Next Birmingham Manager Odds Suggest Billy Davies Lined Up To Replace Alex McLeish
Monday 13 June 2011 at 09:56
 Alex McLeish quit as Birmingham manager on Sunday and immediately became favourite in the Next Aston Villa Manager Odds which won’t make him popular with Blues fans, the man who looks set to replace Alex McLeish at this early stage is Billy Davies, who is another manager to have left his job on Sunday.
Billy Davies Could Be In For Quick Return To Management
Nottingham Forest sacked Billy Davies on Sunday and he was immediately replaced by Steve McClaren, Davies could also be set for a quick appointment as he has become a warm favourite in the Next Birmingham Manager Odds, he is as short as 11/8 with William Hill currently but you can still get 5/2 with Paddy Power and that could still turn out to be good value. There is also a bit of disagreement amongst the bookies about another manager who was recently sacked from a Championship club for failing to gain promotion, Dave Jones is available at 12/1 with SkyBet currently for the Birmingham job whilst Bet365 go just 13/2 on the former Cardiff manager returning to work quickly.
Hughton And Curbishley Closely Matched Say Bookies
There are currently joint second favourites in the Next Birmingham Manager Odds, the managers being closely linked with the job at St Andrews are Alan Curbishley and Chris Hughton who are both 5/1 with Paddy Power currently. Curbishley would surely be a good appointment but he hasn’t worked since leaving West Ham and it may be that he isn’t that interested anymore whilst Chris Hughton certainly fits the bill, he got Newcastle back up to the Premiership at the first time of asking and will surely get a decent job soon.
