Which Of High Profile Bosses Will Go First ?
High profile bosses under threat, but:
WHO’LL GO FIRST – KEANE, BARNES OR McPARLAND?
WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on which of the Football League’s three highest profile managers at the start of the season will be leaving their club first as Roy Keane; John Barnes and Ian McParland all face pressure at Ipswich, Tranmere and Notts County respectively.
Hills make the former England star Barnes Even money favourite to be the first of the three to depart, with McParland 7/4 to be on his way from County first, with Keane 11/4 to be off before the other two.
‘The three are all under severe pressure already, Keane and Barnes because their teams can’t seem to win matches and McParland because many suspect a more glamorous, media-friendly replacement is being lined up’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
HILLS: to See Season Out?
John Barnes – 7/4 YES; 2/5 NO
Ian McParland- 7/4 YES; 2/5 NO
Roy Keane- 6/5 YES; 8/13 NO
**WEST BROM are 9/4 favourites to win the Championship with Hills who make Newcastle 11/4 with Middlesbro 9/2 – these three relegated clubs are 16/1 to be the three who win promotion.
CHELSEA STILL TITLE FAVOURITES
DESPITE losing for the first time, Chelsea are still favourites to win the Premiership title with William Hill who have lengthened them from 11/10 to 7/4 and make Manchester United 15/8 second favourites, also offering 11/2 Liverpool; 7/1 Arsenal; 10/1 Man City; 50 Spurs.
‘Chelsea’s defeat was the best result of the season so far for us – we won back the millions we lost through Michael Owen’s late Man U winner last week’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
