Echo News Barnet boss Darren Currie

[GBJ]

Seems the third person is Tilly. As much as I love Tilly I’m not sure how I would feel about him getting the no.1 job. It could be a master stroke or an absolute disaster!

I love Tilly. For me he was easily the best manager this club has had during my 25-years of support.

But now isn’t the right time for him to take the reigns. Don’t get me wrong, he’ll get my full support if he does, and I’ll have everything crossed that he does the business.

But this season has all the potential to be a ****show, and I don’t want to see another legend have his reputation tarnshied due to things beyond his control.

Look like peoples have chucked in money on Fagen ?

 

[bazzashrimper]

Personally, I don’t see the attraction with Fagan getting the job. A popular guy who has done a good job with the u23s, granted. It’s a leap to management of the first team. Good luck to him if he gets it of course, but I’d rather Currie. Or Barrett, and I know Barrett has similar experiences, but he’s a leader of men.

If we do go Fagan, then he needs someone with experience to help him on the off the field stuff, either an assistant or an experienced ceo

My I ask where you have come by this intelligence .

It would be ironic if we were to appoint Currie as manager and Barnet approach Fagan for their vacant post.

A little birdie told me......

  Spoiler:  

Southend United in talks with at least three managerial candidates

SOUTHEND United are still in talks with at least a trio of candidates to be their next manager.

Tilson getting the job would give me a warm feeling, like chasing whisky with ice cold beer.

Perhaps Tilly as Director of Football

I get jealous when I see Bournemouth and brentford both similar size clubs to us Brentford with they great new stadium .And us going backwards I would just be happy to have a southend United in the league by the end of next season .We have really gone back wards .We have so much potential massive catchment area its very sad

for me it would be a move backwards, he has been out of the game to long and didnt do much after leaving us. I am so thankgul for his successes shut now is the time to appoint a young manager with modern ideas, maybe with St as his number 2

Im sure he'd do ever so well, and probably get the rub of the green.

Could be funny timing but Lee Johnson, a well respected coach at Barnet has left today after 3 years and a “let’s see what the future holds” comment further down on his Twitter account. I fancy RM is getting all his eggs lined up before the announcement, which makes sense to me and I reckon early next week we have some news!

I think Johnson's departure is more to do with the collapse of Barnet's academy than anything else.

If I'm reading Sky Bet correctly it's saying that betting on Darren Currie becoming our new manager has been suspended.
Do we finally have our man?

It’s probably because they’ve received a few bets on him today (I whacked a tenner on it myself), and now they need to recalculate the odds.

From my experience, if they’ve got wind of a decision being made, they’ll suspend the entire market not just a singular option.

I have been keeping an eye on the William Hill odds and it looks like they've stopped taking bets on this... not showing as suspended though, it's just not on the site anymore

Fagan still hot favourite and I put £10 on Currie. I bet Ron Martin probably give his mate £20k to put an bet on Tilson at 16-1 then get him in as manager to pay off players wages for September ?

Yep, but he can easily send his mate off to couples of bookies ?
