Jol turns down Fulham job

Soccer Betting Lines

07/22/2010 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Fulham will have to look elsewhere for a new manager after Martin Jol turned down the chance to return to the Premier League.

The former Tottenham boss has decided to stay in charge of Ajax after rejecting the opportunity to replace Roy Hodgson in the Craven Cottage hot- seat.

Jol had agreed personal terms with the Cottagers and club chief executive Alistair Mackintosh had traveled to Amsterdam to discuss a compensation package with the Eredivisie club.

However, the 54-year-old Dutch coach will not be heading back to England, where he spent three seasons in charge of Spurs before being sacked in October 2007.

"Ajax let me know they didn't want me to go and I don't think I can leave at this time," Jol told the Ajax's official website.

"I came here last summer to be successful, the build a good team and to have fun and those three things are what I am interested in achieving next season."

Fulham have been without a manager since Hodgson left to take over at Liverpool at the beginning of July.

Former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson was previously linked with the vacancy at Craven Cottage alongside United States coach Bob Bradley and veteran German Ottmar Hitzfeld.

Football Betting: Defensive Rookie of the Year Awards

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.

Bet on NFL Football

Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.

Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.

Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.

Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.

All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.

A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
