Nail on the head :)

Football man, Accrington Stanley man whatever you call him who is there with the experience to make the right call.

Re: The King is gone = new management, who?

Setting out what your criteria is, budgets, short term plans, long term plans are probably the easy ones to sort out even on the football side of things the Club I am sure can seek guidance should there be a need.

As others have said Coley grew with the job to the point where in ways he probably outgrew the job.

For the Club he became more than just a manager alongside Jimmy they also became the figureheads,ambassadors and the heartbeat of the Club with their interviews for the press and interactions with us the fans.

There is a real challenge for their succesors to carry on and build on the legacy that John & Jimmy have left, the one thing we have got on our side is time and a wealth of experience between Leam, Bryan & Phil alongside the players already knowing them and also having their support alongside that of us the fans could yet mean the Club need search no further?

What "experience" are you expecting? There was plenty of "experience" at Liverpool but they still appointed Roy Hodgson. I happen to believe there are people at the club who will be well aware of what will be required of a new manager for Accrington Stanley. I am also willing to accept they may not make the right call, not because of any lack of experience but simply because that's what sometimes happens. The seemingly "ideal" person appointed to a job proves to be less than ideal once they start doing that job. As Pendle Red has said, Coley grew with the job. I wonder if anyone realised that's what would happen when he was appointed.

Re: The King is gone = new management, who?

Reports here in Sligo tonight that Rovers have given Paul Cook permission to talk to Stanley.

Later report says permission not given - but doesn't say he's not speaking to them.

Make of it what you will.
