Let’s make Prem race Brit special

I LIKE Jaap Stam and David Wagner, and it’s nice to see some younger, fresher names cutting their teeth as managers.

So I was delighted that their Reading and Huddersfield sides reached the Championship play-off final. In Wagner’s case, I’m certain he’ll be part of a rising trend of clubs appointing men who once assisted the so-called super-managers.

Having a mate around to bounce ideas off — and loan players from — can be very important.

But I’d also love to see British managers of a similar age to them given the same chances by clubs in and around the Championship play-off places.
