ADAM MURRAY DEPARTS FOR THE HAWTHORNS Club News Adam Murray has left his role as Assistant Coach at Oakwell to take a position at West Bromwich Albion. Continue reading on the official site...
That's a lot of of knowledge and experience just walked out of the door. Bad day for Barnsley F C this is.
Head of Sports Science, Jonny Northeast and Analyst, Jack Riley also leave for the Hawthorns. Thanks very much for everything that they all did. I’m looking forward to seeing who replaces them as there is no reason to think that their replacements won’t be just as capable.
There's sumat on the horizon with this exodus of management and backroom staff. Nobody wants to be here. Isn't that just slightly alarming?
Surely we should have some protection from managers taking everyone at the club with them? Feels a bit low for Val to poach so many people.
Nope, just a pay rise and a chance to work at a premier League club next season. I'm sure if we offered all of Fleetwood Town's analysts and coaches a 20% pay rise and a chance to work in the championship they'd take it. Food chain. Way of the world. It's fine.
Not necessarily, they may not be wanted with the new guy so maybe they went somewhere they were definitely wanted and not run risk of being made redundant or not in next few weeks.
with 3 plus years of Championship football and worked with the last 3 gegenpressing coaches? I doubt it
Strangely enough, I'm more upset and disappointed with this news than I am with Big Val leaving. However, it'll give an opportunity to someone else to step up or come in and build on the good progress we've made.
Exactly. Murray sounds like he’s from that way on too. Might well be a move closer to home to top it all off.
From past experience when a few leave they all want out. It won't be long before Woodrow, Styles and Helik are chomping at bit to leave.
