Former Ross County manager Derek Adams is the bookies' joint favourite for the Aberdeen job just hours after leaving Bradford City.
The 46-year-old lashed out at suggestions he'd be sacked at Valley Parade over the weekend, insisting the Bantams wouldn't find a better manager if he were to leave.
On Tuesday morning his departure was confirmed - however the markets for Stephen Glass' successor at Pittodrie fancy Adams' chances.
Along with St Mirren boss Jim Goodwin he's the 2/1 frontrunner to take over, per BetVictor.
Glass was dismissed on Sunday morning after the Scottish Cup exit at Motherwell proved to be the final straw for chairman Dave Cormack.
Ninth in the league and without even reaching the quarter-final stage in either cup competition his reign has disappointed and an expectant Dons fanbase want an appointment that can lift the malaise.
Jack Ross, currently out of work after being sacked by Hibs, is 3/1.
Caretaker bosses are always given respect and so Barry Robson is next at 5/1. Neil Lennon starts at 12/1 while Gothenburg Great and current Dundee technical director Gordon Strachan is 14/1.
