I think where most clubs go wrong when recruiting new managers is that the recruit them from stable well-run clubs with a bit of cash to spend… the wonder why they struggle when they come to their own skint basket case. We should actually be looking to recruit a manager who hasn’t performed as you’d expect them to perform, but who has massively overachieved, who has defied the circumstances of the club and the dodgy squad they’ve been placed in charge of. That’s the best preparation for taking over our club. For me, Danny
Rohl at Sheff Weds has done an amazing job - took over a club that was already down, somehow kept them up and - rather than doing an Everton and simply trying to repeat the same thing the next season - has now got them up into mid table and with their fans believing he’ll get them promoted before long. That’s a proper manger.
