We're midtable, mainstream media and bookies won't look beyond "another solid season for Mark Hughes" If anyone on here thinks popular opinion thinks we should sack him, they're wrong. Only if you support the club can you see the long term problems. |

Got to be worth a couple of quid surely?

Might have a cheeky tenner on that.
Hughes Out!

Are those odds to be sacked this season (ie before the last game) ?
They seem to be offering evens that no manager goes in that time frame, which is fair enough.
If it was just a flutter on the next manager to go, I think Hughes could be a really tasty bet looking at that field.
Suppose Bilic is rightly favourite though.

It says 16/17 so I presume this season only. |

No way he is going anywhere. Normally some press get wind of such stories and too date there have been none. Coates should come out and say Hughes will be in charge next season and then we can all move on.

If we lose every game (which is entirely possible and highly likely) from now until the end of the season...
We'll probably finish as low as 15-16th and i don't see what else Coates can do. Yes we've had 9th for 2 seasons running etc and we've attracted huge talent to our club to try and push on.. but Hughes has failed miserably and reverted to ex Pulis purchases to get him over the line.
If and it's a big if we went for a foreign manager (I'd like Hulls manager here!) I can really see us getting more out of our current squad. It's hard to understand why Hughes has failed so monumentally badly from the outside.
A new manager would surely see the glaringly obvious weaknesses we possess and the urgent need for fresh faces and sales of players Hughes seems tied to.
We cannot stand still in the Premier League and make no mistake about it next season it's going to be even tougher with Newcastle coming up!
1 more thing.. Would you trust Hughes with another 40-50 million to spend after what he's spent so far? Would you fuck.

It's surely Bilic. Hughes might get sacked, but I doubt he'll be the next one.

I think we can assume that these odds reflect the likelihood of being sacked before the season finishes. So if Mark Hughes, or anyone, gets sacked on the Monday morning after the last game, 'No Manager to be sacked' wold be the selection that pays out...which is why it's favourite at EVS. Is any club likely to make a drastic decision with only 4 games to go? Looking at the other names on the list, there's no way Hughes should be as long as 50/1 given the amount of unrest, but I don't think Coates would sack him until the season's over regardless of what happens in the next few games. |

Yeah - there's pretty much no way anyone will get the bullet before 21st May now. But, looking at the list, not sure anyone is particularly more likely to go in the week/fortnight after the last game of the season than Hughes, apart from Bilic, who looks certain to be given the heave-ho. Think Moyes, Clement and Wenger will stay on regardless. Watford are always wild cards though. Bilic 2 Moyes 5/2 Mazzarri 12 Wenger 18 Clement 33 Pulis 40 Puel 50 Hughes 50 Allardyce 50 Dyche 50 |

How can Pulis realistically be shorter odds than Hughes given WBA's position?

and 'No Manager To Leave' is EVS. Surely it must just be in-season? |

Well if that's the case then 'No Manager to Leave' is very poor value at EVS because it means there's a 50% chance that no current manager will ever leave their job between now and the end of time. That's a long time to wait to collect. |

They also have Pulis at 50/1 to be Arsenal's next permanent manager. So, it looks like odds of 50/1 are able to have different values. |

Ok, if the Op was referring to Next manager to leave 16/17 with Skybet then yes I am indeed wrong. There are other markets open that simply refer to just Next premier league manager to leave regardless of when it is. Hope this clears things up for you. |
