Fairclough cautious in manager hunt
Barnet,
Last updated:
Barnet director of football Paul Fairclough is keeping an open mind over how best to fill the vacant manager's role at Underhill.
The Bees are still searching for a successor to Martin Allen, whose short-term contract expired after he ensured survival in npower League Two on the last day of the season.
Fairclough told BBC London 94.9: "We're taking it very seriously who we actually appoint. We've obviously not had the formula right for the last few years so we may do things a bit differently.
"We're at a moment in time where we've almost got a blank piece of paper. The club is moving forward and it's well known we've got a year left at Underhill.
"I've been looking at various models around the country. I want to get away from the scenario where the manager is the be-all and end-all of the club.
"Once I've found a couple of suitable candidates, I'll introduce those people to the chairman."
