BARRY-MURPHY THE CHOSEN ONE…BUT

Barry-Murphy is thought to be ready to utilise those youngsters as part of a Cardiff revolution as the club re-sets following relegation into League One.

His only previous spell as a manager was with Rochdale. Barry-Murphy did well to keep them in the League for two seasons, before Rochdale were relegated.

However, the manager won plaudits for the style of play he implemented and the work performed with home-grown talent.

It is felt he is a coach who will improve young players and that can only be good for Cardiff’s crop of gifted youngsters, as well as Wales, as they could feature many times for their country in the coming years.

Plymouth are also keen on landing Barry-Murphy, but we understand he is excited by the prospect of unlocking the huge potential at Cardiff and has accepted the offer to come to Wales.

First, however, Leicester need to agree to his exit, with Cardiff keen to make the formal announcement.

I hope this is now a formality, as we need certainty and momentum now!

After reading about him, I’ve warmed to the idea of BB-M taking the reins at the CCS with our youngsters, and whilst some people will never be happy, I think this is as sound an appointment as this club has made since Neil Warnock in footballing terms

I’ve warmed to him as well Chris but be prepared for the usual barrage of toxic negativity on here.

I’m a glass half full type so I’m ready to support and look forward hopefully!

It’s been a shambles of a recruitment process but at last it looks like ending

I’m actually quite excited if this appointment does actually happen

Managed at lower level, run the Man City Academy and coached a Premier League team so he has actually got a fair bit of experience

We are weeks behind other teams in our preparations but let’s hope that the recruiting team have done their work over the last few months and have identified a few targets

Next season is a massive season for us and while I’m certainty not convinced we are going straight back up let’s hope we actually get some plans in place for the future

The academy boys are obviously going to play a bit part next season and I’ve seen enough already to think we have 3 or 4 highly promising players ready to step up

Its a done deal

so some say hes got experience

so managed at lower level - eventually got rochdale relegated

worked at man city academy ?

worked at leicester - got relegated

involved in 2 relegations , going for his hat rick is he !!

we got a belter !!!!

I think Peps disciples have all done well.

Arteta’s first management job was Arsenal.

I hope he's got a coaching team with him don't want purse being involved

Really excited by this appointment.
It's just what we need. Hopefully he will have a good team around him

Imagine shooting him down before he's had a run of games!

It'll either work out, or it wont. At least let him get the tracksuit on!!

For me, a progressive recruitment. More potential than demonstrated experience; but that is my only concern.

I'm behind him.

He is highly praised for being able to bring the best out of younger players, could he be the guy to finally unlock rubin,s undoubted full potential, if he can then he could tear league 1 to pieces

Totally agree.

The reaction by some people is laughable.

Not as a manager though! On the same topic, would you rule out Cooper with the logic (team was still struggling)?

The Premier League’s weakest teams outside of the promotion teams were Spurs and Man Utd, nobody was staying up.

As for Rochdale, nobody was keeping them up.

It’s hilarious that some of the people complaining were in 100% support of Ramsey…

Ramsey, with less experience, no full-time coaching experience, also has a “relegation” on his CV (can make the same excuses for BBM with Rochdale).

Take off the Cardiff-tinted glasses and you wouldn’t even go there.

The biggest positive is his experience at Man City and the potential connections that could help bring in some quality young loan players; that’s a real asset.

My main concern is his lack of managerial experience, but we’ll have to see what he can bring to the role. It’s a good opportunity, and we’ve got a decent squad that’s underperformed. This is a chance to reset, rebuild, and with the right approach, we should be aiming to bounce straight back up to the Championship.

Not comparing him at all, don’t really know him.
Great coach by all accounts…..
Just stating facts between the negatives.

All I know is that he’s got 3 first names
So he must be special

He’s back


Can you Blame anyone after the continued Shit we’ve had???

We’ve waited 7 weeks and still not confirmed.

Tan has put at least 12 Shit managers in.

You name all Tans Good managers he’s actually appointed out of 16?

Only a Tan fan would believe in Tan choice


You warmed to Riza anyone Tan choses

I did not want Ramsey.

I wanted tried and tested lower league manager with Good Credentials

But under Tan, Not a chance.

I will give who ever is chosen a chance, but is not best to be honest if your not happy with the choice??

Some are just Tan Nodders still after everything he has done to our Club.

I know you didn’t Annis, and I’m with you on that.

But I am excited about BBM, think he can do a lot with this squad. But I hope he has a stance and won’t bow to Tan.

Since BBM left Rochdale he clearly has been involved with coaching of some top quality youngsters at Man City and more recently clearly has the confidence of Van Nistlerooy being his coach for the first team squad. They were as good as relegated when he arrived and interestingly Andy King also joined them as coach in February. Leicester will be looking to revamp their management and when Cardiff talk to them about releasing BBM there will probably be others available for him to consider bringing in for his team. From what I can see BBM was a senior coaching role under Van Nistelrooy and well above the level at Cardiff. He is well thought of in coaching circles and hopefully Tan will support him both on and off the pitch. Of all the names being considered it does look as though BBM is the pick of the bunch. Plenty of contacts to call upon so the sooner the better he is in position.

It doesn't matter who the manager is the reaction will be the same let's have experience of div 1 does that mean managed or promoted in d 1? Inexperienced managers have as much success as experienced ones... you actually get the best man for the job the club needs whether he's experienced or not.

How many of Tans managers have got us promoted in the last 15 years

How well have All His recent managers done?

The managers it’s not their Fault.

As long Tan is here and makes the decisions we are fucked in the long term.

Be interesting to see who picks the backroom staff.

Hopefully BBM gets to choose his own backroom staff

I didn't want Ramsey. I would have been happy with Dave Challiner, Des Buckingham, Ian Evatt, Richie Wellens, Rob Edwards or even Neil Warnock again.

You can't say Ramsey's and BBM's relegations were similar. Ramsey had 3 games and BBM had 3 seasons.

You can have as many seasons as you want, if your team is awful, only so far you can go.

Rochdale were never gonna improve with no further investment.

Rob Edwards in League One? Nice one

Warnock? Come on let’s move on.

Buckingham id be happy with.

But BBM could to do well here, give him a chance!
