Bradford City are looking for their fifth manager in 12 months, after David Hopkins stood down after just half a year in the job at the Sky Bet League One club.
City have endured a torrid time on and off the field this season and currently sit second bottom. They've gone through two managers already this campaign and removed CEO and co-owner Edin Rahic from the club in December.
However, maybe the situation isn't as bad as it first appears, with Bradford just two points from safety and recently went on a run of four straight wins, so there is some light at the end of the tunnel.
Let's take a look at who could be the next manager of the former Premier League club.
Next permanent Bradford manager*
5/2 - Phil Parkinson
4/1 - Gary Bowyer
5/1 - Mark Bower
5/1 - Steve Evans
6/1 - Martin Drury
6/1 - Paul Hurst
12/1 - Michael Flynn

WATCH: Who next for Bradford City?
Phil Parkinson
Parkinson will go down as one of Bradford City's greatest ever managers, guiding them not just out of Sky Bet League Two, but to a shock League Cup final appearance in 2013. That run to Wembley saw the Bantams defeat Premier League Wigan, Arsenal and Aston Villa, before being defeated 5-0 by Swansea in the final.
The former Reading player left City when new owners took over the club in 2016, choosing to move to fellow League One side Bolton, where he immediately won promotion back to the Sky Bet Championship.
Despite Bolton's major financial problems and currently sitting in the relegation zone if seems highly unlikely Parkinson would swap his current difficult position with a similar one in a league lower.
Gary Bowyer
Gary Bowyer could be a real shout here and is a free agent after leaving fellow Sky Bet League One club Blackpool after just one game of the current season.
Bowyer has vast experience, managing across all three EFL divisions. He guided Blackpool to promotion from Sky Bet League Two and stabilised the club's position back in League One the following season.
Bradford's last four managers have had connections with the club, with Stuart McCall, Simon Grayson and David Hopkin all former players, while Michael Collins was an academy coach at Valley Parade. So if the club decide they need to go in a new direction and bring someone in with no Bantams history then Bowyer seems a great choice.
The only issue here could be Bowyer himself. While Bradford are not the mess that Blackpool are, will Bowyer want to go to another club that has question marks over its ownership, financials and future direction.
Mark Bower
A name you might not be familiar with, Bower is the manager of Bradford Park Avenue of National League North.
As well as already living in Bradford, Bower is a former City defender and was a popular figure with fans during his time at the club. He was there when it was owned by Julian Rhodes, who has now returned as interim CEO.
Park Avenue are currently in the division's play-off positions, despite tight budgets, and he formerly guided Guiseley to both promotion to and survival in the National League.
Steve Evans
Available after his departure from Peterborough and it is understood he would be willing to listen to an offer from Bradford.
However, he has history with Bradford with a lot of bad blood held between him and the club's fans. It follows clashes with former boss Phil Parkinson during his days as both Fleetwood and Rotherham boss.
While no doubt a man that can save Bradford from relegation, PR wise it does not seem the not sensible move for the Bantams.
Martin Drury
Bradford City say they will take their time to appoint their next boss, knowing they have to get it right after the last year of mistakes.
So will they trust Drury to take the reins and hope that by already knowing the players well he can get better out of them and drive them up the table. This would then allow City to make a full time appointment in the summer with a clear picture of the league they are in and the direction they are going.
There are 12 games left of the season and anyone that takes charge of 10 games or more is classed by the bookies as the permanent boss.
Michael Flynn
I think this could be a great shout. Flynn is another former Bradford City player, and while a Welsh boy, he spent four years in West Yorkshire with both City and Huddersfield Town, so knows the area already.
Does he feel he has taken Newport as far as he can now? They will not be promoted from Sky Bet League Two this season and another excellent FA Cup run has come to an end.
Bradford are a huge club and would represent the step up Flynn must surely want to make soon, even if the club were relegated.
Robbie Blake
You have to scroll down the betting market to find Robbie Blake's name, at 25/1 at the time of writing.
He is another former City man, part of their legendary Premier League side. He is a big, likeable character that would bring much needed cheer and fun back to the much maligned club.
He is also a winner and demands the best, so could be the perfect candidate for the job. He is keen to become a manager after being assistant at Portsmouth for three years and knows League One well.
However in a relegation dog fight do Bradford need a more experienced, calmer head at the helm?
Odds correct of 13030 on 26/2/19.
