OLDHAM Athletic boss Lee Johnson has been appointed as the new manager at Barnsley.
Swindon Town chief Mark Cooper was linked to the vacancy at Oakwell last week in the wake of Danny Wilson’s sacking and the County Ground club are understood to have turned down an official approach for his services.
The Tykes have swiftly moved their attentions elsewhere and have appointed Johnson on a three-and-a-half-year contract.
