With the possibility of a cup final and top 6 football/Europe, I'm not overly concerned at this story from such an unreliable source...

ok guys, whether butcher goes or not heres what going to happen:

 

im going to become ict manager

 

we will win the champions league.

Not wanting to sound obsessed with Bookmakers' odds but they are usually a good gauge. These guys have sources - after all it's their business and livelihood. You never see a poor bookie (unless of course you happen to be a small Turf Accountant in Fort William and a horse called Ben Nevis wins the National!)

Anyway, the odds are moving favourably...8/13 now on Butcher for Barnsley (approx 62% chance of leaving). But significantly, Micky Mellon's odds have been massively cut. He's a Paisley born manager who guided Fleetwood Town from obscurity into the Football League before being sacked prematurely last month.

"Micky Mellon"

 

Sounds like a character in Viz!

The odds on Terry are lengthening now. Surely the compensation aspect of things will be a factor?

But then there is Doncaster, Blackburn and Blackpool. There is no chance that Barnsley will risk it with Mellon.

Blackpool?

I thought Appleton was recently appointed no?

Blackpool?

I thought Appleton was recently appointed no?

No .

He is already under severe fan pressure and will probably suffer as he loses most of his main men in the transfer window. The Pool fans have never wanted him and are letting it be known. There is going to be a realm managerial merry go round soon.

 

Blackpool?

I thought Appleton was recently appointed no?

No .

 

Yes.

I do apologise . Thought they'd sacked him , wont be long before they do IMHO .

Probably.

IHE seems to be hinting at that too.

As long as they leave our club alone I don't give two hoots who they have in charge!  Or anyone else for that matter.

Rumours going round that compensation between Barnsley and ICT has been agreed.

 

Sounds like Terry Butcher and Maurice Malpas have left the building.

The rats may have left the ship but it will not sink.

Rumour mongers on Twitter have him going and compensation has been agreed.   time will tell

Just the general social networks (I know I know!)!

 

Hence the reason I said "rumours"!

Just twitter chat/crap I hope.

Better managers have left ICT and have been successfully replaced. Onwards and upwards. The compensation will come in useful and if we secure an ambitious young manager his salary will be less than Butcher's maybe freeing up some cash for the club.

I still remain confident in my assessment of the situation....Butcher is going nowhere.

There ain't much difference between Barnsley and Nowhere !!

ill be more confident about the rest of this season if he does go.

 Careful, Gatepost will be after you for saying bad things about Barnsley!!!

explain?

im not buying the nice guy routine, nor am i putting any stock in his high profile playing career, hes a poor tactician and the majority of his stay in inverness has hardly been spectacular.

 

hes signed good players and thats about it, obviously the current squad like him and malpas but they can be replaced.

 

a good shake up will put an end to my fears of complacency.  even if a player or two go, i think we'll still finish the year strong no matter who is in charge.

 

next season could be another matter lol

Radical.....get rid of your Manager and Coaching team when things are going well just in case it's a fluke!!!
