6/1 Megson To Be Last Prem Boss To Go This Season

6/1 MEGSON TO BE LAST PREM BOSS TO GO THIS SEASON

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on how many more Premier League managers will follow Gary Megson out of their psitions this season – and offer 6/1 that he will be the last to go. ‘With the January transfer window looming up, clubs may consider that there is little point switching managers afterwards, so if we don’t see more departures within the next few weeks that may just be it for the season. However, chairmen are also capable of coming up with different reasons for disposing of out of favour managers, so I suspect we’ll take plenty of money at 20/1 for another four or more to go – particularly as several clubs appear to have severe financial problems.’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

HILLS – HOW MANY MORE PREM BOSSES WILL GO BEFORE END OF CAMPAIGN?
0 6/1
1 11/10
2 7/4
3 7/1
4+ 20/1

WILL PAUL LOVE TO GO A-WANDERING DOWN BOLTON WAY?

Gareth, Gunn And Sven – Will They Stay Or Will They Go ?

WILL WIN, LOSE AND DRAW BOSSES STAY AT CLUBS ALL SEASON ?
THREE HIGH profile bosses had very different starts to the season. Gareth Southgate’s Middlesbro draw with Sheffield United and fans appeared less than impressed; Norwich’s Bryan Gunn oversaw a humiliating 1-7 defeat to local rivals Colchester; while Sven Goran Erikkson saw Notts County start off with a 5-0 drubbing of Bradford.
William Hill now make Southgate 5/6 to survive, 5/6 to leave by last day season; Gunn 4/9 to go, 13/8 to survive; Sven 6/4 to leave, 1/2 to stay.
‘These three managers are all under pressure for very different reasons but their futures are fascinatingly poised. Southgate seems finally to have used up his goodwill with supporters; Norwich’s result will haunt them for decades and heap pressure on one of the most popular figures ever associated with the club while the more successful County are the more likely bigger clubs are to come courting Sven’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

LATEST WILLIAM HILL LEAGUE ONE ODDS….5/2 Leeds; 7/1 Charlton; 8/1 Huddersfield; 10 MK Dons; 12 Norwich; 14 Brighton; Colchester; Millwall; 16 Brentford; 25 Southampton; 33 Gillingham.
