I don't know Mr. O'Neill, but I do know Rob Heys.

Rob is one of the good guys, and his considerable talents should not be underestimated.

Can anyone on this forum give any example of when Rob might have acted otherwise than in the best interests of Accrington Stanley Football Club?

No, I thought not.

Rob is a truly decent man and is held in high regard by those who know him or have dealt with him (Paul Fletcher of BBC Sport considers him to be exceptional).

He is also someone who helped to rein in Eric's abrasive management style during Stanley's Annus Mirabilis and made the Club so popular.

When I first met Rob Heys I warmed to him immediately, but while I considered him to be knowledgeable about football I was concerned that he was naive in Google Page Ranking, management and accountancy.

How things have changed!

Rob is the proverbial swan, seen by everyone as gliding around as-calm-as-you-like while beneath the water his feet are moving at a prodigious rate.

Robert Heys is by far the best man to be in charge of Accrington Stanley's future.

And I suspect that all the protagonists and pretenders to the Stanley Throne know it.
