Graham Alexander is the 1/2 favourite to be the next Blackpool manager
Betting remains available for who the next Blackpool manager will be and it's Graham Alexander who leads the way in the market with UK Betting Sites to take over the Tangerines next.
Alexander has been without a club since leaving Motherwell back in July of last year and is now 1/2 favourite to take over Blackpool in what could be a controversial appointment for their fans.
The former Preston man made more than 350 career appearances for Blackpool's rivals and the fans will likely be against the move from the off if he was to come in.
Despite this though there's a 66% chance that Alexander takes over at Blackpool next with BetVictor having him as the clear outright favourite in the betting market.
Next Blackpool Manager | Odds | Probability |
---|---|---|
Graham Alexander | 1/2 | 66.7% |
Stephen Dobbie | 2/1 | 33.3% |
Neil Critchley | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Brian Barry-Murphy | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Pete Wild | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Interim coach Stephen Dobbie is 2/1 to get the job permanently
Stephen Dobbie is currently interim boss at Blackpool and has already seen two wins in his first four games in charge of the club as he looks to keep the side up.
Bookies make him the second favourite in the betting market to become the next Blackpool manager permanently with his odds suggesting there's a 33% chance that happens.
Realistically it may take him keeping Blackpool up to become the permanent manager but the players are definitely performing better for him than they were under Mick McCarthy.

Next Blackpool Manager Betting Odds and History
Blackpool are now 1/100 to be relegated from the Championship
Relegation betting is still up for the Championship this season and Blackpool are as short as 1/100 to go down from the division.
Judging by those odds it will take a miracle for the Tangerines to stay up this campaign and with 2 games left and 3 points from safety and tough remaining fixtures it'll be hard for them to stay up.
Wigan are all but relegated and have the slimmest chance of staying up this season with bookies making them 1/250 to go down from the Championship.
Championship Relegation 22/23 | Odds | Probability |
---|---|---|
Wigan | 1/250 | 99.6% |
Blackpool | 1/100 | 99% |
Reading | 1/3 | 75.0% |
Huddersfield | 9/4 | 30.8% |
Rotherham | 18/1 | 5.3% |
