The intent of this thread is not designed to have a shot at the power, more so I was interested in people's view on ex players moving straight in to a coaching role at the club they played for
Last year Port appointed Primus as a full time assistant and I believe Kingsley has also been appointed for a full time role for 2007
The benefit is they know the structure, culture and players personalities, ego's etc
But the negative, do they bring anything new to the club, fresh idea's, a fresh pair of eyes, a completely unbias opinion
My thoughts have always been you need to step away and experience a different environment before you take up a role at the club you played for, I'm interested in other people's thoughts
