Next Bristol Rovers manager odds: Former Exeter City and MK Dons boss Paul Tisdale new favourite

A new favourite has emerged atop the betting markets for Bristol Rovers' next manager, with Paul Tisdale rated an odds-on chance by the bookmakers.

The former Exeter City and MK Dons boss was 6/1 on Monday morning, but the markets have shifted and Tisdale is now a 1/5 favourite to get the job.

Previous favourite Tommy Widdrington, Rovers' head of recruitment, is in caretaker charge but has drifted out to 8/1.

Bristol Live understands the club does not plan to consider him a candidate and want him to return to his role when Ben Garner's successor is identified.

Garner was sacked on Saturday following a 4-1 defeat to Fleetwood Town which left Rovers 18th in League One.

Here are the latest odds, according to The Sack Race.

  • Paul Tisdale - 1/5
  • Michael Flynn - 8/1
  • Tommy Widdrington - 8/1
  • Nigel Adkins - 25/1
