Eriksson’s present assistant Steve McClaren is a firm favourite at 6-4 and there has already been interest in the 4-1 offered about Charlton’s Alan Curbishley. Martin O’Neill who is presently out of management due to his wife’s illness is third best with VC Bet at 5-1 with Bolton’s Sam Allardyce available at 10-1.

Neal Wilkins of VC Bet commented “The pathetic performance in Belfast on the back of a very moderate one against Wales has led the media and supporters both to believe it is time for the cold Swede to go. Many people feel that a new broom is required and if that is the case then Alan Curbishley could prove a worthy successor to Eriksson. He may have gone as far as he can with Charlton and would relish the opportunity to operate on the biggest stage of them all”.
