    Begins to look like the shortlist is SOD, Higgy, Rosler.

    Hignett would be a big risk, in my view. This is not the time or place to cut his managerial teeth. May be a good coach, but Boro let him go and Hartlepool didn't take him on for their job. Would be a bit like when we gave Hendrie the manager's job, to my way of thinking.

    Boro let him go after a fall out with Karanka.

    Would be a poor decision IMO, and would make even less sense of sacking Danny

    Didn't know he'd worked with Keith Hill!

    He left Boro mutually. Huge fallout with Aitor. He never wanted the Hartlepool job.

    I love Higgy. Favourite player. Another hero. So, not for me.

    And now Redders is 8/1 and 10/1 with two! Has Cellino fired him?

    Doesn't this just imply it's a really small book; any bet of £100 or more is massively influencing the quoted odds.

    Or summat.

    No. Someone has had a few quid on him.

    I think you're right - he was 20's so it wouldn't take much. I think he 'distanced himself' from it anyway?

    I'd be stunned if he left the club of his dreams when he's started getting them to win again.

    It is. I just had a speculative punt on Davis at 66s. Instantly dropped to 25s.

    Playing Devils Advocate: I'd imagine he'd like to fire him, so if approached he'd probably let Barnsley speak to him in order to save him the uproar.
