    That's a better job than i thought he could get. Good luck to him if it comes off.

    Will be interesting to see if the management bug caught him, as he kept saying he was only interested in managing us.

    Best of luck to him, hopefully he can make a fist of management, he had his faults with us but overall led us to a pretty decent finish, hampered by a harsh fixture list in March and a small squad.

    Old ground but I would argue he didnt have a small squad, he just flatly refused to play anyone else than his favoured XI despite several of them crying out for a rest.

    It's info from Burnley, that they're considering talking to him, rather him having had any talks or anything.

    I understand that he had Coco Pops today.

    just seems wrong doesn't it.. hope he does well & we finally beat Burnley after 6 straight recent defeats.. I think it's the sort of club he'd do well at, they like good football there & no big egos..

    Good fit, Burnley seem to have the same amount of ambition we had when AP was here. Perfect for Barmby.

    If they do approach him, I'd expect him to turn it down, he's already had other offers but is taking a bit of time out.

    Yeah, my friend from Uni who is a Burnley fan said that they were targeting a top 6 finish this season. Good luck to Nick if he gets the job (minus the games against us).

    Can't believe Nick would want to trek over to that God for saken place every day - its a nightmare to get to and the locals are a weird bunch.

    Better waiting for Knill to get the sack at sunny Scunny...

    The point is Scuuny is a stones throw away as opposed to being up past Todmorden in the Pennines ffs..

    Is there a Championship team who weren't targeting a top 6 finish?
