Former Peterborough United boss in the betting for another League One job

Ferguson has been out of work since quitting Posh last February. He was briefly favourite for the manager’s job at MK Dons and was also linked with the same post at Charlton, but both vacancies have now been filled by others.

Leam Richardson, who led Wigan Athletic to the League One title last season, is 2/1 favourite.
