Day Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Barnsley have dismissed manager Simon Davey following a disappointing run of results at the start of the season. The Tykes have managed to progress to the third round of the Carling Cup but they have struggled in the Championship. A 2-2 draw with Yorkshire rivals Sheffield Wednesday on the opening day of the season has been followed by four straight losses and Barnsley are currently bottom of the table. Davey admitted after Saturday's 3-1 defeat at home to Reading that he felt the same frustration as the supporters. However, he will not get the chance to try and turn the situation around as club bosses have decided to remove him from his position. Barnsley will now look to get a new man in place ahead of their next Championship fixture against Watford on 12th September. Davey took charge at Oakwell in 2006 and steered the club to the semi-finals of the FA Cup in 2007/8.

Perky1106 Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Coppell, Boothroyd and Curbishley will be likely candidates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 I can only see Boothroyd out of those 3 as real possibilities for Barnsley, wouldn't be surprised if Jewell was interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
