Yep, the good new managers have to come from somewhere.
We don't have a great record with first time managers though, Spink, Owers and Hockaday weren't exactly wildly successful. We don't have a huge amount of footballing knowledge on our board, so the chances are a flashy presentation and impressive technical wording/statistical analysis will be enough to dazzle them.
Vince has said he wants a modern, progressive young coach, when for me, the best route to success at this level is someone who really knows the division. Otherwise you're basically taking a punt and hoping someone can adjust from coaching elite kids to coaching senior pros over a long gruelling season on heavy pitches.
