    Just after we went 2-0 up, he was 5-1 with Sky Bet
    That dropped to 4-1 and I threw £10 on
    Then 3-1
    And now 2-1

    There's either a lot of money going on him or they've realized after 2 wins and 2 clean sheets he's a big contender!

    Betting aside, at first I wasn't too fond of the idea as he's half of the Hillcroft team that got us in this mess. I thought he was basically going to be another Keith but he really has shown he has his own way of doing things. The players are motivated by him, we're getting results and there would be no real risk in appointing him until the end of the season. I'm almost starting to see the turn downs by O'Driscoll and Butcher as blessings!

    Now he's 11/10!

    So glad I took 4/1!

    Can't argue with the fact that he has got the players onside after today that was a massive performance IMO
    Its a big gamble for a new manger to come in and hope he clicks with the players.flicker wasn't my choice but if he can get that from the players to end of season I'm all for it .especially as he's stopped the tippy tappy leading to absolutely nothing type of game

    I'll take him too. There is no doubt that the players are 100% behind him.

    Wow, wish I'd have thought sooner and got that! I was over the moon with 4/1 ahah!

    I don't see who else we could get in that could do a better job than him at the minute though, It's not like we have much to lose. Everyone said we played attractive football under Keith but there's no point in that if you're not getting results, I'm 100% behind Flickmellon ahah

    Very nice, I'd be pleased with £50 and him appointed. I'm not sure what I'd do if it came with a healthy sum of £1,054

    Doesn't he have to be named permanent manager for you to be paid out, what if he's named temporary manager?

    If he ends up being in charge for 10 games, or it is announced that he is appointed for more than 10 games (i.e. if they say it's for the season) then they pay out.
