Accrington Stanley managers - book research
I am currently nearing extensive research for a forthcoming book about football managers and just wonder if any Accrington Stanley fanatic or historian could help me fill the gaps in the chronology of the club's managers' since the war : Can anyone tell me who took care of team affairs during the following periods :
March 1951 ( when Jimmy Porter left ) until June 1951 ( when Walter Crook was appointed ) March 1953 ( when Walter Crook left ) until June 1953 ( when Walter Galbraith was appointed ) August 1958 ( when Walter Galbraith left ) until October 1958 ( when George Graham was appointed ) I would be extremely grateful for any help and would be pleased to make the necessary acknowledgement in the book. Huge thanks in anticipation ! |

Re: Accrington Stanley managers - book research
Try this
Managers There probably weren't Managers during the spells you quote, I don't think they had caretaker managers in them days. By the way it's George Eastham not George Graham who took over from Walter Galbraith. |

Re: Accrington Stanley managers - book research
Hi Jeff, thanks for this and my apologies for my error re Eastham / Graham. Do you happen to know who might have taken care of team affairs during the periods mentioned if no caretaker / interim / temporary managers were appointed ? I know that it was not uncommon for club directors to take charge of clubs and wonder if this was the case with Accrington Stanley back then ? Huge thanks so far !

Re: Accrington Stanley managers - book research
memories not what it was, but i seem to think Jimmy Harrower could have been caretaker that period, not a big help soz.
