11/20/2008 - Portsmouth, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Portsmouth has successfully headed off reported interest from Spurs in David Coles after agreeing a new contract with their goalkeeping coach.
Coles, 44, had been strongly linked with a move to White Hart Lane where he would join up with former Pompey boss Harry Redknapp.
But the former Southampton coach has now put pen to paper on a fresh three-year contract at Fratton Park to remain part of new manager Tony Adams' backroom staff.
Coles is credited with helping Pompey number one David James reclaim his England place under head coach Fabio Capello.
"Everything that was written in the papers about David leaving was completely wrong," executive chairman Peter Storrie told the club's official website.
"He has always been completely happy here and we are delighted to extend his contract.
"He's one of the best goalkeeping coaches in the country, so naturally we wanted to keep him."

The most popular sports to bet on are NFL and college football along with NBA and NCAA basketball. There are multiple betting opportunities within those sports, beginning with the basic wager on a game’s outcome (also called betting the side). College Football Point spreads are used in both football and basketball in an attempt to even the attractiveness of each team in a match-up. ( See our article detailing how and why point spreads are made)
But you could also simply bet on the money line, or straight-up winner of the game. Oddsmakers use the money line so that more money must be risked on the favorite or expected winner and less money on the underdog to balance the action on both sides. While money line gambling is an attractive option for football and basketball bettors who only care about picking a winner, it is the primary option for those bettors who enjoy wagering on MLB baseball and individual sports like boxing, tennis, golf and racing events such as NASCAR. ( More details on playing the Money Line)
Another bet across all major team sports including football, basketball, baseball, and hockey involves wagering on the amount of scoring in a game, called an Over/Under total. For example, the Over/Under total on Super Bowl XXXIX was 48, which means a bettor could wager whether there would be more or less than 48 points scored by both teams combined in the game.
The final score of Super Bowl XXXIX was 24-21; the scoring of both teams added up to 45, which means the game went Under . So Under bettors won, and Over bettors lost.
Sports gambling doesn’t end there. Betting sides and totals are the most common wagers available everywhere, but many sportsbooks also offer future bets on big upcoming events like who will win next year’s Super Bowl and what movie will win Best Picture at the Academy Awards.
The main advantage of futures is that you can get appealing odds by betting far in advance. For example, with NFL futures you often can get much higher odds on a team by betting before the season even starts. A NFL future bet on a team to win the Super Bowl odds might be 20/1 in the preseason; but by midseason, their odds might decrease to 10/1 if they turn out to be legitimate championship contenders.
Involves one individual wager, whether it be on your team to cover the point spread, to win the game straight-up on the money line, or to go over/under the total.
