After Robbie Savage joined Peterborough on October 2, the next Forest Green Rovers manager odds market has been published here at BetVictor.
Savage quit the New Lawn for the League One strugglers which has left the Green Army seeking a suitable replacement for the former Premier League star.
Rovers are currently perched in mid-table in the National League with a number of viable candidates already being touted for the role. With that in mind, BetVictor News takes a closer look at the market frontrunners.
Forest Green Rovers Manager Odds: Stuart Maynard Heads The Betting
With the hot seat at the New Lawn ready to be occupied, our traders have priced Stuart Maynard as the favourite in the next Forest Green manager odds market. Maynard was surprisingly outed from his role at York after he led the Minstermen to an astonishing last-day National League title win ahead of Rochdale on the final day of the 2025-26 season.
The 45-year-old was also named the Manager of the Year but has been without a role since his shock summer exit. With the Green Army aiming to return to the EFL, Maynard would make an excellent addition. He can be backed at 2/1 for the role.
Could Luke Williams Be Named As The New Forest Green Rovers Manager?
Many deem Luke Williams potential appointment as a longshot. Especially as he recently managed in the EFL Championship and League One. However, our traders have priced Williams at 4/1 which indicates he isn’t as unrealistic as some may think.
There’s no denying he would take some persuading. However, Williams was at the Notts County helm when they endured the epic National League title battle with Wrexham in 2023. Despite finishing second to the Welsh side, Williams got County up via the playoffs.
Contenders For The Forest Green Rovers Role
A number of other names are reportedly being considered for the Forest Green Rovers job. Adam Hinshelwood is a 4/1 shot with a cluster of managers all at 8’s. They include Rob Edwards, Darren Ferguson and Michael Duff. The latter was also a contender in the next Bradford manager odds market.
For those seeking a stronger level of value, Darren Moore (14/1) and Lee Allinson (16/1) are available. So to is Ryan Lowe, Chris Coleman and Simon Rusk. The trio are all online at 25/1. However, our traders firmly believe Stuart Maynard is the most likely contender in the Forest Green Rovers manager odds market.
