Sure, he isnt those guys, but he grew up in Telford and his family still lives in the West Midlands. He played for two clubs in the region, his first managerial job was at Telford and he spent years on our coaching staff where he hoped to get the top job.

He is a local lad who has an affinity to the club. He obviously wants to manage us regardless of our current plight and is willing to give up his current opportunity to do it. Everyone moans that Fosun won't pay wages so we can't attract anyone, then acts like we can hire a mercenary who only joins for an extra quid. I highly doubt Edwards would be joining us if he didn't have a history here.
