If SO'D has turned us down then he clearly does not want to be her and I'm fine with that. BILLY DAVIES.........
Thank the foook we aint got O'Dismal...............we need an impact manager.........on the managers mentioned thats got to be Megson or Blackwell
Sean O'Driscoll statement "I'm very grateful to have had the opportunity to have spoken to Barnsley. In my one meeting with the directors" cont: I was keen to ascertain exactly what the short and long term strategies and ambitions of the club are and how I maybe able to help... cont: the club achieve those. At no point were terms discussed by either party. It's a well-run club whose achievements in successfully maintaining their Championship status for so many seasons should never be... The directors' commitment to and passion for Barnsley FC impressed me. The directors are understandably keen to make a quick appointment.. to continue the work of trying to retain the club's Championship status once again. But at this moment, and given the extremely disappointing and sudden nature of my departure from Nottingham Forest.... I've respectfully declined the opportunity to become Barnsley's next manager. I wish the club, players and supporters all the best for the rest of the season. Sent from my iPhone using Forum Runner
Never thought he would take it. Can't miss what we didn't have. Right, so we're looking at Megson, Redfearn, Flicker...
Disappointed by that I think Dave Flitcroft will now be appointed manager until the end of the season.
Reckons on Wolves board that talks have broken down with Saunders and SOD is on his way to talk to them
Re: Disappointed by that I only hope that the board think very carefully before they finally get their man. I think Megson, Blackwell, Redfearn are definitely No Goes I think it will now be Flicker to end of season and new start in league 1. One thing puzzles me, as to why did SOD come to Oakwell if he wasn't interested. He could have said No on telephone. I bet with remit and Budget he thought I am not shopping in Rochdale or Poundland
