Lee Johnson and Tony Pulis are both on the bookies shortlist to fill the vacant managerial role at Championship rivals Peterborough.
The club announced the departure of Darren Ferguson on Saturday after the 50-year-old offered his resignation following the 1-0 defeat to fellow relegation candidates Derby.
The loss left them languishing in the bottom three, without a win since December 11 and five points adrift of safety with 15 games left to play.
