Next Scotland Manager Betting Odds Make Gordon Strachan Favourite To Take Over National Side
Thursday 10 September 2009 at 13:42
Gordon Strachan is favourite in the Next Scotland Manager Betting Odds with Bet365 with George Burley looking increasingly likely to lose his job as Scotland manager having failed to qualify for next year's World Cup.
Gordon Strachan Could Be Popular Choice
Gordon Strachan, who quit as boss of Celtic at the end of last season, is currently out of work and the favourite to land the Scotland job. Those looking to back him can get odds of 7/4 with Bet365 and he looks the sensible choice. He seemed to get the best out of the Celtic players and is perhaps the sort of character that Scotland need in charge.
Four Other Managers Are Closely Matched
It looks a close run race for second favourite, Jimmy Calderwood is rated a 6/1 chance with Bet365 but there are plenty of other managers close behind. Craig Levein is 8/1 with Bet365 whilst both Jim Jeffries and Walter Smith are rated at 9/1 with Bet365. The best bet of the four is arguably Craig Levein at 8/1 with Bet365, he would be a good choice if Strachan doesn't take the job.
Souness And McCoist Linked With Scotland Job
Graeme Souness has been out of the game for a while but he is rated a 12/1 shot with Bet365. The inexperienced Ally McCoist is quite well fancied at 14/1 with Bet365 whilst Joe Jordan is 20/1 with Bet365.
