Apparently, on Huddersfield forum, McCann was interviewed this week or maybe last week for the Managers post

Which one of the McGann brothers?

I’d be surprised if that was true.

Football managers, in work, getting interviewed for jobs if an odd one. Surely it can only be done with permission of the club.

  If he has been interviewed he could be on a sticky wicket with our owner who demands loyalty above everything else.
  And rightly so. If its true he isn't fully concentrating on his job here at a critical time for the coming season as simple as that.
 And if he has done it without permission  as Gaz pointed out that really is a risk he has taken, hopefully not.
  I don't want Grant to go personally and hope this is not true, but if he has done it without permission he would be gone tomorrow for me.
  If he has permission good luck to the lad, and I suppose the club will be looking for considerable compensation.

Yes, TB didn't take too kindly to Moore wanting to speak to Wednesdays allegedly saying something like "Well, if you want to leave, you'd better make sure you get the job." (In other words, don't bother coming back).

I remember Gavin saying that when an offer came in for a player from a bigger club they first asked the player whether he would be interested.I guess they have a similar agreement with Grant since it is a matter of mutual respect
Gavin openly said last week he would love the Northern Ireland club job .

Cant see it myself. GM is talking to potential signings and has a full year left on his contract that HTFC would need to stump up to DRFC in order to get GM.

Conspiracy theories, don't you just love them.

Having said that, I'm almost certain I saw Lord Lucan riding Shergar the other day.

I don't think he's going, but the fact he's talking to signings means nothing. Last time he left he released a load of players before failing to secure any replacements, and left us a bit stuffed.

*one of those replacements was Middleton however, so maybe it wasn't all bad

Its funny isnt it, quite a few fans were moaning about Mccann.

It would be a nightmare for the club if he did leave.

Be careful what you wish for

Just shite spouted because there's nowt else for us or others not in play offs to do.

Nice to know you have such a thorough insight to Rovers and every other EFL clubs finances and recruitment strategies, care to tell us the 7 players we will be adding to our squad and their cost?

I don’t really understand the talk around Molyneux being highly sought after.

Had an ok season in his first at this level.

Bailey yes.

I really struggle believing this McCann rumour.

He did secure replacements, or at least one signed a day or two before he left, can’t remember his name but it was the lad from Alicante

Madger Gomes?

Wasn't Ben Sheaf signed just before McCann left too?

Sheaf signed about a month after McCann left, and Moore was the manager.

Given what he inherited I always thought Moore did an exceptional job.

I’m just being a realist , I hope none of them leave to be honest their is some very touchy gits on here at times.

The only thing i can tell you is our recruitment strategy in League 1 looks brighter than the weather

Grant lined the Ben Sheaf deal up, he has mentioned this numerous times. Whilst he went to a much bigger job, he felt regret over the players he had convinced to come to DRFC

Speaking of touchy gits, I see there’s a post about Niall Mason.

Holliday, James and Sheaf were lined up by McCann but finalised by Moore.
