Managerial Career
Law was made Football in the Community officer with Chesterfield before taking over as manager from John Duncan in the spring of 2000. The change was too late to save the Spireites from relegation in 1999–2000, but with some shrewd signings by Law, the team dominated Division Three in 2000–01 and led the table, until the pressures of the Football League enquiry into financial irregularities started to impact on performances. Despite a nine-point deduction, Law nevertheless led Chesterfield to third place and automatic promotion to Division Two.
He has since managed Bradford City, Grimsby Town and Buxton before being appointed to his current role.
On 14 May 2007 he was appointed as manager of Alfreton Town. In March 2008 he was set to return to Bradford as manager of Bradford Park Avenue, until Park Avenue were forced to call off the deal and apologise to Alfreton Town.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
