There's no market on betfair.

Paddy Power have suspended. Apparently this was on TalkSport but can't see it anywhere else.

Odds slashed also on Brown and Zola.

It looked a long walk for old man Fergie across Turf Moor just now-is that what you meant?

Imagine being forced to see your best player sold to a European rival, getting a cheque for £80M (literally) - and then watching all £80M go on servicing the debt that your owners accrued to buy your club in the first place; most Managers would have walked in those circumstances...........still, I'm sure Michael Owen will score 30 goals this season.

Heard somewhere that they want Shawcross but can't even afford him!

I reckon we might see a flurry of managers go early.

Stuart McCall at Bradford
Sturrock at Plymurk
Brown at Hull
Davey at Barnsley maybe

If they get new oners definitely.

Stuart McCall though,first manager to go i reckon. Barely stayed on last year, and like Reading haven't scored a goal this. Got dumped 0-2 the other day at home by Lincoln, lot of expectation there for them in L2. Couple more and it will be CYA.

No way Fergie would walk from a £?m a year job. Great Scottish SociaLOList.

Brown would never walk from Hull, but Paul Duffen is losing patience

If this rumour is true it can't be Benitez as Liverpool are just about to sign Greece center back Sotiris Kyrgiakos from AEK Athens and are about to bid 10million+ for van der Vaart.

His ego is writing cheques his body can't cash.

I fancy David Moyes. That poor sod has to fight tooth and nail to get any money out of the Everton board each summer.

Reading aren't in the Prem. I thought you, of all people, would have remembered that.

Moyes? Nah, the bloke will stay on. I can't see Moyes leaving Everton unless something really major happens behind the scenes or they are in real danger of going down late on in a season which I also can't see happening.

Alex McLeish.

Came out on the eve of the PL opening day last week saying the club "wasn't ready for Premiership" and needed another 4 signings but funding wasn't as available as he'd like or expect

I also tipped him to be the first PL manager to get the boot 8)

SSN claim it was Rafa, but he's denied he wants to go. He says he is staying because of the fans, the staff and the team.

He's hardly going to say he's staying for the money and because he doesn't have another job to go to is he.
