Other clubs have plenty of "football men" but they still appoint the likes of S G Erikson, Steve McLaren, Paul Ince etc etc. Football is littered with poor managerial appointments by so-called "football men". Some of these are, in fact, a case of good manager in wrong job, for example Roy Hodgson at Liverpool. In terms of resources and facilities, Accrington Stanley is a rather quirky club. The appointment must be made by an "Accrington Stanley man" - someone who has a deep knowledge of what makes this proud club tick.
