WHOLL BE NEXT SPL BOSS TO LEAVE HIS CLUB?
WITH HIBS BOSS Colin Calderwood reportedly set to leave Hibs, William Hill have opened a book on who excluding Calderwood will be the next SPL manager to leave his club and have installed Jim Jefferies of Hearts, St Johnstones highly rated Derek McInnes and Kilmarnocks Kenny Shiels as their 4/1 co-favourites. Kenny has lost some of his best players and replaced them with some as yet unproven new ones, Derek is probably coveted by bigger clubs, while Jim needs results to match the strength of his squad if hes not to come under pressure said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe. However, this looks a very open market.
William Hill: The Odds (Without Colin Calderwood) for next SPL boss out:
4/1. Shiels
4/1. Jefferies
4/1. McInnes
9/2. Butcher
7/1. D. Lennon
10/1. Brown
12/1. McCall
16/1. N. Lennon
16/1. Houston
16/1. McCoist
20/1. McIntyre.

AFTER A hefty gamble encompassing a stream of bets from Ireland to Australia, bookmakers William Hill were relieved as Alan Shearer decided against taking the Cardiff job, having been backed down from 10/1 to 1/8 to be appointed.
‘It appears this was a very well informed gamble – with an ill informed outcome!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. ‘Shearer was backed off the boards as big money came in for him, starting in Cork, moving to south west London and finally becoming international as we saw a four figure Australian gamble – it looked like we’d been set up for a fall, but we are relieved to have dodged the financial bullet’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Shearer is now 10/1 with Hills to get the Birimingham job.
WILLIAM HILL now make Malky Mackay 8/11 favourite to become the next Cardiff manager with Mark Robins 5/1; Chris Hughton 7/1 and Alan Shearer 8/1 -‘a precautionary price should one or other side change its mind!’ – 10/1 Billy Davies; 12/1 Ian Holloway.
HILLS…NEXT VILLA BOSS…1/6 McLeish; 9/2 Hughes; 10/1 Moyes; 20 Coyle; Poyet; Rijkaard.
