Darren C made an excellent suggestion on the radio the other night. Why not a Director of Football to take all the crap off Jimbo and to allow him to concentrate purely on the coaching of the team? Dickie Danson as Director with Drummy as Assistant Coach?

I'm most concerned about the suggestion being Steve Burr of Kiddie could be in the frame ???
Personally, I'd like Graham Alexander with Jimbo as his number two (until such a time he IS ready to step up). Alexander was someone I had not given a thought to til someone on here brought it up, but it now sounds like a masterplan.

There are two big advantages to Alexander. One - he could still be a decent player at our level. Two - he is likely to have a hell of a lot of connections, including our near neighbours, Burnley and Preston.
Other than that though I see him as as big a gamble as Bentley due to his lack of experience. Having them both would probably not work.

Or even... if Sammy & Mark don't have something else lined up, Jimbo as manager with Mark being the steady father figure as assistant?
