    The same thing applies to most managers. Add in we're newly promoted with a previous reputation for sacking managers (no matter how right the reasons were) and you'll get us given short odds on sacking a manager.

    Personally I doubt Amorim is that secure at Man U, or Potter at West Ham, but most managers are only 3 or 4 bad results away from serious pressure these days.

    Sheff Wed have appointed a new German coach and the bookies are already offering the shortest odds on him being sacked ...

    ... according to the media he's called Hugo Fürst , anyone heard of him?

    Were we not 2nd favourites for relegation last season.
    I believe in fairies before bookies.

    Surely, Parker, Andrews, Amorim and Farke would be much more likely than RLB. Personally, no matter what happens, I think we should hang on to him.

    Why would Parker and Farke be more likely? Both done incredible jobs last season. 100 points

    RLB has done well no doubt. The club will do what’s best though, fingers crossed we can get off to a good start

    Le Bris is currently 3rd favourite and definitely would've been number one before the window opened ...

    ... that's a fact, no one expected us to make the signings we have.

    Obviously the three promoted managers will be in the top odds, currently 3 of the top 4 as you'd expect.

    It's no reflection on Le Bris especially as he's new to the PL, whereas Parker and Farke have both been sacked in the PL I believe.

    Since we started signing players things will have changed ...

    ... Xhaka will make a difference as will any further additions.

    Besides, bookies get things wrong although not as wrong as the punters <laugh>

    I don't rate him at all, needs to adapt more to the players he has

    I work with a few rangers fans and they can't stand him

    He seems to have gone for the 'do everything possible to be paid off as quickly as possible' route.

    Totally unsuited for Glasgow whichever way you choose to interpret that.

    He’s always done same.

    Rates himself more than he rates adapting.

    Was a shocking appointment for them.

    Aye i didn't get the fit at all, he's not a winner imo - he cares more about how his teams lopk than the results

    That might be harsh but I just think he cares too much about his style of play than doing what's best to get results

    I've got a feeling there may be the odd boo at halftime in the rangers game
