Basically if it goes west and we go down he will be off
Seems sensible from the board's perspective. If he can't keep us up then he has failed and we can get rid of him without having to pay up the rest of his contract. Also shows that he is confident enough to think he will be successful.

What if we do class and another club come in for him in the Summer? Can he just leave?

Probably unless the break is just for the club which is unlikely but possible. It all depends on the contract.

Excellent comments made by him. Seems confident, positive and keen to engage the supporters. Ticking the boxes at this early stage :scarf:

Makes little difference in those circumstances. Look at Evatt

Welcome and I look forward to you helping us stay up 😀. Does the break clause also enable him to clear off if he gets a better offer from another club?
Just say no to VAR :sentoff:

Congratulations to whoever edited Jolley's Wikipedia entry to say this:-

"Michael Jolley (born 30 March 1977) is an English professional football coach and football manager who was most recently the manager of League Two club Grimsby Town but has now bettered himself and become manager of Barrow AFC."

Big difference. If we left because he was successful we wouldn't get any compensation.
