Next Chelsea Manager

1. Subject to paragraph 2, an appointment described by Chelsea FC as ‘interim’, ‘caretaker’, ‘temporary’ (including an appointment described as ‘to the end of the season’) or similar, will not constitute first team manager.

2. Notwithstanding paragraph 1, an individual appointed by Chelsea FC on an ‘interim’, ‘caretaker’, ‘temporary’ (including an appointment described as ‘to the end of the season’) or similar basis who remains manager in that capacity for at least 10 completed consecutive English League games (including over the course of more than a single season), will be considered to have been appointed as the next first team manager for the purpose of this market and Betfair will settle the market accordingly on that person.

He's the winner if he's still in the job until after Wednesday's game.

Free monies then

As long as he avoids the clutches of the mob roaming up and down the Kings Road carrying torches and pitchforks and baying for his blood.

Thanks Hippies...read the rules just wanted a second opinion to be sure.

i fancy there's bee worse 1/20 shots.

shame we didnt lose yesterday...that may have made it interesting

1.04 FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MONEY

THANKS ALL

If they lose to Southampton it will be the shortest ever gap between a Club's manager market closing and re-opening

any news ? benitez now at 1.05 ??

Beware Russian Mafia

You can still lay Guardiola at 55

plus you should get paid in about 8-9 hours time

will the wait time expire tonight? i have a 4 loss in that market want to cancel it

where are the big players there is more than 72000 to back

Backed Loew, Moyes, and 4 others (Cappello etc) for 2 euros, give 2 k in return

the first rule of gambling is that you dont back any odd above 10.

free money taken at 1.03. many thanks for the impatient mugs.

was being backed at 1.11 when hadnt even managed 1 of the 10 2 months ago and now people laying at 1.03 when 8 hours from completion.

not sure would back either but the 1.11 looks far worse

It's not the best 1.03 you could ever back, but it can't be far short. I can't believe there's anyone out there who wants to lay him.

it is amazing what people are doing with their money. i can no longer back as i am 100 percent exposed in this market backing at 1.03.

It is to me. Even Chelsea aren't going to sack him 5 hours before a game.

Illiquid markets, or in some situations slow reactionary markets, can provide better 1.03s. But that's the only exception.

At a push yes, but not a scenario that is a 3% chance.

what percentage chance would you put for benitze losing his job

Before tonight? Zero.

For what it's worth folks this is being discussed on the specials forum - basically, it looks like there's some "mugs" backing Guardiola based on the report this morning about him coming back to UK and so what's happening is they are hitting him down to 30 and then guys like myself are laying Benitez back at 1.02/1.03 and making immediate profit.

is the 2000 at 1.02 yours?

Nope, did my trading this morning.  Got some lovely lays on Guardiola at 16 and followed with Benitez at 1.03

Just to clarify if it wasn't obvious - I meant laying Benitez at 1.03 and simultaneously laying Guardiola < 34.

Still available at 1.01, easy £200 there if anyone has £20000!

Mate, I have confirmation from Betfair that it closes after the game if Benitez is in charge.  Take your nonsense elsewhere
