Todays Mirror." Tykes Want Redfearn" Barnsley are ready to move for old favourite Nneil Redfearn after axing manager Andy Ritchie following a row over his new contract. Chairman Gordon Shepherd wants to bting back former player Redfearn - now player-coach at Bradford. Shepherd had wanted Ritchie to bring in much travelled Redfearn as his No.2 - now he is clear to install him in his own right". Out of the frying pan into the fire if that happens.
Does that read as: A) "I'm bringing in Redders to be number two to whoever we appoint as manager".</p> B) "I'm bringing in Redders as the manager".</p> I'd take A. But if its B, get ready.</p>
RE: Please no. seconded. The bloke's been turned down for jobs in the Conference. Legend here but please not as manager.
Doubt it "familiar with modern day coaching techniques and able to develop talent from within." Kevin Blackwell would be my guess.
RE: i think it will be Blackwell Blackwell with Redders no 2. Kinell I can actually see that happening
Get bent! The guys a joke, relied on money when he managed the scum, hence when 3 or 4 players had to go this season they went into freefall. Can we just give him a knighthood and a villa in barbados?
No I'm with you on that It was "kinell" as in "kinell we're already down" if them two come in.</p> Well, I'd have Redders, but only as number 2.</p>
Blackwell didnt he get sacked for been in the bottom 3? Hows that an improvement? Turnover of over 100 players while at Leeds.
RE: No I'm with you on that Don't think we'll be appointing anyone to be honest, reckon this Davey bloke will be given the job and an experienced head will be brought in upstairs to work on transfers. Who that could be I've no idea, anyone but David Pleat, Graham Taylor, Big Fat Ron, or Howard Wilkinson.
