imo this was an odd decision to employ him in the first place - regardless of his undoubted relevance to the clubs history. Couldnt really see what his role was supposed to be given the roles of Andy Last and Steve Crooks.
I reckon SC is a strong character and as much as FC appear to be hell bent on devaluing his role, his roots within the club go much deeper than some would think.
When you think he's (SC) had the academy finance taken away from him and given to Mel Harmon, his so-called "problems" of last year allied with his apparent demotion from pitchside first team duties and then a former player given a role fabricated once again to (seemingly for him I'm sure) undermine his standing I think a lesser character would have had enough by now. Steve Crooks it seems is made of sterner stuff.
Not sure this employment was done for that reason but there does appear to be lots of coincidence there
