    Reckon in a weird way his stock might have gone up after his time with us. The period since he left might suggest he got the best out of what he had.

    I will say I didn’t rate him at the time and didn’t lose any sleep when we sacked him.

    Good luck to him - he’s not a bad bloke or manager. Just needs the right club at the right time, like they all do.

    Not sure I’d be jumping into that job if I was him. It sounds even worse run than our club.

    If he’s willing to wait I bet he’ll get a league one gig at some point next season but I suppose that’s easy for me to say when he’ll want to earn a living.

    Interestingly he was on the EFL podcast on the BBC last week. I thought this will be good I wonder what he’ll say about Barnsley. I obviously didn’t expect him to spill the beans but I thought there might at least an interesting comment or two from him & they never asked him about leaving us. What a waste.

    He might have requested them to not ask to be fair.

    I think you’re right but I thought we might get a bit of something from him.

    3 year deal announced. Hope he does well there, likeable chap and might be more suited to L2.

    Good Luck to him! Couldn’t make a silk purse out of a Sow’s Ear ( so the saying goes).

    Maybe he’ll be on the phone tomorrow asking if he can take some of our players. Not the good ones, obviously

    I can't see him bidding for two dozen of our players.
