BS15_RED Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 Would very much doubt that he did as he didn't leave Forest until Boxing Day and Ward was appointed before then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZoneJim Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 They were after him when Buckle left weren't they but he didn't want to go if I remember rightly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearded_red Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 There were rumours that he applied for the job when they appointed McGhee (although I find it unlikely), but as he was at Forest when Ward replaced McGhee even rumours he wanted it then would be have to be considered nonsense.

Gazinpeace Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 He was linked with the job. I don't know any more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfred Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 Correct He was given the job but there was either an insistence that he had to retain Buckle's back room staff or he wasn't allowed to bring his own people in. SO'D turned the opportunity down from that point. As lucky escapes go, this has to be up there with the luckiest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opeth67 Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 A Bristol Rovers supporter told me that Alex Ferguson applied for one of the many vacancies at the club years ago. Said he was looking for a challenge as he felt he had done it all at Man Utd. When Fergie was offered the role he turned it down because he said even he wasn't THAT good.

I dont blame Fergie one bit for turning down this particular challenge.. treated like a contestant on The Apprentice.....it was a bloody cheek asking him to flog pegs in the car-park.
