On Monday, April 22, ex-Queen’s Park and Dumbarton defender Neill Collins was removed from his post as manager of Barnsley with just a single game left to play in the main League One season. Following this, a slew of head coaches have been linked with the job, including a smattering of former Rangers, Aberdeen and Hibs bosses.
