Next Albion manager - tracking the betting market

[fat old seagull]

He quit Chelsea the other day as he wants to be a manager.

I really can't imagine that this time TB will be taking any chances. A guy with his profile must be worrying about how these management problems reflect on his own image.
I'd be gobsmacked if he doesn't choose a tried and tested applicant. For me Tony Pulis, I'd have liked him last time.
That said, I'd have hoped to have kept Sami a little longer, because he is a gent and might have been let down behind the scenes. I imagine he feels that way, which if declared to TB may have led to his decision on David Burke.

Surprised Ole Gunnar Solskar hasn't got a mention.

based on what, how fantastic he did at Cardiff

 

[Mackenzie]

The 6/1 available for Hughton looks tempting at the moment.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Warnock

 

[8ace]

Bits and pieces for Keith Hill

 

[perseus]

No chance. This appointment is likely to be all about EXPERIENCE.

To me ACUMEN is more important. Experience helps with this.

Agreed - value there.

Tony Mowbray at 25s worth a small nibble as am outsider, although 40s was about earlier today.

Surprised Ole Gunnar Solskar hasn't got a mention.

After a managerial sacking, it is rare for a like-for-like replacement to be made which it would be if Solskjaer was under consideration in the sense that both he and Hyypia are recently retired players who have played for a prolonged period for one club in the top flight of English football and who are both managerial novices unproven at this level.

I actually think Solskjaer will bounce back and become a good manager somewhere. I think the Cardiff job was the wrong one for him at the wrong time, working for a lunatic of a chairman and he tried to make too many changes too soon to arrest a slide. I can see his next job being in another European league and if he does well there, he could be in contention for jobs in England in the future, once the memories of his black mark at Cardiff have faded as, apart from anything else, I doubt he will be the last to fall out of the managerial ejector seat while Vincent Tan is in the building.

Hughton hot favourite now, been traded at Evens at Betfair, is Evens on Skybet, 6/4 on Betvic and Corals. Looking at the managerial merry-go-round just starting in the Prem, I can see why he is hot favourite. Not likely to be top on anyones list there, whereas plenty who we'd be interested in will be. Bit meh for me, won't be any fireworks, but maybe we need a safe pair of hands with experience of this division.

SkyBet carpet ON now - looks like its happening.
Take the 6/4 w/ Corals and lay it at 1.6 on Betfair if you like.

Betfair have suspended their book whilst Skybet are now offering 1/3 in from 8/15. However, Corals are still happily offering 6/4 with Betvictor 5/4. Is it the speculative tenners and Hughton's interview that have scared the first two? Which group of two have their fingers more on the pulse? I'm not convinced either way just yet. I may flick a coin or just sit on the fence......

BetVictor bottle ON now

 

[Mackenzie]

It does really look like Hughton. TB's mate has gone 16/1 Pulis.

 

[beardy gull]

I'm sure I recall someone being heavily odds on before Sami got the gig?

Poyet was 1/10 to go to Reading at one stage. I can't remember what happened prior to Hyypia.

 

[Bozza]

BetVictor gone 1/2 Hughton too. I got the last of their 6/4s just now (based on gut instinct, not insider knowledge).

Coral took my money but haven't shortened Hughton yet.

Managed to have a nibble at the 6/4 with Coral. Its still on offer at the moment.

I put £50 on Sherwood when this happened the last time, won't be doing it again
