Mark Bonner is the early bookies favourite to take over at Sutton

Bookmakers are now offering odds on who will be the next Sutton United manager after the sacking of Matt Gray on Tuesday following a poor run of form.

Mark Bonner is the early favourite at 4/1 to take over at Sutton after he was sacked as manager of Cambridge United back in November.

Bonner has been in the betting markets for a number of jobs in the past few weeks and Sutton are the latest with BetVictor suggesting a 20% chance he takes over at Gander Green Lane.

Steve Cotterill is second favourite in the market and is another manager who features regularly in these lower league managerial betting lists.

Sutton sit bottom of League Two and are now without a manager after deciding to sack Matt Gray on Tuesday after 4 years in charge of the club.

Gray has been arguably their best ever manager by taking them to the Football League for the first time in their history back in 2021.

The last two seasons has seen Sutton miss out on the play-offs by just a point before a 14th place last campaign and now are rock bottom of the league.

Sutton's statement from the Board of Directors said, "This season's results have been disappointing and our league position, as we approach the half way mark of the season, led us to decide with great reluctance that a change is necessary".

Sutton are odds-on to be relegated this season

Sutton sit at the top of one table, but it's not the one that they would hope with bookies now putting them favourites to be relegated from League Two.

Their current odds are 4/6 to go down which doesn't make them heavily odds-on but it suggests a 60% chance of them being relegated.

Forest Green and Tranmere are just behind them in the betting odds with bookies unable to give clear favourites in the market so far this season.
