    lennon and carvahal are both 10/1 now, hurst 11/1 and Michael jolley (Grimsby manager) 16/1 think there is a lot of clutching at straws

    The betting markets offer virtually no guidance on managerial appointments. They are more a reflection of who a handful of fans have had a couple of quid on.

    I really hope we don't go near that Jolley.

    Didn't Grimsby only just avoid relegation to the Conference?!

    What were Terry Connor's odds btw?!

    Hmmn, that's a surprise. Maybe they've removed him, seeing as it's a "done deal".....

    That's what I thought but Neil Lennon's an interesting thought.

    I’d like Lennon. Sometimes it’s about the right club at the right time. If he was allowed to do things his way reckon he could be a good fit.

    Edit: just a quick google search. Perhaps not. Poor at Bolton and sounds a nasty piece of work threatening women with knives.

    Of all the prospective managers being quoted by the bookies my preference would be Graham Potter. He was a decent player, has all the coaching badges, is extremely intelligent (could be an English Wenger) and has worked wonders in Sweden for six years. That said I reckon Swansea may get there first with bigger money.

    Now he does look excellent. But imagine he is aiming higher than League 1 if he wants to come to Britain.

    So long as we steer well clear of McCall, Grayson, Jolley and Connor I’ll be happy.

    I'd be more inclined to say we would be a good opportunity for him at a decent level compared to what he's managing at now....

    If a club higher up take a gamble on him good luck but I think he needs to prove he can cut it over here before he gets a bigger job than league 1!
