Eddie Howe becomes bookies second favourite

In the volatile betting market for next West Ham Manager, Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe was made a surprise second favourite by bookmaker SkyBet last night at odds at 5/1. He is the forth second favourite within the last week as the bookies react to every rumour and significant bet placed for the next gaffer. However, not all bookmakers see Howe as a credible replacement for Allardyce and PaddyPower are still offering  odds of 16/1 and list him as seventh favourite.
