AVRAM GRANT is now 1-3 favourite with William Hill to be the next Premier League manager to leave his job after Roy Hodgson parted company with Liverpool yesterday.
I'd tipped up the Anfield boss to win the previous sack race after the midweek defeat at Blackburn and he's been replaced by Kenny Dalglish who is in charge until the end of the season.
A William Hill client from Wales took advice and gambled £2,000 on at 4-7 to win £3140.
Hills are betting on who will succeed Hodgson on a permanent basis and Dalglish the 13-8 favourite ahead of 4-1 Martin O'Neill, 5-1 Frank Rijkaard and Owen Coyle, 6-1 Ralf Rangnick, 8-1 Porto's Andres Villas-Boas, 10-1 Rafa Benitez and 14-1 Guus Hiddink.
Aston Villa's Gerard Houllier is 9-2 second favourite with Hills to win the sack race with Chelsea's Carlo Ancelotti more likely at 6-1 and Wolves' Mick McCarthy out to 10-1.
William Hill go 7-4 no more managers leave their EPL posts this month while one pays 6-4, two is 9-4 and three or more 10-1.
Hodgson is 6-4 to take his next job in English football and he's likely to still be well thought of after the fine job he did at Fulham.
He's 10-1 to go to Spain, 4-1 Italy, 6-1 Germany, 8-1 Norway, 8-1 Sweden and 6-1 to take charge of an international team.
