Paul Ince named as Rovers boss

Paul Ince has agreed a 3 year deal at Ewood Park to be the new Blackburn Rovers manager. Ince, 40, takes his first Premiership managerial role after cutting his teeth with Macclesfield and the MK Dons in the lower divisions.

Once Ince became the firm favourite last week the other contenders dropped out of the running. Steve McLaren opted to manage in Holland, Sam Allardyce pulled out of the race and shock latecomer Michael Laudrup went just as quick as he came.

Dood luck to Paul Ince. He has a tought job to follow the stability Mark Hughes has brought to the club. We wish him well.
