These betting odds can’t be trusted. It’s just whoever is putting money on.
Right who's the next manager then? (5 Viewers)

I can foresee the local media giving Carsley too much stick for not singing WLADITT before kick off... so he might avoid it.

That's how betting odds work though, if people have inside info and lump a load of money on the odds come down

Ideally you would have thought that DK would have already had some kind of plan given the international break and it would have given the new manager a couple of weeks to work with the players. Seems to be winging it.

If it’s Lampard why isn’t he in place already to work this lot, I thought when king said it may take until after international break that Carsley is his choice.

Sounds like it to me too. Imagine if he got Carsley as coach and Southgate as Director of Football?

sure is - although the Cov manager betting market will hardly be big, so it wont even take a "load of money" to move the odds.
Their league finishes 1st December, would be mid December before he would even consider coming here

Because he needs a rest to avoid injury?
Is the sarcasm necessary? He won't leave in the middle of a title race, he'd have a break after the season is finished, potentially celebrating a title win. I'll let him know Shmmeee says he can't have a day off and must fly straight here on the final whistle

Work in the betting industry and have priced these type of markets in the past, these markets aren't worth referencing as a source of information because:
Max stake and max win will be capped at tiny amounts so the bookmaker doesn't get caught out out by insider information
Prices will be automatically cut when small amounts are bet as there are at best a handful of books offering the market to reliably compare prices.
Because the turnover is so low, very little time is spent researching the market and that's why you see the same usual names alongside ones mentioned in the press.
Cov fans havce managed to talk RvN into being priced, some have clearly bet on him and now his price has shortened lol.

If so though, could still have him appointed but just confirm that he will take the role once the international break is complete.
Or just we are letting carsley crack on either way and then waiting for him (which if Doug thinks he’s the right choice, good as would rather us wait then rush in).
Does anyone know if he’s even applied?

TBF Dean Smith built the core of the current successful Villa team. Got Villa promoted (having taken over in November with them in 15th place).

Sparks actually gets some good bits sometimes, also trolls occasionally so hard to tell. @Ccfcisparks what you sayin?

I remember a time when Paolo do Canio was available and thinking I’d love to have him as our manager.

I’m not going to lie mate I was gonna put another post saying
“he’s got interest from me”
but I forgot to post it as I heard the microwave ding for my lunch.
I do hope there is interest though. Appeals to me more than most of the names

Carsley i would class as an unknown that could go either way. Dean Smith and i'd probably cry.
Smith got Villa promoted and Carsley won the 21s Euros playing great football.
I'd rather have Dean Gaffney than Dean Smith though.
