Mourinho NOT to be Chelsea Manager at End 2007 - 6/1 (Corals)

Mourinho's contract expires this summer. There are a number of reasons for thinking that he will then leave:

- relationship with Abramovich & Kenyon. As a result of the 'Gallas' affair (and over other matters), neither realtionbhsip is strong.
- Mourinho is strong willed and, if things start turning againist him, is unlikely to back down against Abramovich/Kenyon
- Mourinho walked out from his first appointment
- Chelsea are doing well this year at present (by their high standards).

I've had 3pts at 6/1....

had a look for this yesterday morning but i assume they've removed it ? Especially after the Hiddink rumour - nice spot though.

Had a look for this yesterday before the hiddink news - i think you must've been one of the few takers before it got pulled... :(

Yes, the bet seems to have disappeared from the coral.co.uk... maybe it is still availible on the phone? I put my bet on before the rumours came out, so was quite pleased to wake up to the press reports this morning!

The logic is sound.

willhill.co.uk go 9/4 for him to leave at the end of this year...
