If its between Van der Gaag and Barraclough it would have to be Barraclough for me. The fact he is currently working as a scout in the English Championship would mean he would be very knowledgeable of the lower english leagues where I think is our best chance to bring in players who could quickly find their feet and help us climb the league table. His managerial career seems pretty decent albeit in the Irish league compared to that of van der gaag whos best finish was 5th with maritimo, hardly something to shout about. I'm just glad that Butcher, Adams and Shiels seem to be out the running!
