Next Celtic Manager Could Be Tony Mowbray Or Owen Coyle As Gordon Strachan Quits
Tuesday 26 May 2009 at 10:42
 The news that Gordon Strachan has quit Celtic shocked many yesterday and speculation has been rife about the Next Celtic Manager.
Tony Mowbray The General Favourite
The bookies make Tony Mowbray their early favourite, the West Brom manager is 2/1 with VC Bet and SkyBet and he is shorter with other bookies. Not many managers get the chance to jump ship from a relegated side to joining the likes of Celtic but in Mowbray's favour he has always insisted on his sides playing football, even at the expense of grinding out results, and he could do a decent job.
Owen Coyle Advertises Himself Well
Owen Coyle, who was yesterday celebrating promotion to the Premiership with Burnley, is a general second favourite with the bookies, he is best priced 7/2 with William Hill but he is as short as 2/1 in places. He knows the Scottish Premier League well and has done an amazing job at Burnley but he might be tempted to see how he gets on in the Premiership next season before moving on.
Bookies Disagree About McGhee
One manager who the bookies can't agree on at all is Mark McGhee, the shortest rice he can be backed at is just 5/2 with Stan James, the best price on Mark McGhee is a whopping 10/1 with Paddy Power! That is some difference! Gordon Strachan has recommended that McGhee be given the job and that is likely to help his chances.
Plenty Of Big Names Being Linked
Other managers linked with the post include Steve Bruce who is 5/1 with SkyBet, Craig Levein who is 8/1 with SkyBet and Alan Curbishley who is 16/1 with SkyBet.
