With the news that Pope Benedict XVI is to visit Britain in 2010, Ireland’s biggest bookmaker Paddy Power are offering a wide range of betting opportunities to commemorate the planned Papal excursion.
With the Pontiff tipped to celebrate Mass at the new Wembley Stadium, Paddy Power are taking bets on the size of the congregation that attend on the day and make a jam-packed jamboree in excess of 85,000 parishioners their 11/10 favourite.
In seemingly dire news for Gordon Brown, Paddy Power are also taking bets on who will be Prime Minister when the Pope visits the UK next year and make Tory leader, David Cameron, their red-hot 1/10 favourite with Gordon Brown a relative outsider at odds of 5/1.
Paddy Power odds suggest that September 2010 is the most likely time for the Pontiffs visit with a total stay of 5-6 days their 10/11 favourite.
Paddy Power said “Its 27 years since a Pope visited Britain so we expect the Pontiff to get a rock stars welcome and whip the audience into a celestial frenzy when he walks out at Wembley next year”
