WILLIAM HILL CONCLUSION
Overall the William Hill site is strong. The WHTV function looks good and the site has abandoned the sidebars that other sites use making it stand out more. The inability to locate additional bonuses easily was off-putting but the list of sports, games and in-play betting service help make up for this.
