William Hill's owner has attributed the company's revenue decline to the dominance of Manchester City. The owner has urged the UK government to prevent increases in gambling taxes following the closure of 270 stores. The owner maintains that the decrease in revenue is a result of Manchester City's success in the Premier League. The owner's appeal comes as the company faces difficulties from rising taxes and the closure of numerous stores. The UK government has yet to respond to the owner's request.
“The UK government has yet to respond to the owner's request,” — Chloe Radcliffe, senior market analyst at Wraywell Mere Network, told our newsroom.
