OddsBoom’s Next Manager section covers the full range of managerial betting markets across English football and beyond. From the Premier League sack race to Championship appointments and international management vacancies, Dave James tracks where the money is moving and what the odds are telling us before decisions are made public. Next manager markets are among the most closely watched in football betting, responding quickly to poor runs of form, dressing room unrest, boardroom briefings and the wider availability of potential replacements. A manager whose odds shorten sharply over 24 to 48 hours is almost always on the way out, regardless of what the club is saying publicly, and OddsBoom has built a track record of reporting those shifts early. The section covers several distinct market types. The next manager to be sacked tracker monitors which Premier League and Championship managers are shortening in the outright dismissal market, updated as speculation builds. Individual club pages cover the full candidate market when a vacancy opens or a departure looks imminent, with analysis of who the bookmakers consider most likely and why. Where appointments have since been confirmed, articles are updated with the outcome and a retrospective look at how the odds played out. Coverage includes all major Premier League clubs, Championship sides and occasional international appointments where significant betting activity warrants analysis. Recent appointments covered include Roberto De Zerbi at Tottenham, Michael Carrick at Manchester United and the Farke survival story at Leeds United. All content in this section is written by Dave James, whose managerial odds analysis has been quoted in national publications including The Sun, the Daily Mirror, the Daily Mail and the Daily Express.
