Blackburn fires Ince

Soccer Betting Lines

12/16/2008 - Blackburn, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Blackburn fired boss Paul Ince on Tuesday and hopes to have a new manager in place by Saturday.

Ince was sacked after just 17 Premier League games and six months in the Ewood Park hot-seat.

Blackburn had slipped into the relegation zone on the back of an 11-game winless league run and chairman John Williams hopes to have Ince's successor in place before Saturday's crunch meeting with Stoke City.

Former Bolton Wanderers and Newcastle United boss Sam Allardyce and ex-West Ham United manager Alan Curbishley are the two early frontrunners for the post.

Graeme Souness has also been linked with a return to the club he managed for four years before leaving to join Newcastle in 2004.

"Appointing a new manager is our total focus," Williams told the club's official website. "We acknowledge that timelines are tight for we are in a very worrying situation concerning our Premier League status.

"We will endeavor to have a new manager in place for Saturday's game with Stoke City at Ewood Park, but there are no guarantees and we must ensure that we get the right man.

"In the meantime, the day-to-day training will be carried out by Archie Knox, Ray Mathias and Karl Robinson. Our coaching staff and all of the players fully understand the importance of this weekend's game.

"Our supporters can rest assured that we will do everything in our power to get the team climbing the Premier League table as soon as possible."

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
