Brian Barry-Murphy must try and steer Rochdale out of a battle relegation

The club are in the League 1 relegation places, inside the drop zone on goal difference. The ex-Cork City defender’s first game in charge is at home to Sunderland this weekend.

During his career in England, after moving from Cork City in 1999, Barry-Murphy played for Preston, Sheffield Wednesday and Bury before moving to Rochdale.
