Williams favourite to replace Cowell on X Factor
Published:Simon Cowell is 3/1 not to return to the X Factor this year, according to Ladbrokes. Rumour is rife that he is set to focus his energy on the US version of the show which could mean he will not have time to do the show in the UK this year.
The departure of the poisoned tongued lothario is sure to be a big headache for ITV, however, Ladbrokes also make Robbie Williams the 3/1 favourite to replace him.
Spokesman David Williams said, “We are used to the X Factor markets being focused on the contestants, however, if Cowell leaves the show we are expecting to see a massive market on his replacement.”
