Eddie Hitler Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 Billy Davies is available and still only 59. He sounds an ideal candidate to maintain Barton's legacy. Not talking to the media, sacking long serving staff, employing personal cronies.ย Yep, all very Bartonesque. ย Davies' second spell [at Nottingham Forest] proved to be a controversial and damaging one.[9] He dismissed long-serving club staff without explanation, shouted at a photographer taking photos for the club's matchday programme after a match at Millwall, banned journalists as part of a "near media blackout", and employed his cousin, Jim Price, a suspended solicitor, as his closest advisor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Davies ย And he's keen to return to management, this from last month. BILLY DAVIES wants a return to football management โ and is keen on a job in England. https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/23987963/billy-davies-management-return-forest-derby/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
