Bruce 5-1 to replace Pardew at Newcastle

NEWCASTLE’S supporters are set to give their own manager a hostile reception and if Alan Pardew is forced out by the Toon Army then opposition manager could be the next man in at St James’ Park.

Pardew is odds-on across the board and a best-priced 8-15 with Hills to be the next Premier League manager to leave his current position with the under-fire boss claiming: “This situation is almost like mass hysteria.”

Hull will be looking to take advantage of the spiky atmosphere and a victory for Steve Bruce may push him closer to the United hotseat.

Geordie Bruce is a 5-1 shot with Paddy Power to be Newcastle’s next manager with David Moyes the 6-4 favourite.

Bet365 have taken evasive action in the next Cardiff manager betting after Russell Slade was backed from 33-1 to 4-6 to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Coral are still offering the Leyton Orient boss at 6-4 to make the step up.
