    I’m surprised he never continued managing. He was a steady manager in my opinion. Very liked by our fan base when he was sacked he had his name chanted once live on sky and he got emotional saying he wished he was still with us.

    He did continue managing. A few months after he was sacked at Barnsley, Huddersfield appointed him as their manager. He was relieved of his duties 12 months later.

    I see that but baffles me he gave up easy. Maybe he didn’t enjoy it and we were is only joy

    If you listen to any of the players who played for him in that team there wasn't much technical coaching going on. No shape etc. Just played a lot of 5 a side but the right blend of players (and culture) and good overall man-management.

    Always liked Ritchie and Holden.

    Never a dull moment and true we’re gonna score one more than you stuff.

    Thought he was hard done by and agree that it’s surprising AR didn’t stick at it for longer as a manager.
