    <h2>Ince Already Facing Mutiny - Reports</h2><div id="printsaveline"><div id="storyinfo">Posted 05/08/08 09:02</div>EmailPrintSave </div>

    Blackburn Rovers players are reportedly on the verge of mutiny after losing faith in Paul Ince just weeks after his appointment as the club's manager. </p>

    </p>

    Ince has never managed a Premier League side before and, at the age of 40, is one of the youngest bosses in the league. According to The Daily Mail, he is already struggling to quell the threat of a rebellion after disillusioning his players 'by the way he has tried to impose his personality on the club'. </p>

    </p>

    'Some players have been less than enthusiastic about Ince's approach to training, which is said to vary drastically from Hughes's meticulous, scientific method, while others have complained that the former Manchester United midfielder is too egotistical,' the newspaper reports. </p>

    </p>

    David Bentley, who has since left the club, is reported to have walked out of training in disgust after being ordered to do 20 press-ups 'as punishment for having his arms folded'. </p>

    </p>

    An unnamed but 'senior player' is quoted as complaining: &quot;We've gone from a well-organised, well-drilled back-room staff to one that feels like it's been patched together. A lot of us wanted to give him a chance to see how it worked out, but it's not looking too good.&quot;</p></div>

    It was too soon for him to manage a Premier Club. Incey always had the arrogance though.

    any club who who wishes to promote a recently retired ex footballer as manager, esp one with such notable intellect (yeah), deserves trouble and strife.

    Never forgiven him for his antics at Oakwell when he played for Liverpool in the "Willardgate" game in '98.
