Do well and his stock will be unbelievably high. Do poorly, and he’ll just be seen as another good manager become Leeds manager & struggle, get sacked, nice pay off, go straight into another mid/lower mid championship team. Not this time I would think. It's a very distasteful way to go and everyone in football can see what his motivation for going to Leeds is - you've just outlined it above, he wants a pay day. No-one can believe they can eventually be the ones to succeed at Leeds so I am not buying any of that. I think chairmen will see him for what he's worth. What's worse, he hasn't actually achieved much in the game to be fair, Barnsley league 1 promotion and JPT from part way through the campaign and maintenance of Championship status is not to be sniffed at, but I don't think it puts him very high on many Championship board lists - Leeds aside obviously. I think this will be one he really regrets. I'd be surprised if his next job is much better than a struggling League One side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The time will come - it always does. I would imagine he would if he was leaving to join another club unless, 1. The other club insisted he worked with who was already there. Not likely but possible. 2. One of the existing coaches was offered the top job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree that it seems unlikely in current circumstances but they have a habit of finding good players so I wouldn't rule them out of having a season like ours when the slate is wiped in August.

Indeed they have but at present they are nowhere near able to compete for that IMO so I’m surprised to hear a Barnsley fan seemingly serious that he thought they’d be in the Prem under ‘Ecky.

Completely agree with you especially as relegation looks far more likely at present. Previous owner Patrick Cryne sold them to a Chinese billionaire when his fight against cancer was seemingly over. Sometimes billionaires like to spend their money (eg Manchester City). Sometimes billionaires like to use the phrase "it takes time" while they fail to build a new stadium, sell the club's best players, spend nothing and look for the exit (eg Bristol Rovers). I've no idea what the Tykes' fans were promised but every club has a few deluded fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted February 6, 2018 Report Share Posted February 6, 2018 Just watch Barnsley win the next two or three now. It`s things like this that get everyone pulling together - siege mentality and all that. If they do that they`ll leave the caretaker guy in charge and reassess in the summer - say what you like they do have a reputation as a good place to be.

Fair points but I don’t think there’s a manager out there who would be a Barnsley manager and reject taking over at Leeds. Much bigger job on every level. Time will tell.

Admin Ian M Posted February 6, 2018 Admin Report Share Posted February 6, 2018 If you're bored you could do worse than go and browse the Barnsley forum. After two years of giving LJ zero credit it was now his team that Hecky took up and LJ who got them to the final. There's even some twat who seems dejected that Hecky doesn't have any sons to give some grief to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted February 6, 2018 Report Share Posted February 6, 2018 Wonder if they’ll try and survive this season, and then go for Mick McCarthy...ex-Barnsley player. He’s out of contract at Ipswich in the summer and made it clear he doesn’t want a new deal. If I were Barnsley I would use Heckingbottom money to get MM now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
