Next Southampton Manager Betting Odds Now Make Nigel Adkins Favourite Ahead Of Gianfranco Zola
Friday 03 September 2010 at 15:09
Nigel Adkins is the new favourite in the Next Southampton Manager Betting Odds, replacing former favourite Eddie Howe. It seems that although Eddie Howe is still one of the favourites in the Next Southampton Manager Betting Odds, there has been a change of heart at St Marys and the current Scunthorpe manager is now expected to replace Alan Pardew.
Nigel Adkins Becomes Favourite For Southampton Job
Scunthorpe manager Nigel Adkins has jumped to the front of the queue in the Next Southampton Manager Betting Odds seemingly out of nowhere and those still wanting to back him to land the Southampton managerial position aren't going to get much of a price with the bookies, SkyBet go just 6/4 now but VC Bet offer a generous looking 3/1 compared to the odds at SkyBet. Paddy Power, the only other bookie offering odds on the Next Southampton Manager, make Adkins a 13/8 shot which again backs up what a generous price the 3/1 with VC Bet is. Eddie Howe was favourite but he has now dropped away to be joint second favourite, VC Bet still think he is the man as they go 2/1 but the best price he can be backed at is 4/1 with Paddy Power.
Zola And Shearer Amongst Big Names Still In The Frame
One name that should appeal to many Southampton fans is Gianfranco Zola. Despite a mediocre managerial career to date, Zola remains a manager who could certainly attract a better level of player to Southampton and he is the other joint second favourite in the Next Southampton Manager Betting Odds, Zola can be backed at 4/1 with Paddy Power and VC Bet. Three other managers have single figure odds proving that many other managers are still in with a shout of the job, perhaps the most interesting of which is Alan Shearer, he played at Southampton in the early days of his career and would probably be interested in going back, he is 9/1 with SkyBet. That price puts him behind Phil Brown who is 7/1 with Paddy Power and Paul Hart who is 8/1 with VC Bet. For more Next Southampton Manager Betting Odds click on any of the orange bookie links above.
