not even half 8

i really hope he does score at least 3 goals though and is a mighty, mighty success for us, on the otherhand, if he isn't it's not going to look good for Duffy's chances of getting the job

no doubt this was being looked into before Granty went, so Duffy probably agreed with the move for him anyway, and as the OS says it's for one month initially so if the new manager isn't happy with him then it won't be extended till January
