I think so and on better money than we could pay, I would imagine the Irish players will be disappointed. |  | |  |

He knew what he was letting himself for given the colossal amount of managers they have had, he probably thought a bit of decent winter sun and a nice top up to the pension. |  |

He'd have backed himself to sort it out there this year, he's not a mercenary like some......will be hurting and embarrassed. |  |

He knew the situation, he probably backed himself but knew deep down that history suggested he wouldn't last the term. |  |

Strange move from the outset for me, he still had credit in the bank from his time here and ROI, you would have thought any struggling Championship side would have moved for him. |  |

I don't think thats Mick, he went there to do a job, not to get one last pay out. He may well have come out of it ok, but he will be annoyed it didn't work out, at least for a few more months! |  |

He's got a great record at Hillsborough, across all clubs including here Wonder if after going for Pulis and sacking him quickly, whether Mick might want to give it a wide berth though |  |

I had heard there was a Championship club which was potentially lining him up in the summer but I got the impression he took the job because not much else had been offered to him. |  | |  |

hmmm... one of our senior managers is a massive wednesdayite and his words were "he can fck off, he hates us, and we hate him" must be the Barnsley thing lol |  |

There was talk up there than he was going to offered that in the summer but after discussions with people close to the club he didn’t want to take it due to the owner etc. |  |
