Paul Ince is back at MK Dons and expectations are sky high.

The departure of Roberto Di Matteo to West Bromwich Albion cleared the path for a return for Ince, who has taken a six month sabbatical since his departure from Blackburn.

During his 12-month stint previously he guided the Dons to the League Two title, as well as winning the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy in a memorable campaign.

The lure of the Premier League proved irresistible for Ince, but it soon turned sour as he was dismissed within six months by Blackburn having won just six games in charge.

However, having worked the oracle at Macclesfield Town to keep them in the Football League and subsequently becoming the most successful manager in MK Dons’ history, his reputation is still intact.

And he is looking to enhance it once again after being given another opportunity by Chairman Pete Winkleman who is in no doubt he has made the right decision.

“I’m absolutely thrilled to be able to bring Paul back to Milton Keynes,” he said.

“He enjoyed incredible success during his first spell with us and showed himself more than worthy of a shot at the Premier League.

“But we always felt he had unfinished business here and it feels absolutely right that he should return to the club and build on the very momentum he helped to create.”
