What has Michael Duff said?

Speaking about Moore and Wednesday ahead of the game, Barnsley boss Michael Duff has told BBC Radio Sheffield: “Darren deserves loads of credit. He is a good manager full stop. Was he terrible when they got beat 4-0? No. And he’s become a better manager because of the belief he gave them.

“I saw the video of him in the dressing room and the things he showed them, it’s good management. There’s one thing he has done the whole season and that is keep his counsel. He is a good fella. I don’t know what he is like as a manager day-to-day but you take people as you find them. We’ve beaten them twice and both times he has been humble.”
