From Barnsley Star: Mickey Melon has told of his delight after being appointed Barnsley's new Assistant Manager. Melon, 40, said "I am delighted. There were a few sour grapes when I left Fleetwood, but this is a big club, there is no comparison, it's like comparing apples and oranges. We are planning some exciting times here and hope we have the right cocktail for success. Yes, there will be a few banana skins along the way, but we are confident we can beat the drop. There are a few teams in the mixer and we have to find the right blend to get above them. Of course, we are still in the FA Cup and if we can beat Orient or Hull we have every chance of landing a plum tie in the 5th round. i will give everything for this club, I was so excited when Flicker called me on my Blackberry, And offered me the job. Don Rowing also called me to offer his congratulations and told me about the new sponsorship deals planned with Fruit of the Loom, RaspberryPi and the Cranberry pub on Dodeth Rooard."
Next man in will be new coach, former Sunderland midfielder Paul Lemon. Quickly followed by the loan signings of Peter Pear and Gary Grapefruit from Grimsby.
Mellon gutted Chris Wood moved to Foxes before he got a chance to talk the board into bidding for the Kiwi
I got right to the end before I got it. And hear's me lamenting Hemsworth's gullibility. I'm going back to bed.
it wernt until 'dodeth rooerd' that it dawned on me what were going off..................and I thought i'd stopped having the wool pulled over me eyes donkeys years ago:redface:
Quality. I've heard Mellon's a bit of a lady killer on the quiet, bit of a smoothie, so told our lass to stay well clear...
He is some character hope he and Flicker get all the lads joining in. They'll sound like fruit and cocktail nuts. Watch out Big Mick, Ipswich are going to get squashed
