Barry Ferguson inspired by former Alloa managers
The former Rangers captain is the new Alloa Athletic manager
New Alloa manager Barry Ferguson says he's taking inspiration from their former bosses.
The 43-year old left Kelty Hearts this week to take over at the Indodrill Stadium.
The former Rangers captain says he plans on taking them straight back up to the Championship - and admits the success of Jack Ross and Jim Goodwin made the decision to join the club easy.
"If you look over the years and the managers that have been here. The likes of Paul Hartley, Jim Goodwin and Jack Ross.
"They've always have good managers who have progressed in the game.
"Once I met the chairman and saw the facilities, I knew it’s the right club at the right time.
"My sole aim in the next year is to try and get straight back into the Championship. I’ve spoken to one or two players.
"I’ll get round all the boys in the next couple days. There’s a good core of players already signed up.
"If I can go add a good bit of quality to go and help those players… the players already signed up are players I rate very highly… Hopefully in the next week or two we’ll see players coming in".
