Nohairdontcare Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Apologies if this has been mentioned elsewhere - but Irish Independent reporting that our assistant manager is now the NI under 21 boss. Beat competition from Warren Feeney to get the gig. So Shez now in a position to get himself a new second in command. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He parted ways with Barnsley and that was the end I think. Rumour is ghat he has done some scouting for us so has no apparent ban from football.

I'd imagine the answer is yes - but would Sheridan want him enough as his number 2 to go along with that? I doubt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twisbrogan Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 If Barraclough moves on, I reckon Shirtliff will come back or, even more likely, Crossley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philliggi Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Harbin would get my vote he was the key behind Dowies success. Is it true he has been to games? First I've heard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsslatic Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 John Harbin's name coming up is as sure a sign of summer coming as the clocks moving forward and the pollen count being reported. Scott Vernon thread, anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nohairdontcare Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 As an aside, it appears that OWTB has beaten local media to this news - not exactly watergate granted, but a nice little scoop none the less! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeslover Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I thought it was a real bonus that Robinson had been scouting lower leagues for talented players with NI eligibility. Not sure it paid dividends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnafoafc Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 (edited) Always thought Barraclough would move on in the summer as he wasn't Shez's appointment. I expected Shez to appoint his own man in due course. I expected Barraclough to link up with Robinson again once he got the Motherwell gig. Wright would have to eat a bit of humble pie coming back here. During the sting he was recorded as saying words to the effect that he was fed up of driving hundreds of miles to scout for bargain basement deals. Something he'd have to get used to doing again in he returned to BP Edited April 25, 2017 by johnafoafc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Thought Harbin lived in Australia? Shirtliff best option IMO.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
