BOOKIES: EARLY ODDS

Cardiff City legend Craig Bellamy has been installed as the early bookies' favourite for the Bluebirds job after Russell Slade was moved to a new head of football role.

The club now begin the hunt for a young and ambitious coach to take charge of the first team, with Bellamy being priced at 4/1 in the opening betting.

Scott Young who is part of Slade's coaching set-up is second favourite at 6/1, with former Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson third at 8/1 with BetVictor.

The man who currently holds the title of head coach, Paul Trollope, is 10/1.

Others on the early list, which is not based on any significant patterns of betting, include Neil Lennon (16/1), Tim Sherwood (16/1) and former Newport County boss Justin Edinburgh (16/1).

It is unclear how long it will take Cardiff to appoint a new head coach but we understand the man they want will be young, ambitious and in touch with modern football. They are however keen for the new man to have some experience, which would appear to rule Bellamy out.

Think we go with the Watford approach and hire a foreign manager that's done well in a good league and can work under a head of football.

Not surprised he's favourite, with us keeping Slade, wouldn't be my choice, but it would certainly be an interesting appointment !!!

Bookies making free cash by making Bellamy a favourite early on.

Scott young

Nooooooo

Some bookies have apparently put odds out on Garry Monk

It must not be Scott Young under any circumstances

Scott Young second favourite? someone's having a laugh

Well all I can say is that these particular bookies must be pissed if they think Scott Young would be the next manager here.

Neil Ardley or Justin Edinburgh; the latter being ideal candidate for the role

I can and I don't like what I see.

Young for me

The hearts manager could turn out to be very good?

Bellamy my 1st choice then the hearts manager then appleton.

Would rather stick with Slade than have that f*cking numpty Young in charge

Gus Poyet would be a great appointment.

It must not be Scott Young under any circumstances

You'll prob moan constantly regardless so it shouldn't matter!

Nigel Pearson anyone? Tan might be wanting to emulate Leicester

Nigel Pearson anyone? Tan might be wanting to emulate Leicester

Got to get Ranieri on hold aswell.

Giggs? Young, Welsh, learn from lvg and Alex ferguson,believes in utds way of breeding youngsters and eciting football

Please not Young. Legend when a player but heard he barely made it as a coach for kids never mind Manager material.

Young should be no where near managing a football league team . No room for sentiment.

Giggs? Young, Welsh, learn from lvg and Alex ferguson,believes in utds way of breeding youngsters and eciting football

After what happened with OGS, I very much doubt we'll have a former Man Utd player accept a manager role with us any time soon. Plus, Giggs would command a huge salary that we would simply not even entertain at this point.

Please do not let it be Scott Young. Not even good enough for Port Talbot or Porth F.C.

Bit of an outside suggestion, but would anyone take Mark Sampson, England women's manager?

Dave Jones may be ?

Neil Lennon

Don't think the club could do any better than appointing Nigel Pearson and Neil Lennon.

For some strange reason, Craig Bellamy is now 8/13.

Probably a case of people putting money on it because of the name, as I would be surprised if Bellamy gets it.
