BYE, BYE BURLEY? BET ON IT
William Hill have opened a book on who will be the next Scotland manager, and make Gordon Strachan 11/10 favourite to succeed the under-pressure George Burley.
SCOTLAND ARE NOW 10/1 TO QUALIFY FOR THE WORLD CUP FINALS WITH Hills, 1/33 NOT TO.
And Hills offer 5/2 that Burley will still be in charge for Scotland’s first qualifier for the 2012 Euro Championships.
‘Burley’s future prospects look pretty bleak now, following the comprehensive drubbing by Norway- defeat against Macedonia could quite possibly mean the end of his reign as Scotland boss’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
