I think he'd be alright, but like you say has he been marred in the player's eyes as part of the dysfunctional Team Jolley?

Choosing a new manager is always a lottery but doesn't this remind anyone of when we last chose an ex town player ?

Surely we can find a manager who's had some success, even for a limited time? To appoint a person who's had one go and failed would be a massive gamble in my opinion.
I read somewhere that Chris has done a good job at the Bristol Rovers Academy but if that qualifies we may as well reappoint Neil Woods, his record is identical to Hargreaves. How would everyone feel about that?

I am not in the least bit whelmed by the prospect of Chris Hargreaves as manager.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Agreed. Totally different remit and purpose to the role. Academy manager is there to produce players for the first team. The focus isn't on results of their games, as Woodsy alluded to in a recent interview.

You could also add Jolley to the list of Managers coming from Academy backgrounds. Although I'd question question how legit some of the coaching experience listed on his CV is after learning a few things of late and how he never stayed anywhere very long.
