Bookmakers are reporting 'serious cash' for James Horan to take over from Jim McGuinness in the Donegal senior football hot -seat.

Horan recently stepped down as manager of his native county after four years and the odds on him switching his county allegiance have been slashed from 20/1 to 4/1 by Paddy Power.

Former assistant manager Rory Gallagher remains the bookies favourite at 10/3 but Maxi Curran, Declan Bonner, Damien Diver and Horan are all hot on his heels.

Boylesports have also slashed the odds on former Mayo manager, James Horan, into 11/4 favourite from 33/1 to be the next Donegal GAA manager after a flurry of bets have been placed on him on Monday morning in their Northern bordering shops.  

"We laid numerous bets at 33/1 on James Horan and then laid him at 10/1 and 5/1 and as the demand continued we had to cut him into the 11/4 favourite.,  said Liam Glynn from Boylesports. "The bets were all placed in our border county shops."
