Odds: 16/1. The Preston North-End boss was a 2/1 second favourite at the tail-end of last week, but he's drifted a might way down over the weekend and into this week. (Photo by Lewis Storey/Getty Images) Photo: Lewis Storey
10. Gary Rowett
Odds: 14/1. The ex-Stoke City boss has been among the top runners and riders with the bookies throughout the summer, but he's now a fair way off the leaders. (Photo by Nathan Stirk/Getty Images) Photo: Nathan Stirk
11. Tony Pulis
Odds: 9/1. It looked like the ex-Potters boss is back in the game, and was rumoured to be a key target of Wednesday owner Dejphon Chansiri. However, his odds have now lengthened again. (Photo by Stu Forster/Getty Images) Photo: Stu Forster
12. Lee Bullen
Odds: 6/1. He's no longer the bookies' favourite, after his side lost three out of their last four Championship matches during his current spell as interim manager. (Photo by George Wood/Getty Images) Photo: George Wood
