Next Wigan Manager Betting Odds Point Towards Roberto Martinez As Bruce Talks To Sunderland
Monday 01 June 2009 at 14:43
It looks as though Steve Bruce will be the Next Sunderland Manager as the bookies have stopped taking bets but they have already started betting on the Next Wigan Manager.
Clubs Fighting Over Martinez
Swansea manager, Roberto Martinez, is the early favourite at 5/4 with VC Bet. SkyBet offer a very similar price of 11/10 about Martinez so he does look the most likely appointment but it seems the Spaniard could be on his way to Celtic instead. He is the even money favourite at evens with Ladbrokes and Blue Square in the Next Celtic Manager betting. Wherever he goes it looks as though it is the start of a very promising career.
Fergie Jnr To Step Up To Top Flight?
Peterborough manager Darren Ferguson is the second favourite and he is another young manager who is likely to be destined for big things. Ferguson can be backed at 7/2 with SkyBet and he is likely to be high on Dave Whelan's shortlist.
Paul Jewell Return A Possibility
The only other manager with a single figure price in the Next Wigan Manager Betting Odds is former manager Paul Jewell, who is 11/2 with SkyBet. Paul Jewell left Wigan a hero having kept them in the Premiership in their first top flight season but things haven't worked out for him since so it could be a good appointment for both sides.
Many Top Managers Linked
Other managers who are prominent in the betting include Graeme Souness who is 12/1 with SkyBet, Gordon Strachan who is also 12/1 with SkyBet and Paul Ince who is 14/1 with SkyBet.
