The strong candidates to succeed Gary Megson as Bolton Wanderers’ manager are indeed just Ferguson and Hughes. And it is just good to see them both on top of their game.

“What a prospect it would be to see Fergie senior and junior shaping up against each other!”, William Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe said.

But the spokesman added that the job also offers a good chance for Mark Hughes to be back on route fast considering his departure from Manchester City.

Well, there are some other candidates and these include Paul Jewell who is backed at 9/2, both Alan Curbishley and Gary Speed at 7/1 and Steve Coppell at 8/1. Odds of these individuals can still improve but those odds of Ferguson and Hughes might as well. It will be a very exciting battle for all these candidates.

Bolton are in great trouble for being in the relegation zone. They had a 13th place finish season. Thus, it is very important for them to have someone that could really bring them into better zone.

Ferguson’s experience might be a factor to consider. Being a former Peterborough manager, he has already went through a lot of problems, and so he is most likely just right for the Bolton job. But of course, others also have their own strength and this is something to also take a look at.

Meanwhile, bettors might also be interested with another betting market, something that is for the next Premier League manager to leave. It has Phil Brown at 13/8 and Gianfranco Zola at 11/4.
