Galtier is the favourite on Betfair now. Into 1/2.

Wilkins put a word in on talksport  Hoddle getting the villa job yesterday.Inside info or jobs for the boys? Either way I have no faith in the current owners. They have not made 1 successful choice of management in 8 fuckin years!!! O'Neill was chosen by Deadly. We are like an Ocean liner being run by chimps.

Garde would be a very logical choice.
Would he? I really hope your right but what are you basing your opinion on?

Very very short odds. However, I think the real indication is the odds you can lay a manager. This would suggest Garde is still favourite.

Continental odds system, how much you multiply you stake by.

Odds of 2.0 is evens.

In this instance you'd have to bet £10 to win 20p.

I have just been away for a few days so am a bit behind on things. Last thing I heard we wanted Garde, he wanted us but Lyon's chairman didn't want Garde's coaches to leave. Is this still the case? What is this about Tuchel, I thought he was doing really well at Dortmund?

The point I am trying to make (badly) is that the odds don't  always mean that much.

It is a bit like me saying I will give you odds of 1.02 on loads of different managers. It is effectively me offering v stingy odds on loads of people, and hence my payout to you is less costly for me.

You have to be very careful how you interpret on line betting odds. The companies, perfectly legally employ "rampers" to place bets to manipulate the market. For example suppose Yorke was a 1,000 - 1 to be the next Villa manager with a small outlay a ramper could make it seem that Yorke was gaining support. Gullible gamblers take the bait and the betting organisation grows an income stream from virtually nothing. The ramper is rewarded with a percentage of business he or she generates

If Garde is indeed the 'choosen one', why are you getting hypothetically angry about Steve Bruce?

Well the fact that a core of our recruitment was stars from the French league, a league which Garde has great knowledge of. He was also used as a liaison between English and French players in the past, which means he might well be able to bring us unity. Also he had an extremely successful spell at Lyon working under similar circumstances to which Villa find themselves in.
