'The Sex Pistols permitted William Hill to use their hit record 'Pretty Vacant' in an ad campaign and the £500 bet was part of the deal' said Hill's spokesman Graham Sharpe.

ARSENAL will cost bookies millions if they win all four trophies they are still contesting, and William Hill have slashed their odds from a pre-season 1000/1 to 100/1 to score an unprecedented Quadruple. 'After a trophy drought for several years Arsenal fans are convinced this is their year and we already face a seven figure payout which could ride to eight if they get trophy number one under their belt. Punters are betting up to £500 a time on them to win all four trophies' said Hill's spokesman Graham Sharpe,
