Someone has had a few pennies on David Jones tonight. In from 40/1 to 28's with SkyBet. Unless of course, they got in a pickle and meant to click on Nathan Jones? ???
The Jones boys as Manager and assistant? :eek:
Clarke now 17/10 in from 3/1 with Paddy Power within the last hour. Best priced 3/1 with Corals. Are people simply following the money or are there 'legs' in the bets being laid? I took a nibble with Chandlers yesterday when he was still 8/1.
All the Americans to play for The Albion have been keepers as far as I remember? Meola and Yelldell. Freidel could make three? However the stumbling block would of course be ££££££££££££££.......
Meola was a good keeper, but sadly he had an inflated ego and an inflated estimation of what he was...
Just taken a looksy at the latest 'movers' this evening in the race for the Amex:
It would appear many of our favourite chum(p)s prices have taken a walk. The market seems to think the likes of Billy Davies, Sam Allardyce, Owen Coyle & Karl Robinson are unlikely to become the new manager...
The Bookies don't give a hoot about logical choices if they think they will make easy money. Nobody of sound mind seriously believes Gus will be our next manager, but if people want to have a bet on him, who are the bookies to refuse their money?
33/1? They could tell me to name my own price...
How generous of them. Not forgetting you can have Howard Webb, Paulo Di Canio and Kevin Keegan @ 500/1 if you think they will be the next gaffer at Old Trafford.
At that price and with the book no doubt balanced with money for all the other so called front runners (Ferguson and co), they wouldn't have worried too much. Chances are, the shop manager would still have had to get the "okay" from his control centre though.
Any manager who took £300 at a...
No bookie would take it on a next manager market. Red flags would be popping up everywhere & about a millisecond second later, the book would be suspended or closed altogether. Although all the bookmakers are in competition for the punters business, they all 'compare notes' if they suspect...
For those who fancy a bet on the next manager of Barcelona, our recently departed head honcho is being laid at 33/1 with Victor Chandler.
Maybe next time..........
