No, but we all know from our own jobs that some people can be promoted beyond their level of competence. I always find it interesting to compare his approach to that of the opposition manager during the match. I have said before that I think he spends (or rather, wastes) too much time and energy on the match officials and does not give enough advice and encouragement to our team. I have been astonished to see him out of the dressing room and on the pitch or in the dug-out after only a few minutes of the half-time interval during some matches. I realise that he could be handing over the half-time team talk to Jimmy Bell but it does make me wonder.
