After Bolton Wanderers dismissed Gary Megson and began their search for a new manager it’s no surprise U’s boss Aidy Boothroyd has been touted for the position by some fans.
But currently the 38-year-old lies an outsider and is rated 25/1 to take over at the Reebok Stadium and fingers-crossed it stays that way! The departure of Boothroyd does seem unlikely, with the U’s boss recently admitting he is here for the long run.
The current front-runners for the vacant post include Peter Reid and Paul Jewell, along with inexperienced son of Sir Alex Ferguson – Darren – and former Man City chief Mark Hughes.
