Next Hull Manager Odds: What the betting markets say after Selles sacking

Ruben Selles became the latest casualty at Hull following the end of the season, despite guiding them to safety on the last day of the Championship campaign.
The Tigers were rock bottom of the table when Selles replaced Tim Walter in December and heavy favourites with online betting sites to go down and join Reading in League One, who Selles left to join Hull.
After Liam Rosenior and Walter, Selles is now the third manager to lose his job at Hull in the past 12 months and the current football betting markets have started speculating over his replacement.

Gary O'Neil | 12/1 |

Miron Muslic
It says a lot about the Plymouth manager that they were even in with a mathematical chance of survival on the final day of the Championship, given the stark position they were in under Wayne Rooney.
An FA Cup run was one thing, but under Muslic they picked up 26 points in 21 matches. If he'd been in charge for the full season, that would have been enough for 13th place!
He signed a three-year contract with the Pilgrims, but I don't think their supporters would be surprised if he was lured away by another Championship club and you feel like his profile might appeal to the Hull ownership - even if there are reports that his price is somewhat misplaced at this stage.
Emre
This would be a fun appointment, wouldn't it?
His name appearing this high in the betting markets is not a surprise, and probably just a result of putting two and two together in terms of an ambitious, slightly misguided Turkish owner and a high profile Turkish manager.
There's nothing to suggest the former Turkey international is about to move on from Antalyaspor, where he has been since January, but he does appear to be on the rise as a manager.
The owner, Acun Ilicali, has raised a few eyebrows since taking over and it's unlikely that he'd fall back on an experienced pair of hands, but can he really tempt Emre over to such a tough job?
Tony Mowbray
As previously mentioned, it's hard to see Hull siding with a safe pair of hands for the next appointment and that's exactly what Mowbray would represent.
Yes it didn't go so well for him at West Brom, but he is still a well respected and well liked manager who has a bit more to give at this level.
Given the popularity issues Ilicali is having with the fan base, getting a pretty much universally popular manager in to steer the ship would be a savvy PR move and for Mowbray it would be a convenient move that he shouldn't have to relocate from his north east base for.
It feels a little bit too sensible for the current ownership.
Tom Cleverley
About halfway through the season, Cleverley looked like he had finally broken the trend of Watford managers getting the sack, but a miserable second half of the season put an end to that.
It was Cleverley's first managerial role and it's fair to say he made a good impression, so it will be interesting to see what happens next for the former England midfielder.
Will he want another manager's role, or be happy to move back into a coaching position? If he harbours managerial ambitions, it might be that a club like Hull is the right fit for him and while it doesn't feel like an obvious fit, the more you think about it, the more it could make sense.
But Hull had someone with a similar profile to Cleverley last year in Liam Rosenior, and that didn't last long. So it would be a surprise if he goes back down the more inexperienced route, but it might be a move that goes down a bit better with the fanbase than others.
Gary O'Neil
Whenever a Championship job becomes available this season, O'Neil will find himself linked to it.
He has done good jobs at Wolves and Bournemouth, even if his most recent role at Molineux didn't end as he would have liked, but he has enough credit in the bank.
He could find himself dropping down to the Championship this summer but I would have thought that he would have more ambitious clubs fighting over for him or one of the relegated sides.
Hull are a mile away from that right now, so it would be some coup if they can pull this one off.
