West Ham made offer they can't refuse as Newcastle fans go for Gus

Five of the seven leading contenders for the position of next West Ham manager are Italian, say William Hill who have made Roberto Donadoni, former Italy coach, their odds on favourite to succeed Alan Curbihsley as permanent boss.
'For some reason punters seem to be assuming that the next Hammer's boss will be Italian' said Hill's spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills make Donadoni 4/7 favourite and also offer 7/2 Mancini; 9/1 Hoddle; Zola; 12/1 Bilic; Di Canio; 16/1 Cosmi.

GUS POYET is 3/1 favourite to become the next Newcastle manager with William Hill who also offer 4/1 Deschamps; 6/1 Shearer; 8/1 Moyes; Wise; 12 Laudrup; Mancini; Rijkaard; 20/1 Hoddle; Redknapp.

'There has been more interest in the Newcastle managerial market than for any similar market other than the England job - we even had to dissuade one customer from placing a double on Glenn Hoddle getting both jobs!' said Hill's spokesman Graham Sharpe.'In the end he just backed him for the West Ham role'.
