Coughlan & Sheridan after the Southend United manager job

Southend United parted company with Phil Brown over the weekend and are sat in a precarious position, fourth-bottom of the National League.

In the early bookies’ odds after the dismissal, Sheridan is among a host of recognisable names priced at 25/1, with another former Owls figure, Graham Coughlan, priced much shorter at 4/1.

Coughlan, whose daughter represents Sheffield Wednesday Ladies FC, currently works on the coaching staff with Sheffield United’s under-23 side alongside Darren Currie. Currie is currently the bookies’ evens favourite for the job.

Also believed to be in with a shout of the job are former Bromley boss Neil Smith and another former Swindon manager in John McGreal.

why would southend even want to go near sheridan when his track record since leaving us has been eventful to say the least.....

coughlan would be a good shout for them
