Description
John Williams, the Blackburn Rovers chief executive, last night said the club’s model of going for young and unproven managers could work once again after appointing Paul Ince on a three-year-contract and making him the first black British Premier League manager. Williams said his and Ince’s paths had never crossed before the departure earlier this month to Manchester City of Mark Hughes, whom Williams already knew as a former Rovers player before hiring him as manager.
